FROM: BRUNO RUMBELOW, CITY MANAGER ' i
MEETING DATE: AUGUST 4, 2015
SUBJECT: APPROPRIATION OF FUNDS TO QUALITY OF LIFE FUND
RECOMMENDATION:
City Council to consider an ordinance amending the Fiscal Year 2015-2016 budget of
the Community Quality of Life Capital Projects fund authorizing additional project
allocations in the amount of $270,006.29 and take any necessary action.
FUNDING SOURCE:
Funds are available in the undesignated Community Quality of Life fund balance.
This appropriation will add scoreboards at Bear Creek Park as well as sports lighting and
a precast restroom at The REC of Grapevine multi-purpose field. These projects were
planned for the future; however, due to the flood most lake park area fields in the City
will be unplayable this Fall and possibly in the Spring. Therefore, these projects have
been accelerated to facilitate practices and games for youth sports in Grapevine. These
items were reviewed with the City Council at the July 21 Workshop. Council supported
the request and asked staff to move ahead.
Staff recommends approval.
