tie` °fii MEMORANDUM
KENAI, ALASKA
TO: Rick Koch, City Manager
FROM: Sean Wedemeyer, Public Works Director SAIJ
DATE: May 29, 2014
SUBJECT: Ordinance No. 2766 -2014 —Authorizing a Budget Transfer within
the General Fund and Appropriating Funds in the New City Shop
Capital Project Fund
Rick,
This memo is in support of the ordinance appropriating excess funds in the shop
operating account to the shop construction account.
The City has been fortunate this fiscal year in that we have had less than average
quantity and severity of repairs to City equipment. Subsequently, I project we will under
spend the budget by approximately 12 %. Leaving the programmed 6% lapse in the
operating budget, there is an approximate additional $38,000 available. I propose to
transfer these funds to the capital project fund to allow for additional improvements.
I anticipate spending the remaining construction contingency money and approximately
$10,000 from this transfer to purchase a mobile heavy equipment lift. I expect to spend
the remaining amount on fence and earthwork to connect the parks and recreation tent
gravel pad to the new shop pad. If there are any additional funds remaining I would
suggest extending the gravel pad to the east to allow for safe and efficient movement of
heavy equipment around the building.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
