LOG NAME: 2121 TRANSFER OF FUNDS FOR CAPITAL PROJECTS SERVICE FUND
SUBJECT:
Adopt Ordinance Amending Fiscal Year 2016 Capital Appropriation Ordinance to Reduce the Appropriation
in the Vehicle & Equipment Replacement Fund in the Amount of$32,500.00 to Reflect the Transfer of
Vehicles from the Capital Projects Service Fund for the Construction Inspection Section of the
Transportation and Public Works Department to the General Fund for the Transportation and Public Works
Department and Adopt Ordinance Amending Fiscal Year 2016 Operating Ordinance to Reflect Reallocation
of Pay-As-You-Go Capital Dollars and Increase in Capital Projects Service Fund (ALL COUNCIL
DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt the attached ordinance amending the Fiscal Year 2016 capital appropriation ordinance
(Ordinance No. 22004-12-2015) to reduce the appropriation in the Vehicle & Equipment Replacement
Fund by $32,500.00, which consists of a reduction in the Transportation & Public Works Project to reflect
that vehicles will be acquired within the City from the Capital Projects Service Fund instead of being
purchased from outside sources; and
2. Adopt the attached ordinance amending the Fiscal Year 2016 operating appropriation ordinance
(Ordinance No. 21873-09-2015) to reallocate a total of$32,500.00 in Pay-As-You-Go capital dollars for an
internal acquisition and to increase the revenues and contribution to fund balance in the Capital Projects
Service Fund by the same amount.
DISCUSSION:
The Fleet Division of the Property Management Department is facilitating a transfer of ownership of
several vehicles from the Capital Projects Service Fund for the Construction Inspection Section of the
Transportation and Public Works Department to the General Fund for the Streets Division of the
Transportation and Public Works Department. This internal acquisition will serve as an alternative to
expending budgeted funds on the purchase of new vehicles.
The vehicles are no longer needed by the Construction Inspection Section and will replace older models
that will be turned in for auction by the Streets Division. The FY2016 Capital Improvement Program (CIP)
included funding in the Vehicle & Equipment Replacement Fund (VERF) for the Streets Division to replace
vehicles and equipment.
The transfer of vehicles will result in the cancellation of previously approved Equipment Purchase
Requests (EPRs) related to these vehicles, and a portion of the funds budgeted for new vehicle and
equipment purchases will be transferred to the Capital Projects Service Fund.

Adoption of the first ordinance will revise the capital appropriation ordinance that was adopted earlier this
year to reduce project totals and lower the amount for external capital outlays. Adoption of the second
ordinance will: (i) reallocate the dollars within the General Fund for the Transportation and Public Works
Department to reflect that funds for the internal acquisitions will be transferred to the Capital Projects
Service Fund for the external outlay for external vehicle and equipment purchases; and (ii) document the
transfer in and increased contribution to the fund balance in the Capital Projects Service Fund. Once
these funds have been reclassified for a budgeted transfer, the Chief Financial Officer will be able to effect
the transfer of funds in accordance with the authority delegated to him in the FY2016 operating
appropriation ordinance.
The amount that is being transferred to the Capital Projects Service Fund is based on the presumptive
value of the vehicles. "Presumptive value" is used to determine value when vehicles are either too new or
unique to use the City's average auction value. The Texas Standard Presumptive Value (SPV) is a value
generated by the State of Texas for tax purposes for vehicles that are not bought through a licensed
vendor. Presumptive value is approximately 10 percent lower than Kelly Blue Book for private sale, very
good condition. Both are based on year, model, and mileage.
Both divisions have agreed upon the presumptive value of the vehicles as a fair value.
The presumptive value of the vehicles being transferred is:
