Parks Garage Roof and Building Repairs

The old highway garage, now the parks garage, keeps leaking along its walls and has failing brick. The city is paying Excel Engineering $22,500 to assess the whole building before deciding on repairs — possibly a $1.5-million-scale project financed by borrowing.

DPW Highway Building Land Purchase Repayment

The city used pooled cash to buy land near the DPW and never formally budgeted it, leaving the DPW fund with a negative balance. The auditor flagged it; the council endorsed a ten-year, $129,000/year repayment with flexibility to pay it off faster — paying the city back, not a third party.
