CITY COUNCIL MEMO
2026-3122
MEETING OF OCTOBER 6, 2026
TO: Mayor Rawn and City Council
THROUGH: Jennifer Walker, Chief of Staff
FROM: Tim Nyander, Utilities Director
SUBJECT: Budget Amendment - Fuel Accounts for WWTP's and Sewer Lift Stations
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of a budget amendment to transfer funds in the amount of $75,000.00 to the fuel
accounts for the City's wastewater treatment facilities to correct an overbudget and to provide additional funds
for fuel for the remainder of 2026.
BACKGROUND:
The fuel accounts for the Noland WWTP, West Side WWTP, and the sewer lift stations have used more
funding in 2026 due to increased unleaded and diesel fuel prices. Additional funding is needed to correct an
overbudget, and to allow for the continued purchase of fuel for the remainder of 2026.
DISCUSSION:
The fuel account for Noland WWTP is currently overbudget, and the fuel accounts for West Side WWTP and
the sewer lift stations do not have enough funding for the remainder of 2026. This budget amendment would
restore funding in the three accounts to correct the overbudget and provide funding for fuel for the remainder of
2026.
BUDGET/STAFF IMPACT:
Funds are available in the Plant Pumps and Equipment account to transfer $75,000.00 into the three WWTP
and sewer lift station fuel accounts.
