Historically, purchase orders encumbered near the end of the fiscal year are not paid by June 30`' and therefore the payment will occur in the next fiscal year. Because the budget from the prior fiscal year lapsed, it is necessary to again appropriate funds to cover the purchase obligations made in the prior year and paid in the current year. The funding source for this type of transaction is fund balance. Cash or revenue collected in the prior year and not spent lapses to fund balance or cash reserves and is therefore available to cover the obligations made. This amendment request will appropriate budget in the General Fund of $3,257,530. There is adequate fund balance available in the General Fund to accomplish this request and will result in no unanticipated change in Fund Balance.

The purpose of this amendment is to approve funding for our share of the costs. The total cost of the study was $59,000. Our $17,252 share was based 3 upon a formula that used the percentage of total assessed property values of each jurisdiction participating. Our share is 29.24 percent.

The construction of the Steiner Ice Sheet and the acquisition of the new equipment that will bring the Fire Training Tower into service seemed to be the cleanest possibilities. This amendment will make the necessary adjustments to the CIP Fund budget for these three projects to bring them in line with this decision. Fund Department/Category Decrease Increase CIP Fund Steiner Ice Sheet $2,300,000 Fire Training $1,300,000 Police Precinct $1,000,000 Issue Request #4 - Combining Traffic Signals Projects CIP Fund $-0- Net The City should create one single budget titled Traffic Signals to incorporate budget amounts remaining from previously completed CIP projects and budgets for yet to be completed approved CIP projects. The combination of these project budgets will result in funds available for prioritized traffic signal construction. The source of funding is from individual CIP projects as noted below. No other funding sources are recommended at this time. The current approved CIP projects are listed below by their cost center, project name and current budget. The total combined budget for all the projects 4 is $682,830. All of the traffic signals listed are designed or are being designed. Cost estimates have been prepared and in all cases the amounts required differ from the amount that was budgeted. It has been determined that combining all the funds would allow construction and upgrading of more traffic signals than what would be possible with multiple budgets. However, the project scope for signal upgrades will have to be reduced. Cost Center Project Budget Remaining Estimated ..

The estimated construction cost includes City furnished equipment, General Contractor's costs, construction contingency, and SLC engineering, permitting and testing costs. Based on current bids and the amount of money budgeted for these approved projects, the traffic signals at 200 East & 200 South and 200 East & 300 South will not be able to be upgraded. 5 ionty , , Locatiop „% , ,.,„,,s. , , ,, ,,, tuna 111 > Construction Costs:,. , > , e S , a Cumulative,' Casts„ 1 Starcrest and 700 North $86,000 $86,000 2 Emery and California $90,000 $176,000 3 700 East and 100 South $111,000 $287,000 4 700 East and 200 South $111,000 $398,000 5 700 East and 300 South $115,000 $513,000 6 200 East and 100 South $87,000 $600,000 7 300 East and 100 South $86,000 $686,000 8 200 East and 200 South $83,000 $769,000� 9 200 East and 300 South $84,000 $853,000 The following budget changes should be made to consolidate the current traffic signal projects.

The Utah Department of Transportation (UDOT) has approved our application for a Safer Sidewalk project proposal submitted in April of 1999. The grant requires a 25 % local match of the cost of the entire project. Grant funds will provide $50,000 for the sidewalk, with the City's share is $17,000. Per Council intent because this project relates to safety, it is recommended to go forward now and not wait until the next budget cycle. Funding for the City's share will come from the FY 2000 CIP contingency account. The amount remaining in contingency will be $229,120.

The Bennion Center through the University of Utah is constructing an outdoor classroom adjacent to the Jordan River Trail, which is currently being constructed by the City. To make the facility more functional, additional grading is required. The money from the University will pay for the additional grading.

The landfill is required by Federal and State statutes to regularly monitor ground water, leachate, surface water, and gas emissions. This monitoring is typically done on a semi-annual basis. The City Engineers Office is responsible for providing engineering services for projects at the landfill. To provide this monitoring, it will be necessary to enter into a contract with a consultant. The budget requested herein will allow the monitoring to take place over the next five-year period. The source of funding is the Salt Lake Valley Solid Waste Facility, and the budget amendment will recognize this funding arrangement. No other funding sources are required.

Per agreement with Salt Lake County, the City provides Engineering services such as design, construction administration, etc. for projects at the Landfill. The Landfill has recently identified these four projects that it desires to accomplish. This budget will allow the City to design and construct these projects by selecting consultants and contractors. The source of funding is the Salt Lake Valley Solid Waste Facility, and the budget amendment will recognize this funding arrangement. No other funding sources are required. 8 Fund Department / Category Decrease Increase CIP Fund CIP/Landfill Hazardous Waste Facility Awning $50,000 (R) CIP/Landfill Hazardous Waste Facility Awning $50,000 (E) CIP/Landfill Shop Storage Area Enclosure (R) $50,000 CIP/Landfill Shop Storage Area Enclosure (E) $50,000 CIP/Landfill Wildlife Overlook (R) $100,000 CIP/Landfill Wildlife Overlook (E) $100,000 CIP/Landfill Aerial Survey (R) $25,000 CIP/Landfill Aerial Survey (E) $25,000 Issue Request #9 - Landfill Refuse Location Survey CIP Fund $50,000 Budget Impact The City should increase the budget for the Landfill Refuse Location Survey at the Salt Lake Valley Solid Waste Facility by $50,000. In order to operate, the EPA has issued a permit to the landfill. One of the permit requirements was the implementation of an operations record plan. This requires that the location of refuse be documented on a weekly basis. This budget increase is to continue the required services currently being provided by the City's surveying consultant. The source of funding is the Salt Lake Valley Solid Waste Facility, and the budget amendment will recognize this funding arrangement. No other funding sources are required.

A CIP account for Property Management was set up in February 1994 to routinely cover extraordinary 9 expenses related to real property transactions. This account is used to cover a variety of property issues (environmental analysis, title research, abstracts, appraisal reports, and delinquent taxes) which require funding to cover expenses, and which are not covered as a regular budget item. The $128,078 will cover the five current property issues plus a small amount for miscellaneous expenses. Fund balance in the CIP Surplus Land Account is available as the source of funds, and has typically been the funding source for Property Management's expenses of this kind.
