The Department of Community and Economic Development is not projecting to end the fiscal year with sufficient budget to cover these costs. It was agreed months ago to monitor the impact of this project and request contingency funding if necessary. The request of $49,692 provides funding for $28,633 for printing/coping related costs, $12,924 for postage for notices, $8,135 for "hot line" phones, including staffing, GIS mapping and other supplies. The adjustment necessary to amend the budget is as follows: Fund Department/Category Decrease Increase General Fund General Fund Non Departmental/Contingency DCED/Miscellaneous Expenses $49,692 (E) $49,692 (E) Totals General Fund $49,692 (E) $49,692 (E) Issue #2-Police Related Grants 167,497 Public Safety Grants The Police Department is the recipient of several public safety related grants. The largest of these is the COPS AHEAD program, which funds 9 police officers. These officers were hired in February as per the initial grant requirements to hire before the final grants notice was received. The grant notice modified the beginning date to April 1st, which caused the City to cover (or lose) in FY95 75% of the first months funding, or $21,000. The grant period is still the same 3 years so it impacts only the current fiscal year. The grant will contribute in FY95 $63,000 of $125,000. The remainder or $62,000 is the City's responsibility and is made up of the $21,000 previously discussed, $28,125 for "normal" City match and $12,875 for uniforms, equipment, etc. for the new officers, which is not eligible for grant funding. It is requested to use General Fund contingency to cover the City's cost this fiscal year. Funds from the Operation Safe City grant of $5,072 have been received and expended and an appropriation is requested to cover this project. This grant was essentially completed in FY94, however due to timing a portion of the work was not completed until July 1995 which is part of FY95 and therefore it is necessary to "reapporpriate" this overlap. 3 The FY94 Salt Lake Area Gang Project grant period was amended to include the months of July and August of 1994 which is in FY95. Therefore, an appropriation of $31,894 is necessary to cover the overlapping expenses of this project. The City recently renewed the SEMI Motor Carrier Inspection grant with the State. The FY95 portion of this grant which started May 15 is $5,531, and it is requested to appropriate these funds. The adjustment necessary to amend the budget is as follows: Fund Department/Category Decrease Increase General Fund General Fund Police Department/ COPS AHEAD Operation Safe City SL Area Gang Project SEMI Motor Carrier Insp. Non Departmental/Contingency $62,000(E) $63,000 (R) $125,000 (E) $5,072 (R) $5,072 (E) $31,894 (R) $31,894 (E) $5,531 (R) $5,531 (E) Totals General Fund $62,000(E) $105,497 (R) $167,497 (E) Issue #3-Police Reimbursements $43,350 The Police Department has received several reimbursements for services performed and this amendment appropriates those funds. They have received the following : Metro Narcotics Strike Force for overtime $22,500 Veterans Retraining reduction of previous amount -$2,250 Miscellaneous Sources for overtime $10,900 Miscellaneous Sources for operating expenses $1,500 Violent Crimes Task Force for overtime $2,900 SL County Sheriff for Chaplain services $7,800 These amounts total $43,350 net. The adjustment necessary to amend the budget is as follows: 4 Fund Department/Category Decrease Increase General Police Department/ Fund Reimbursements $43,350 (R) Miscellaneous Expenses $43,350 (E) Totals General Fund $43,350 (R) $43,350 (E) Issue #4-MDTs $-0- net General Fund When funding for the Mobile Data Terminals was budgeted for in FY95, the appropriation was placed in the Police Departments General Fund budget as one time money. Throughout the fiscal year the project vendor selection process has been proceeding, however, it is not going to be possible to complete the purchases in the current fiscal year. Having this balance lapse to the General Fund balance would necessitate appropriating fund balance in next fiscal years budget. Because the remainder of the MDT project funding is on the CIP priority list of projects, it makes sense to move all of the funding together to better track and account for the entire project costs, and save the need for another budget amendment. It is therefore requested to reduce the Police budget by the $1,000,000 and appropriate a transfer in Non Departmental to the CIP fund for the same amount. $82,600 of actual expenses have been made against the account and these will be transferred by journal entry so the entire project is together. The adjustment necessary to amend the budget is as follows: Fund Department/Category Decrease Increase General Police Department/ Fund Capital Outlay $1,000,000 (E) General Non Department/ Fund Transfer to CIP $1,000,000 (E) CIP Fund MDT project FY95 $1,000,000 (R) T Transfer from General Fund $1,000,000 (E) Totals General Fund $1,000,000 (E) $1,000,000 (E) CIP Fund $1,000,000 (R) $1,000,000 (E) 5 Issue #5-Public Utilities $150,000 Water Utility Fund $150,000 Stormwater Utility Fund Public Utilities requests $100,000 to make additional water purchases to mitigate the excess usage last summer and fall. It is anticipated that the wet trend currently upon us will not last through the end of this fiscal year and additional water will need to be acquired. Additional contract service costs of $50,000 with Salt Lake County for watershed enforcement is needed to cover a late billing received from the County for services of FY94. Revenue to cover these items will come from additional metered water sales projected. It is also requested to add the expenses necessary to cover the Stormwater Utility share of street sweeping costs borne by the Refuse Fund. This budget will be covered from retained earnings of the Stormwater Utility Fund. The adjustment necessary to amend the budget is as follows: Fund Department/Category Decrease Increase Water Public Utilities/ Utility Metered Water Sales $150,000 (R) Fund Water Purchases $100,000 (E) Contract Services $50,000 (E) Stormwater Public Utilities/ Utility Street Sweeping $150,000 (E) Fund Totals Water Utility Fund $150,000 (R) $150,000 (E) Stormwater Utility Fund $150,000 (E) Issue #6-Golf Fund $290,000 Golf Fund Careful monitoring of the Golf Fund financial situation reveals that actual revenue will exceed actual expenditures, however, it is necessary to amend the budget to adjust annual budget allocations which have overstated revenues and understated expenses. 6 Specifically, combined golf revenues need to be reduced $142,000 to reflect realistic projections. Due to increased sales of merchandise in the pro shops, an additional $120,000 is needed to support customer requests and maintain necessary inventory levels. Record -breaking hot temperatures experienced in the Fall of 1994 resulted in increase water usage. Although this Spring has been exceptionally wet, it is anticipated that by year-end another $97,000 will be needed to water the golf courses. An additional $73,000 is needed for worker and unemployment compensation premiums to reflect the actual cost of these activities The adjustment necessary to amend the budget is as follows: Fund Department/Category Decrease Increase Golf Fund Golf Revenue $142,000(R) Golf Fund Operating & Maintenance - merchandise for resale $120,000 (E) Charges and Services - water $97,000 (E) Charges and Services - workers' comp. & unempl. $73,000 (E) Totals Golf Fund $142,000 (R) $290,000(E) Issue #7-Annual Early Retirement Allowance It is requested to establish an appropriation of $600,000 in the Risk Management Fund. This yearly request is made at this time in order to take advantage of any remaining budget balances at year end and pay early retirement benefits out of the current fiscal year instead of forcing departments next year to hold necessary positions unfilled until the costs are covered. Funding will come from savings from departments as they recognize it. No funding will be brought from current fund balance to cover these projected expenditures. The specific budget revision necessary to implement this recommendation is as follows: Fund Department/Category Decrease Increase General Fund Non Dept./Transfer out $600,000 (E) Risk Mgmt. Risk Mgmt./Transfer in $600,000 (R) Fund Risk Mgmt. Risk Mgmt./Early retirement $600,000 (E) Fund pay out Totals General Fund $600,000 (E) Risk Mgmt. Fund $600,000 (R) $600,000 (E) 7 Issue #8-Traffic Signals Final estimates of current year revenue predict that property ,sales, and franchise taxes should generate enough revenue to cover the fourteen remaining projects on the current list of Traffic Signal projects approved for funding. It is requested to establish a revenue budget and appropriate a General Fund transfer to the CIP to accomplish these projects with this expected one time money. If the final numbers prove different an adjustment will be made to prevent spending funds which will not have the cash backing. The cost of an average traffic signal project is $85,000. The specific budget revision necessary to implement this recommendation is as follows: Fund Department/Category Decrease Increase General Fund Mgmt. Serv./property taxes $600,000 (R) Mgmt.

