DISCUSSION:
The purpose of this Mayor and Council Communication (M&C) is to appropriate additional funds to cover unexpected repairs and maintenance at
the Alliance Maintenance Facility, transfer Fiscal Year (FY) 2024 funding from the General Capital Projects Fund back to the Alliance Maintenance
Facility Fund and reallocate funding within the Alliance Maintenance Facility Fund,
Per Ordinance No. 26453-09-2023 Section 2, the FY2024 adopted budget for the Alliance Maintenance Facility Fund was $8,237,763.00. This
M&C recommends an increase in appropriations of $370,478.00 for an adjusted FY2024 budget of $8,608,241.00.
In FY2023, M&C 23-0370 authorized the execution of a lease agreement with MTU Maintenance Dallas, Inc. (MTU) which included an
appropriation of $860,000.00 for completion of deferred maintenance to the space occupied by MTU. However, only $200,192.70 was spent in
FY2023 because the deterred maintenance work needed to coincide with other tenant improvements that were not completed in FY2023. The
remaining $659,807.30 was used to cover the cost of other unexpected expenses at the Alliance Maintenance Facility in FY2023 such as boiler
and pump maintenance, electrical outage and fire system repairs, and other contractual increases including additional staffing. Per the operating
lease agreement with MTU, $659,807.30 in additional deferred maintenance expenses must be spent in FY2024.
The FY2024 Adopted Budget for the Alliance Maintenance Facility Fund included a total of $760,000.00 in capital transfer out appropriations for
various capital projects at the Central Utility Plant. However, after reassessing capita[ needs, it has been determined that the capital projects can
be completed at a later time. Therefore, $659,808.00 of the $760,000.00 originally budgeted for capital expenditures will be transferred to the
Operating and Maintenance category to address the pending deferred maintenance for the space occupied by MTU.
The remaining $100,192.00 will also be transferred to the Operating and Maintenance category to cover the cost of an assessment of deferred
maintenance needs at the Alliance Maintenance Facility completed in FY2024.
This M&C will also increase expenditure appropriations in the General Operating and Maintenance accounts by $370,478.00 for potential
unforeseen repairs and maintenance needed through the Alliance Maintenance Facility in FY2024.
Funding is available for appropriation in the fund balance of the Alliance Maintenance Facility Fund. The fund balance as of May 31 It. 2024 was
$2,292,144.00. The new fund balance amount after this M&C will be $1,921,666.00. Also funding is budgeted in the Alliance Maint Facility Repair
project within the General Capital Projects Fund.
The action in this M&C will amend the Fiscal Year 2024 Adopted Budget as approved in connection with Ordinance 26453-09-2023, Section 2, as
listed on page 5. Funding for the capital projects was included in the FY2024-2028 General Capital Projects Fund Capital Improvement Program
for year 2024. Therefore, the action in this M&C will also amend the FY2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program as approved in connection with
Ordinance 26453-09-2023.
