Gilbert, Director of Public Works BY: Baldemar Troche, Public Works Management Analyst DATE: January 26, 1994 (CC Meeting of February 2, 1994) SUBJECT: CONSIDER AMENDMENTS TO THE BUDGET FOR CERTAIN PUBLIC WORKS PROGRAMS OVERVIEW This requests that the City Council approve amendments to the FY 1993/94 Budget for certain Public Works programs. DISCUSSION A. Budget Amendments With six (6) months of Fiscal Year 1993/94 elapsed, the total expenditures to date for each line item should be approximately 50% of the total budgeted amount. However, as Exhibit 'A' demonstrates, the percent expended to date for the accounts shown in that Exhibit is higher than 50%. In order to place these expenditures in a historic perspective, Exhibit 'A' also shows actual expenditures for these accounts for the past two fiscal years. B. Expenditure Descriptions The items listed and summarized in Exhibit 'A' are described in more detail as follows: 1. Graffiti Abatement Costs [01-141-658] -- The budgeted amount for this line item is $1,000.00. The amount spent in this account during the first seven months exceeds the budget by $383.00. These excess expenditures were authorized by the Director in order to continue to implement City policy to abate graffiti in a timely manner. Of the $1,383.00 expended, $560.00 was for an unanticipated expense required to perform repairs to the sandblasting machine used for graffiti abatement. Budget Amendments Page 2 It is requested that an additional $1,000.00 be appropriated from the General Fund and the budget for this line item be increased to $2,000.00, to cover past and future Graffiti abatement costs. Future costs include the purchase of color matched paint and other supplies required for the administration of this program. 2. Public Works Supplies [03-142-623] -- The budgeted amount for this line item is $30,125.00. The amount spent in this account in the first seven months is $23,281.12, leaving a balance of $6,843.88 for the remainder of the Fiscal Year. Of the $23,281+ spent to date, $10,513+ was for regulatory signs. By comparison, the amount spent for regulatory signs during the first six month of FY 1992/93 was only $2,059+. This marked increase was due primarily to the purchase of a large number of NO STOPPING ANYTIME, NO STOPPING -- STREET SWEEPING, TRUCK ROUTE and other signs required to implement actions taken by the city Council. It is recommended that this line item be increased by $9,875 ($40,000 total) to provide approximately $16,700 for the remainder of the Fiscal Year. Future expenditures include additional regulatory signs installed as required to implement past and future actions of the City Council. 3. Public Works Equipment Maintenance & Supplies [03-142-651] -- The budgeted amount for this line item is $351.00. The amount spent in this account in the first seven months is $268.69, leaving a balance of $82.31 for the remainder of the Fiscal Year. Monies spent in this account is designated for field equipment maintenance. It is recommended that this line item be increased $110.00 ($461.00 total) to provide $192.31 for the remainder of the Fiscal Year. 4. Public Works Maintenance & Repairs [03-142-658] -- The budgeted amount for this line item is $3,350.00. The amount spent in this account during the first seven months exceeds the budget by $709.00. With the purchase of an air compressor and pneumatic tools, in-house repair and replacement of sidewalks has increased significantly. Using in-house forces enables us to do the work for less cost than if done by a contractor. The net result is, however, that expenditures for concrete and related materials has increased. Of the $4,059.00 spent, $1,383.87 was spent on concrete and materials. It is recommended that this line item be increased $3,150.00 ($6,500.00 total) to provide $2,441.00 for the remainder of the Fiscal Year. This will allow us to continue to provide these services in the most effective and efficient means available. Budget Amendments Page 3 5. Sidewalk Reconstruction [003-142-903-0028] -- The budgeted amount for this project is $10,000. As described in Item #4, all of the sidewalk replacement work constructed this fiscal year has been performed by City crews. There has been no expenses to date for contract sidewalk repairs. It is recommended, therefore, that the budget amount for this project be reduced to $5,000, said decrease to partially offset the budget increases requested in this report. 6. Equipment Rental [03-142-661] -- The budgeted amount for this line item is $4,500.00. The amount spent in this account in the first seven months is $3,379+, leaving a balance of $1,121+ for the remainder of the Fiscal Year. Expenditures to date include costs for the rental of a skip loader to remove silt from storm drain debris basins. With the start of the rainy season it may be necessary to rent additional equipment to support those and other efforts. It is recommended that this line item be increased $1,900.00 ($6,400.00 total) to provide $3,021.00 for the remainder of the Fiscal Year. It should be noted that the actual amount spent for this line item for FY 1992/93 was $6,392.00. C.
