Adopt the attached supplemental appropriations ordinance increasing appropriations by $17,000 in Parking Building Fund 59, Parking Facili- ties Account No. 16-20-05 and decreasing by the same amount the Unreserved, Undesignated Retained Earnings of the Parking Building Fund, and 2. Authorize the use of these funds for improving security on City-owned parking lots designated for employee and City-owned vehicles. DISCUSSION Vandalism and theft is an ever-increasing problem on City parking Lot No. 2 located at Lancaster and Monroe. City-owned vehicles parked in this lot are sustaining slashed tires, smashed windows, stolen wheels and other damage and theft. Installation of an ornamental security fence, complete with motorized gate, has been contracted for $19,972. Only $10,000 was included in the cur- rent budget for this purpose. On April 4, 1989, 'M&C G--7987 was approved, transferring $8,000 from reserves to the operating budget .in order to erect a chain-link fence topped with barbed wire around~Lot.,No. 2. In August, an M&C to approve a contract to perform this work. was held~up for the purpose of determining if a more desir- able fence could be a"re~ct~ed and still resolve the security problems. As a result of various meetings, it was determined that in keeping with the Down- town Improvement District Plan, an upgrade of the type of fence to be installed would be requiredfso that appearances would be more decorative. With the end of FY 19.88-8'9, the $8,000 approved for this work was closed to the Fund's Retained Earnings and the necessary unbudgeted sum must now be transferred from und-es~i`gnat'ed, unreserved retained earnings for Fiscal 1990. The Office of Management Services has directed that this method of accounting be used. Fire employees parking in City Lot No. 5 behind Fire Station No. 2 are also sustaining damage and theft to their vehicles. Bids are being solicited for chain-link fencing around this whole lot, estimated to cost $21,000. Since Parking Facilities Division leases a portion of this lot to City employees, it is proposed that Parking Facilities contribute $7,000 toward the cost of this fence. This amount is included in the supplemental appropriation, in anticipation of this contract. •t \~ :h L ~ ~ 1 DATE REFERENCE NUMBER SUBJECT PAGE ~ FENCING OF CITY PARKING ,. 2 2,~,, 1-30-90 **L-10018 LOT NOS. 2 AND 5 , °'- -" FINANCING ~~" Upon adoption of the supplemental appropriation ordinance, suffi cient funds will be available in Fund 59, Parking Facilities Account No. 16-20- 05.
