CITY OF BREMERTON
CITY COUNCIL
SUBJECT: Parks and Recreation Dept
Budget Adjustment Request for the Purchase
of a Greenhouse.
Committee Meeting Date: October 25, 2006
COUNCIL MEETING Date: November 1,2006
Department: Parks & Recreation
Presenter: Wyn Birkentha1
Phone: 473-5752
SUMMARY: The Parks and Recreation Department has been providing the City's Harborside Park
Project with significant labor to do necessary landscaping work for the project and has received
$50,000 in additional revenues via interfund billings for this work. In addition, $4,721 has been
received as reimbursement for damages to Gateway trees by a private automobile. The Parks &
Recreation Department proposes that the revenues generated from the project landscaping support be
used to purchase materials and construct an additional greenhouse to accommodate growth in the
City's flower program. The additional Greenhouse will allow the Parks Department to expand the
flower program at the lowest possible ongoing cost by growing flowers in-house from seed and plugs.
The $4,721 dollar reimbursement will be used to replace damaged trees. The Gateway damage
reimbursement will refurbish the trees and landscaping to their pre-accident condition with no
materials cost to the City.
ATTACHMENTS: Qoute for Greenhouse to be constructed at Stephenson Canyon.
FISCAL IMPACTS (Include Budgeted Amount): A budget adjustment is necessary to provide
expenditure authority to construct the greenhouse and repair the trees damaged. Funds from the
interfund billing to the Harborside Park and from the reimbursement of damages will cover the
additional expenditures in 2006.