Issue #1 - Establishing New Projects 1. To the reduce the possibility of failure of the emergency generation system at the Public Safety Building a modification of the system is necessary. This modification consists of a bypass switch on the UPS module, and the installation of an auxiliary generator connection which would allow a second generator to be hooked up to the system. The emergency power generation system provides power to critical loads in the Public Safety Building when UP&L power is interrupted. Two of the critical loads are the City 911 function and the police and fire dispatch function. The following establishes a budget for modifications.

The preliminary estimates prepared for the 800 East - So. Temple to 400 South project were done in December 1993. After a recent completetion of detailed engineering plans the estimate was in excess of the $480,000 originally budgeted. The detailed estimate included an amount to overlay the street after streets division planned the roadway. The money to cover the overlay was included in the March 1995 Budget Opening. It was Engineering's estimate the project would bid close to the estimate if the bidding climate remained similar to the prior year. However, the construction boom in the Salt Lake Valley has resulted in a significant increase in construction costs. The only way to reduce the project cost would be to reduce the scope. It is important the project scope remain the same. The funds to cover the additional monies will come from two sources, CDBG and Class "C". The balance remaining in the CDBG CIP Contingency after this transfer will be $43,900. The 900 south project, where a portion of the funds are being taken from, will require multi year funding. This project is to be constructed concurrently with a major storm drain line to be funded by Public Utilities. They will not have the necessary funding for the storm drain until 1998 or 1999. Design is in the preliminary stage and the decrease in funding will not affect the long term project.

The pricing for the unfinished work at Fire Station #1 exceeds the $20,000 amount left after recent reallocation of funds. The following items remain to be completed: revise 200 south drive to accommodate the long frame truck #1; seal exterior brick veneer on the building; and pay for previously approved change order for tree rings. Engineering is continuing to work with the contractor to better the prices, however this appears to be the lowest they are able to negotiate. The funds will come from two contingency accounts. The balance in the 1993 contingency account will be 0 after this transfer and the balance in the 1994 account will be $12,767.
