Title
A Resolution to Transfer Funds from Capital Purchases to Operating in Nature Parks
Summary
The Nature Parks Department requests to transfer $19,000 from the capital purchases account to the operating account. The FY24 approved capital purchases included a kayak rental kiosk budgeted at $25,000. After Finance Department review of the contract, it is technically a lease for the first five years. This expense would be a lease under the Operating Account, 100-5090-6042.The contract would allow Rent.Fun to install a four unit rental kiosk where they would maintain the facility, handle the rentals and maintain the liability insurance coverage. The city would receive 50% of the rental revenue from the kiosk.
