The City Council is poised Tuesday to appropriate nearly $103,000 for park fixes and another $83,000 for golf-course repairs resulting from the burst.

That's on top of $700,000 allotted in November to the city's energy department for electrical damage.

Now, Provo Finance Director John Borget estimates airport damage alone will reach $200,000. These numbers are just part of the city's tab. Damage to private property could run even higher.

The 20-minute storm ravaged west and south Provo on Aug. 1 with 80 mph winds, tossing more than 50 power lines, leveling two homes, ripping up 11 other buildings and flipping over five planes at Provo's airport.

At The Reserve at Eastbay golf course, the gusts uprooted dozens of trees and shredded the driving range's netting.

“The airport took some pretty serious damage,” Borget said, including roofs being torn off airport offices. He said the city hopes insurance will cover most of that damage.

Fortunately, a healthy fiscal year will ease the rest of the financial burden.

City park losses will be covered partly from the city's capital-improvement fund, which got a boost after last year's economy created a surplus in the general fund.

Energy-fund surpluses also were available.

Borget said parks and recreation, the energy department and the airport were the three city divisions hardest hit. City leaders won't know the total storm damage until reports come back from all departments.

“We're still assessing the other areas of the city,” Borget said.
