Body
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the 52nd Amendment to the Annual Appropriation Resolution No. 2024-122 to appropriate $11,351,100 for operating programs and previously approved capital improvement projects in the Public Works Department.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Staff recommends the Council adopt a resolution approving the rebudget of various funding for operating programs and previously approved capital projects so that the appropriations in FY 2025 are sufficient to cover anticipated expenditures. The recommended resolution will appropriate $11,351,100 in funding to the current fiscal budget year.
BACKGROUND
Annually, the Department reviews its operating programs and capital project appropriations and recommends adjustments to complete anticipated construction during the year. This review ensures that adequate appropriations are in place to complete the programs and projects given the most recent information.
Based on a review of operating and capital improvement project budgets, a number of budgets require adjustment to meet the planned expenditures for the fiscal year. Some highlights of the rebudget are:
• The Operating Budget will be increased by $1,170,700 in order to utilize the carryover revenue from FY 2024 activities in FY 2025 to deliver service to the community. The carryover is identified for the Traffic and Engineering Services Division, Street Maintenance Division for Street Sweeping, and Landscape Maintenance Division for Median Island/Buffer Maintenance.
• Appropriations for Street and Bridge Projects are proposed to be adjusted by $2,586,800. The increase is principally due to First St Class IV Resurfacing Olive to Tulare, Veterans Ph3 SR99 Interchange & Grade Separation, and Peach Ave Jensen to Butler. A detailed list of all projects and locations is included in the attached Capital Projects Detail List.
• Appropriations for Streetlight and Traffic Signal Projects are proposed to be adjusted by $1,834,100. The increase is principally due to Blackstone Street Lighting Divisadero to Shields, ITS Adaptive Blackstone-Friant McKinley to Shepherd, and ITS Kings Canyon/Cesar Chavez Boulevard from Chestnut to Clovis. A detailed list of all projects and locations is included in the attached Capital Projects Detail List.
• Appropriations for CFD / Miscellaneous Projects are proposed to be increased by $5,759,500. This increase is to allow for final payments on the Clean California grant project including the murals, to recognize the Measure C Litter Abatement Program revenues, to make additional eligible developer reimbursements in the New Growth Area Major Street Impact Fee Program and the Traffic Signal Mitigation Impact Fee Program, and to fully fund the contractually obligated payments for the Community Facilities District 12 Copper River Maintenance District. A detailed list of all projects and locations is included in the attached Capital Projects Detail List.
The recommended Resolution would amend the appropriations within the identified operating programs and capital projects to allow for the completion of work this fiscal year. To meet the projected funding requirements, $11,351,100 in funding must be appropriated. The proposed adjustments are summarized in the table attached. Detailed adjustments are in the Amendment to the Annual Appropriation Resolution attached.
