INTRODUCED: December 13, 2010 BY: Chris Kaufman COUNCILPERSON Background Paper for Proposed RESOLUTION DATE: AGENDA ITEM # December 13, 2010 M-1 DEPARTMENT: Office of the City Manager Jerry M. Pacheco, City Manager Jenny M. Eickelman, Assistant City Manager TITLE: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE PAYMENT OF $2,485 FROM THE COUNCIL CONTINGENCIES ACCOUNT IN THE 2010 GENERAL FUND BUDGET TO PUEBLO COUNTY AS REIMBURSEMENT FOR CERTAIN REPAIR COSTS AT THE ANIMAL SHELTER ISSUE: Should the City Council approve a Resolution authorizing payment of $2,485 from the Council Contingencies Account in the 2010 General Fund Budget to Pueblo County for reimbursement of City’s share of the costs for replacing a section of deteriorating asphalt with a concrete pad near the trash receptacles at the Animal Shelter and for repairing the water heater? RECOMMENDATION: Administration recommends approval of this Resolution. BACKGROUND: Ordinance No. 7959 amended a contract for services between the City of Pueblo, the Board of County Commissioners, and the Human Society of the Pikes Peak Region relating, in part, to the City and County’s responsibility to pay for repairs at the animal shelter involving costs in excess of $1,000 in any one instance, provided those repairs are not caused by negligent acts or omissions of the Society. The City has been notified that (1) deteriorating asphalt near the trash receptacles needs to be replaced with a concrete pad, and (2) the commercial water heater at the facility requires repair. Pueblo County solicited bids, arranged to have the work performed, and will pay for the work. Both projects exceed $1,000 and are not the result of negligent acts or omission; therefore, Pueblo County is seeking reimbursement from the City in the amount of $2,485. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Funds in the amount of $2,485 from the Council Contingencies Account will be appropriated to Pueblo County as reimbursement for the City’s share of repairs made at the Animal Shelter (see attached spreadsheet for the balance in the contingencies account).
