The total budget originally identified for the renovation project was $1,249 000 Renovation work has been completed for the Permit Center with the exception of the Fire Prevention and Tree Preservation sections Work has also been completed for the City Secretary and Community Relations areas Work is in progress on the Budget and Governmental Relations areas and has recently began in the Mayor and Council area. The revised cost estimate for this project has decreased to $1,246 000 Since only $870 000 was appropriated initially this M&C proposes to appropriate funds for the remaining $376 000 required to complete the renovation with a transfer from the Capital Projects Reserve Fund The requested funding will provide for building materials, furnishings, equipment, furniture information technology modifications, and related moving expenses. The project is physically located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 9 but will serve Fort Worth residents in all Council Districts.
