DISCUSSION
During the adoption of the FY 2005-06 Budget for the Parks and Community Services Department, the City
Council authorized funding for the Small Capital Projects Crew to construct small capital projects generally
$150 000 or less. By using in-house crews, the Department can .achieve savings of 29% for small capital
projects by eliminating the need for outside design and engineering inspection cost, contract
administration and contractor markup on equipment and supplies. During the first quarter of 2005-06 the
Department has successfully recruited and hired essential personnel for this crew and is ready to begin
construction on a number of projects
Under the proposed schedule for FY 2005-06 the Small Capital Projects Crew is expected to complete
almost $1 million in improvements. Listed below is the proposed schedule for the Small Capital Projects
Crew for FY 2005-06 The proposed schedule was endorsed by the Parks and Community Services
Advisory Board at their November 15 2005 meeting The projects selected were based on available
funding inclusion in the list of unfunded projects noted in the City's Comprehensive Plan and identified as
a priority in the Park, Recreation and Open Space Master Plan Projects were also selected and grouped
based on economies through bulk purchasing shipping discounts and maximized use of leased
construction equipment. Projects funded through gas revenues are noted by an asterisk and require
appropriation of funds as listed in this communication
