What the records showRelated decisions, supporting records, and unanswered questions.
Strip Paving fell from $1,485,076 in 2023–24 to $368,682 in 2024–25. Meeting records describe paving being concentrated into the earlier year.
2023-2024 actual source · page 85 · 2024-2025 actual source · page 86
A February 9, 2024 finance memorandum says paving was not done in FY2022 and FY2023 and that the FY2025 allotment was planned for use in the current year. This supports a timing explanation for the uneven annual spending. February 2024 finance memorandum · page 18.
A May 8, 2024 Public Works memorandum proposed adding Tellico Avenue and deferring remaining Sweetfield Valley Road work. It estimated the revised project at $1,931,915.02 against a $2,040,000 purchase order. These are project estimates and an order amount, not payments. May 2024 paving scope memorandum · page 41.
The FY2024–25 amendment schedule assigns a $23,000 increase to this department’s retirement account (01-0903-5144), changing its budget from $25,000 to $48,000. This is its share of the $629,000 General Fund retirement increase, not a separately verified actual payment. Department pension amendment allocation · page 119.
The audited FY2025 discussion identifies the $629,000 retirement budget increase as an additional defined-benefit pension contribution. Audited pension amendment context · page 24.
Still unanswered: Invoices and payment dates are still needed to match the project costs to each fiscal year. The memoranda provide context, not a transaction-level reconciliation.
About these figuresWhat is included and what changed between reports.
The 2022-2023 column uses the complete later FY2025-26 account schedule; the older source column is archived. Its printed total is 415,031, compared with 415,030 in the older report. Later source detail differs from its printed total by -1; both are retained. FY2022-23 later detail rows sum to $415,030 but its printed total is $415,031. The selected older actual total $415,030 is retained. The $100 Steel account joins Asphalt in Materials for Road Repairs because their $26,307 overlap agrees exactly; later Concrete joins that road-materials reporting group. FY2022-23 detailed overlap differences (later minus earlier): Deferred Compensation +1; Gasoline & Diesel -1.
Amounts are shown as reported, without adjusting for inflation. A dash (“—”) means the source shows a dash or does not list a value; it does not necessarily mean zero. Related accounts are grouped for comparison, with available detail under each row.
