$6.8M across 2,906 payments, July 11, 2017 to September 3, 2026 — 456 purchase orders and 17 vendors, run by Fire.
As published: WATER CONTROL DEVICES
This budget line has run for 10 fiscal years across 456 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.
