SUBJECT: A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE TRANSFER OF BUDGETED AND
APPROPRIATED FUNDS IN THE AMOUNT OF $257,996 FROM
PROJECT ACCOUNT HUAN01 - STREET RESURFACING TO
PROJECT ACCOUNT HUAN04 - VEHICLES AND EQUIPMENT-PUBLIC
WORKS FOR THE PURPOSE OF ACQUIRING A NEW STREET

SUMMARY:
This resolution approves the transfer of previously budgeted and appropriated funds in
the amount of $257,996.00 from Project Account HUAN01 - Street Resurfacing to Project
Account HUAN04 - Vehicles and Equipment-Public Works; for the purpose of acquiring
a new street sweeper in the amount of $355,996 for the Streets Division of the Public
Works Department.
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION:
On April 11, 2022, City Council authorized 15 Governmental Services Projects under
Resolution No. 14854 in an amount not to exceed $6,580,000 from Project Account
CI2113. One of these projects was the purchase of an electric sweeper for the Public
Works Department.
On December 27, 2022, by Resolution No. 15100, City Council approved an amendment
to the list of governmental service projects that had been identified in Resolution No.
14854 and the funding allocation between said projects. This amendment reallocated
funds originally intended for the purchase of a street sweeper for the Public Works
Department to other equipment based on bids received and updated cost estimates.
BACKGROUND:
The City currently has four Pelican street sweepers and one Broom Bear street sweeper
in its inventory. One of the Pelican sweepers (#110) is far beyond its useful service life
and requires replacement as soon as possible. Three of the four remaining sweepers
are generally operable at any given time, but deadline (downtime) frequencies and
maintenance/repair costs have been increasing sharply in recent years to keep the
sweepers on the road. The Public Works Department needs to begin recapitalizing its
sweeper fleet and currently has $98,351.33 available in an equipment purchase account
and will need to transfer $257,996.00 from another road maintenance account in order
to purchase a replacement Broom Bear sweeper. The Fleet Maintenance Department
will be auctioning excess equipment, including the inoperable Pelican sweeper, in the
coming weeks.
FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS:
Transferring these funds as described herein will ensure there are appropriate funds
available in Project Account HUAN04 - Vehicles and Equipment - Public Works, ensuring
that payments may be made from the appropriate account.
BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION:
Not applicable to this resolution.
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS:
Not applicable to this resolution.
ALTERNATIVES:
If this resolution is not approved by the City Council, the required funds will not be
allocated to Project Account HUAN04 - Vehicles and Equipment-Public Works.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approval of the resolution.
