Recommendation
It is recommended that the City Council :
1) Authorize the transfer of $99,006 from the Special Gifts Fund No. 88,
Library Projects , No. 841005-00, to the General Fund; and,
2) Approve the attached supplemental appropriations ordinance, which increases
General Fund estimated receipts and appropriates an additional $99,006 to
the General Fund Library Account No. 84-10-00.
Background
Un November 13, 1984, the City Council accepted a $600,000 challenge grant from
the Amon G. Carter Foundation and agreed to match that amount to purchase an
automated system for the Fort Worth Public Library.
A contract was awarded on June 25, 1985, to CL Systems , Inc. for the automated
system. At that time, the Council authorized the transfer of $536,994 from the
Special Gifts Fund and $536,994 from the Capital Projects Reserve Fund to finance
the automated system.
On September 24, 1985, (H&C G-6446) , the City Council awarded a contract in the
amount of $99,490 to Harco R Associates, Inc. for the construction of a computer
room to house the library system. At that time, the City Council allocated the
City's remaining match of $64,000 to finance the Marco contract (536,994 +
$64,000 = $600,994) . The remaining $35,490 ($99,490 - $64,000) from the Carter
Foundation grant will complete the financing of the tlarco contract.
The City Council also authorized that the interest earned on the Carter Founda-
tion grant he credited to the Library automation project. To date, $36,000 has
been credited. Use of these funds, plus the remaining $27,516 ($63,006 -
$35,490) from the grant monies , is requested to finance the purchase of peri-
pheral equipment for the automated system.
Financing
It is necessary at this time to transfer all remaining gift and interest monies
from the Special Gifts Fund, No. 88, Library Projects, No. 841005-00 to the
General Fund, for the benefit of the Library's computer room construction and
related costs. Of the $99,006 to be transferred, $36,000 represents interest
earnings to date. A supplemental appropriations ordinance is required.
