DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication(M&C)is to provide for capital project clean-up as identified throughout the fiscal year.
Items of clean up that are needed may include but are not limited to actions such as authorizing transfers, balancing receipts and appropriations
for primarily completed projects to facilitate closing, provide correcting budget transfers and general ledger entries to prepare for project closure or
to balance a project, move additional or residual receipts and appropriations to the appropriate capital project fund,and other ancillary actions to
fulfill capital obligations as needed.
As the City has enhanced budgetary and expenditure controls,these requested items seek approval for transparency and control purposes.To the
extent possible,each request has been reviewed by the budget division in conjunction with the participating department for accuracy and
completeness.
Items addressed in this M&C are as follows:
General Fund(PAR Department)and General Capital Projects Fund-William McDonald YMCA Major Maintenance Project
Via M&C C-27548,approved 12/01/2015,the city agreed to provide long-term support for the operation and major maintenance and repairs of the
SE YMCA Aquatics Facility in the form of an annual subsidy and contribute to a long-term major maintenance reserve. Due to the SE YMCA
project completion delay in FY2018,the city's financial contribution towards the reserve for this fiscal year did not occur. This authorization allows
for the transfer, in the amount of$12,000,to be made from the PAR Department within the General Fund to the General Capital Projects Fund.The
City will then be in compliance with setting aside its annual contribution amount as indicated in City Secretary Contract No.47755.Currently,
appropriations of$12,000.00 exist in the FY2020 General Fund operating budget in operations and maintenance that were specifically for this
agreement and will be reallocated to a capital transfer account to enable the execution of the transfer.There is no impact to the General Fund
for this reallocation between budgeted categories. This M&C is requesting to appropriate the funds in the William McDonald YMCA Major
Maintenance project within the General Capital Projects Fund.
Crime Control and Prevention District Fund and Crime Control and Prevention District(CCPD)Capital Projects Fund—Project
Completions
This M&C is requesting authorization to adjust appropriations in the CCPD Capital Projects Fund, in the amount of$347,562.00,and transfer to
the Crime Control and Prevention District Fund for the purpose of addressing projected funding shortfalls. Of this amount,$328,063.00 is from
residual balances of several completed projects and$19,499.00 is from programmable project P00050-Facilty Renovations/Expense-Police.
Special Donations Capital Projects Fund—Park&Recreation Department
Lifetime Tennis,the current vendor of the McLeland Tennis Center,pays a yearly capital improvement fee that goes towards improvements at this
tennis center. To date, Park&Recreation Department has received revenues of$21,000.00 and expects to receive$4,500.00 in September for
FY2020. This M&C requests authorization to appropriate funds,in the amount of$25,500.00,for improvements towards the McLeland Tennis
Center. Planned improvements include resurfacing the hitting wall area and making two pickleball courts out of the existing tennis courts.
General Capital Project Fund-Botanic Garden Renovation-Rehabilitation
On May 5,2020,M&C 20-0266 funded several Botanic Garden(BG)improvement projects with tax notes.The BG South Vista Drainage project,
which will address drainage improvements and site revegetation(regrade and replant),has a total project cost of$483,240.00,of which
$282,240.00 is from tax notes funding. The BG South Vista Drainage is a static project and cannot receive funding from a programmable project,
therefore,this M&C requests authorization to decrease appropriations in the Botanic Garden Renovations-Rehabilitation programmable project
and increase appropriations in the BG South Vista Drainage static project in the amount of$201,000.00 to complete the funding needs for this
project.
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 funds are currently available in the General Fund,General Capital Projects Fund,and the CCPD Capital
Projects Fund,and upon approval of the above recommendations and adoption of the attached appropriation ordinances,funds will be available in
the Crime Control and Prevention District Fund,General Capital Projects Fund and Special Donations Cap Projects Fund,for the BG South Vista
Drainage project,the William McDonald(SE)YMCA project and the McLeland Tennis Center Imp project.Prior to an expenditure being incurred,
the Police and Park&Recreation Departments have the responsibility of verifying the availability of funds.
