Mayor and Council Communication

LOG NAME: 80PROJECT RECLASS
SUBJECT
Adopt Ordinances to Restructure Certain Capital Appropriations by Reclassifying Appropriated Funds in the Amount of$230,866.00 from
Programmable to Static Project Types for Improvements at Centreport Trail,and Sunset Hills Park,and Combining Funds from Duplicate Projects
at Marine Creek Lake Park in the Amount of$500,000 for the Park and Recreation Department and Update the Corresponding Capital
Improvement Plans(COUNCIL DISTRICTS 2,4,and 5)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council:
1. Adopt the attached ordinance restructuring the appropriation for the Centerport Trail project by decreasing receipts and appropriations in the
Park Improvements programmable project(City Programmable No. P00059)of the PARD Gas Lease Capital Projects Fund in the amount of
$200,000.00 and increasing receipts and appropriations in the Centreport Trail(static)project(City Project No. 100082)by the same amount;
2. Adopt the attached ordinance restructuring the appropriation for the Marine Creek Lake Park project by decreasing receipts and
appropriations in a duplicate Marine Creek Lake Park project(City Project No. 102335)of the 2018 Bond Program Fund in the amount of
$500,000.00 and increasing receipts and appropriations in the pre-existing Marine Creek Lake Park Imps project(City Project No. 100577)by the
same amount;and
3. Adopt the attached ordinance restructuring the appropriation for the Sunset Hills Park Drainage project by decreasing receipts and
appropriations in the Park Improvements programmable project(City Programmable No. P00059)of the PARD Gas Lease Capital Projects Fund
in the amount of$30,866.00 and increasing receipts and appropriations in the Sunset Hills Park Drainage(static)project(City Project No.
100771)by the same amount.
DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C)is to adopt revised appropriation ordinances to restructure certain Park and
Recreation Department capital projects as"Static"rather than"Programmable"appropriations and projects and to get funds for improvements at
Marine Creek Lake Park under the same project number.
The Fiscal Year(FY)2020 Capital Improvement Plan(CIP)appropriated$200,000.00 for the Centreport Trail project in the Park Improvements
Programmable Project. Because the Centreport Trail project is a static project and cannot receive funding from a programmable project,staff
recommends adopting an ordinance to decrease appropriations in the Park Improvements Programmable Project and to increase appropriations
in the Centreport Trail static project.
The FY2019 CIP appropriated$135,000.00 for the Marine Creek Lake Park Imps Project(City Project No. 100577)from PARD Dedication Fees
Fund. During the FY2020 CIP process,additional funding, in the amount of$500,000.00 from the 2018 Bond Program was appropriated for
Marine Creek Lake Park. Rather than being appropriated into the pre-existing project,those funds were appropriated in a separate,duplicate
project with the same name but a different numeric designation(City Project No. 102335).To correct this situation,staff recommends adoption of
the second attached ordinance,which decreases appropriations in the duplicate project and increases appropriations in the pre-existing project.
After the funds are removed from the duplicate project, it will be closed.
The FY2019 CIP appropriated$30,866.00 for the Sunset Hills Park Drainage project in the Park Improvements Programmable Project.Because
the Sunset Hills Park Drainage project is a static project and cannot receive funding from a programmable project,staff recommends adoption of
the third attached ordinance,which decreases appropriations in the Park Improvements Programmable Project and increases appropriations in
the Sunset Hills Park Drainage static project.
NOTE ON CIP-Appropriations for these projects were included in prior year CIP's.Previously appropriated funds are not generally included in the
forward-looking CIP. Therefore, prior year projects for which funding was appropriated were not included in the FY2020 CIP,which was presented
to the City Council in August 2019. The action in this M&C will serve to update the FY2020 CIP.
The Marine Creek Lake Park is located in Council District 2; Sunset Hills Park is located in Council District 4;and the Centreport Trail project is
located in Council District 5.
A Form 1295 is not required because:This M&C does not request approval of a contract with a business entity.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinances,the
funds are currently available in the PARD Gas Lease Capital Project Fund and the 2018 Bond Program Fund. Prior to an expenditure being
incurred,the Park&Recreation Department has the responsibility of verifying the availability of funds.
