Title

Resolution - Approval of 2022 Budget Amendments for Capital Improvement Plan Expenditures - J Smith/K Jones

 

Other Info

Submitted By: Janelle Smith

Department: Finance

Financial Impact and Cost/Benefit Considerations: $0.8 Million in additional capital spend due to re-prioritization of capital projects between two capital expenditure categories and an additional $2.0 Million due to inflation.

 

Discussion

The Budget Policy requires amendments for certain levels of variances. The additional $4.2 Million in capital spend in category 500 (Substations - Change) resulted from alternative project completions, offset by projects unable to be completed in category 400 (Substations - New) in the amount of $3.4 Million, resulting in a net budget amendment of $0.8 Million Required. Additionally, capital spend in category 600 (Distribution - Miscellaneous Equipment) requires a budget amendment of $2.0 Million due to additional costs related to meters, road widenings, and reclosers.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the Chief Executive Officer or designee is authorized to take all such actions as needed to implement this resolution.
