Confirm the controlling transfer figure in the budget amendment
Why now: The identical motion language appeared for introduction on May 11, 2026 and for adoption on May 18, 2026 without the $100 Arena Administration appropriation being reconciled on the record.
What to do: The motion language recites an Arena Fund revenue total and a capital transfer total that differ by exactly $100 — the same amount appropriated for Arena Administration — so obtain the signed budget amendment exhibit and ask staff which figure controls before relying on the motion text in any funding certification or contract recital.
Act before: After the next material record update
Track arena roof, alarm and cooling system bid packages
Why now: Interim Director of Planning and Economic Development Jennifer Buxton presented those five project categories on May 18, 2026, and the board approved the operating budget amendment 4-0 on Item 4.
What to do: The staff presentation that accompanied this budget amendment itemized five distinct capital projects — arena exterior improvements, arena alarm system improvements, arena roof replacement, arena and convention center heating/cooling and chiller replacement, and Hilliard Center renovation — so position for five separate solicitations rather than one bundled award, and contact the Planning and Economic Development department now to confirm sequencing before scopes are written.
Act before: After the next material record update
Ask which arena repairs the Hilliard Center transfer covers
Why now: Jennifer Buxton's May 18, 2026 presentation listed the arena items alongside the Hilliard Center renovation, yet the motion text ties the capital transfer to Hilliard Center projects, and the item passed 4-0 with no recorded discussion of that gap.
What to do: The staff presentation walked through arena exterior, alarm, roof, and heating/cooling and chiller work, but the adopted motion authorizes the capital transfer only for projects associated with the Hilliard Center — request the funding overview slides and the amended capital budget schedule to see whether the arena repairs are actually funded by this action or were merely context.
Act before: After the requested records are produced
