The savings in Automotive line item 904 is based upon the cost of a 1 -ton truck with service body. The savings in line item 906, Specialized Equipment was related to the purchase of a pneumatic pole pounder, power pole trimmer and trailer water tank. Adequate funds remain for purchase of radios ($1,200), a share of the radio system upgrade ($6,607) and 25 percent of a mini- computer ($12,500). The recently purchased 1 -ton utility truck is utilized as the primary construction vehicle. As such, it is necessary to outfit said vehicle with the small tools in order to eliminate trips into the public works yard for loading and unloading equipment. City Council action is required to transfer savings in a capital account to an operations and maintenance account. By transferring funds there is no need to increase the appropriation for the department. Recommendation (Roll Call Vote Required) Staff recommends approval of the transfers among line items as presented for the Public Works Department funded by Gas Tax. 0052
