Hi Ehab,

A quick and random question as we have a potential naming opportunity (may be honorific) for the fountain adjacent to the Hallene Gateway and Alice Campbell Alumni Center.  Can you estimate the annual operating expense for the foundation, flower bed, etc?  If there is another appropriate source for this information, please feel free to pass along.  Thanks in advance for all your help.

Hi Ehab,

Please see the fountain maintenance costs for the past two years in the screen shots below and the information for the past 12 years in the spreadsheet in the attachment.

Ryan Welch emailed and said, grounds spends around $16,000 annually on prepping, planting, fertilizing, watering, weeding, removing, disposing and purchasing flowers for the Hallene Fountain bed. 

If you have further questions, please let us know.

Thanks

Mark

Thank you Mark. Is the $16k by Ryan’s team in addition to the $34k in FY21/22 and $36k in FY22/23? Or the total cost including Ryan’s team expenses is $34k in FY21/22 and $36k in FY22/23?

Yes, this is correct.
