Commission reviews finances; kayak rack cost and pump-out maintenance noted
A commissioner reported there were no outstanding issues in the expense report but called attention to recurring pump-out maintenance and a recent kayak rack purchase. The transcript records the kayak rack cost as $2,500.

The same speaker noted ongoing pump-out maintenance but the dollar amount in the transcript is unclear; the speaker said, "We spent about, $3 on that already this year, so that's something to keep an eye on." Because the figure in that line is ambiguous in the record, the exact maintenance expense was not specified. Commissioners said they will combine year-to-date budget reporting in future packets and monitor capital impacts from maintenance and repair work.

Next steps: Staff will provide year-to-date budget-versus-actuals in future meetings and monitor pump-out maintenance costs against capital reserves.
