RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING TRANSFER OF USDA-RD SHORT TERM ASSET RESERVE FUND TO THE WATER FUND TO COVER EMERGENCY REPAIR COSTS FOR WELL 12

Resolution #24-2026 — 2026-05-26

WHEREAS

  • on Monday, April 20, 2026, a low-level alarm was triggered at the water tanks, caused by the wells not producing enough water to keep up with demand
  • Smith Well Drilling, Inc., responded to our emergency request to assist with the investigation of the wells and well pumps and motors to determine the problem
  • Smith Well Drilling, Inc., lifted the pump and motor from Well 12 and discovered a hole in the pump at the connection of the pipe. Replacing the pipe did not fix the problem so a new pump and motor was purchased and installed the same day
  • the expenses for Well 12 related to this emergency are as follows: Smith Well Drilling, Inc. $2,851.23 and D&S Pump & Supply Co. $2,075.45
  • the Village of Red Hook maintains a USDA-RD Short Term Asset Reserve Fund in line with requirements of the USDA-RD loan to ensure there are funds on hand for short term asset repair or replacement such as these
  • this fund is maintained as a separate account, funded by the Water Budget at $25,000 each year; and has approximately $151,570 as a balance

RESOLVED

  • the Village Board of Trustees approves the use of funds from the USDA-RD Short Term Asset Reserve Fund to pay for these expenses
  • the Treasurer is directed to transfer $4,926.68 from the USDA-RD Reserve account and pay these two invoices
