ITEM
Ou
TO: The Honorable City Council
FROM: Christine Adams, Director of Community Services-
DATE: January 19, 1996 (Meeting of February 7, 1996)
SUBJECT: Consider Purchase of FAX Machine for Arroyo Vista
. Recreation Center
BACKGROUND
Staff has determined that a FAX machine at Arroyo Vista Recreation
Center would be of great benefit. Currently, Center staff need to
make two to three trips to City Hall each day to deliver mail,
warrants and purchase orders, and deliver written memorandums to
other City staff. A FAX machine would enable staff to tele-
communicate with City Hall staff, and reduce the number of trips
to City Hall each day. In addition, when it is necessary to FAX
information to other destinations, such as other Cities or
vendors, Center staff must FAX from City Hall, which also
necessitates a trip to City Hall.
Staff has priced several FAX machines and have determined that a
Hewlett Packard Office Jet FAX is the most reasonably priced. The
total cost for the machine, installation, and service fee through
the end of this fiscal year is $850.00. Annual service costs are
$180. The Center was designed with additional phone lines, and
one can be dedicated to the FAX without any additional costs,
beyond the already identified installation costs.
In the 1995 -96 Capital Equipment budget appropriations, staff
requested $$5,000 for a portable lift to replace light bulbs and
vents in the gym. Staff was able to acquire a used lift, with a
full warranty, for $3,325, for a savings of $1,675. Staff is
recommending that capital funds from this line item
(01.149.906.000390) be used to purchase the subject FAX machine.
RECOMMENDATION
Approve the reallocation of funds in the amount of $850.00 from
lift purchase savings, (Capital Equipment 01. 149. 906. 000390) , for
the purchase of a FAX machine, installation and monthly service
fees through June 30, 1996, at Arroyo Vista Recreation Center.
