Finance Director Anna Montoya reported May 2020 bonds of $8.5 million for Fire Station 52 (land negotiations underway), $25.9 million secured from the Board of Water Resources for water line projects (financing of $22 million secured November 2020; 600 East work underway), a pressurized irrigation meter project estimated at $10 million with $3 million budgeted this year, sales and property tax revenue above expectations, the PARC tax fund up 19% giving $829,431 for May 2021 awards, and the final payment on the 2011 Station 51 bonds due June 2021. If the PARC tax is not renewed the city would have to subsidize $350,000 a year in Art Dye Park bond payments from 2024. A traffic signal at 620 South and 600 East will be paid with impact fees. TSSD phosphate limits could require a $12 million sewer plant change.
