Gradisar, Mayor VIA: Brenda Armijo, City Clerk FROM: Ian Turner, Director of Aviation SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE TRANSFERRING FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF $82,013 FROM THE WILDLIFE PERIMETER FENCE PROJECT AP1902 TO THE GENERAL FUND SUMMARY: This Ordinance returns funds to the General Fund that were used to design the wildlife perimeter fence project. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: Resolution No. 14238 was approved by the City on October 22, 2018 for the submittal of an application for Federal Assistance to install a wildlife perimeter fence. On May 28, 2019, the City approved Ordinance No. 9461 establishing the Wildlife Perimeter Project AP1902, appropriating and budgeting funds into the project, and approving a contract agreement with Dibble and Associates to design the project. Council approved an Application for Federal Assistance for traditional AIP funding on July 8, 2019 by Resolution No. 14238. BACKGROUND In order to compete for an FAA AIP grant, the design of the project needed to be funded by the City. On May 28, 2019, the City approved an Ordinance for funds to be moved into the project for this purpose. FAA Grant No. 3-08-0046-038-2019 is on this agenda as a separate item for approval. Ninety-five percent (95%) of the design funds will be reimbursed by the FAA once the grant is approved. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: The City funded the design of the project in the amount of $389,013.00. Most of these funds came from Airport accounts for the matching funds in the project. However, $82,013 in funds were transferred from the General Fund into the project. When the project was initially funded, staff indicated the General Fund portion would be returned once a grant offer was made and accepted. This ordinance returns those funds, contingent upon the approval of FAA grant. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: Not applicable. ALTERNATIVES: If the FAA grant is not approved, these funds will not be returned to the General Fund. RECOMMENDATION The Department of Aviation recommends approval of this ordinance. Attachments: None
