To the Honorable City Council:

 

I respectfully request a supplemental appropriation of $75,000 to the Kennedy School Pool Enterprise Fund to replace a filter. The budgeted renovations exceeded initial budget projections due to contract pricing increases and intensity of work required once pool was drained. The pool filter unfortunately was unable to be replaced during the closure. Additionally, the replacement of filter exceeded projections due to demolition and removal costs required for new filter. This is the original filter in this facility.  It is beyond patch and repair. Unless a new filter is installed the Kennedy pool is a risk for future occupancy.

 

My staff will be available to address any questions you may have. Thank you for your consideration of this item.

 

Respectfully Submitted,

Joseph A. Curtatone, Mayor
