What has the City spent on Spa-Misc Operational Expense?
$1.6M across 1,110 payments, November 25, 2020 to August 26, 2026 — 503 purchase orders and 16 vendors, run by Police.
As published: SPA-MISC OPERATIONAL EXPENSE
This budget line has run for 7 fiscal years across 503 separate purchase orders. A single payment in the register shows none of that — the commitment outlives any one order, and the orders are how it gets renewed.
