Developer Tech Improvements
The Developer Tech Improvements project was created to capture the technology fee charged by the Development Services Department to
purchase technology to support and improve the development process. The fees in this fund can only be spent for this purpose. This M&C
authorizes the appropriation of the funds for the proposed staff augmentation now that the technology fees have accumulated sufficiently to pay the
entirety of the contract.
Funding for this life-to-date operating project was not included in the Fiscal Year(FY)2022 Adopted Budget due to the fact that the funds are
appropriated when needed and not annually. Per this M&C,the FY2022 Adopted Budget is as follows:
