PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
Not applicable to this Resolution.
BACKGROUND:
ARPA authorized a revenue replacement calculation that would allow state and local
governments to use a portion of ARPA allocation for governmental services. The
equipment requested is necessary to maintain the Pueblo Memorial Airport grounds.
The cost of the Groundmaster Mower is estimated at $149,769.93. The cost of the
Pneumatic Tire Forklift is estimated at $34,898.90. These estimates total $184,668.83;
however, the department is requesting payment of $200,000 to account for potential
price increases since the estimates were obtained. Any money not used for the
purchase of the equipment will be reallocated back to Project CI2113.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Funding in the amount of $200,000 will be paid out of Project Cl2113 - American
Rescue Plan.
