HomeMy WebLinkAboutAdopt Building CIP for 2015-2019 Commission Memorandum REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: Anna Rosenberry, Administrative Services Director SUBJECT: Adopt the Building Inspection Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for Fiscal Years 2015-2019. AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent MEETING DATE: November 18, 2013 RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the Building Inspection Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for Fiscal Years 2015-2019. BACKGROUND: Each year, the City Manager is required to prepare a 5 Year Capital Improvements Plan and submit it to the Commission by December 15th. Similar to recent years past, we are bringing the various parts of the plan forward as items on the Consent agenda. We will have staff available during that time to answer questions from Commissioners or the public, as necessary. Building Inspection and other city staff met in October to develop the attached Capital Plan for the equipment needs of the Building Inspection division. Item of Note: • Given current information, no vehicle replacements are planned in the 5-year period. • If/when a new building inspector is hired, the department will need to purchase another inspection vehicle. All current vehicles are assigned to staff in the field. UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None. 71 ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the City Commission. FISCAL EFFECTS: This step in the process has no fiscal effect. Once adopted, the Capital Improvements Plan becomes the basis of the City Manager’s Recommended Budget for FY15.

INSP. PROJECT NAME STAFF VEHICLE - REPLACEMENTS FY15 FY16 Unscheduled $292,500 DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT This item is for the scheduled replacement of Building Inspection vehicles based on age and use of the vehicle. Vehicles will be replaced according to the City's Vehicle Replacement policy; generally, 150,000 miles/20 years before replacement of non- emergency vehicles. This program will address the long term vehicle needs of the Building Division by allowing careful replacement of vehicles as vehicle conditions and department needs warrant. Right now, all vehicles are in use by Department staff, averaging approx 5,000 miles per year. Vehicle Mileage updated October 2013. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Utilize vehicles beyond the recommendations of the vehicle use policy; consider replacements of different model of vehicle. ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Based on the age and use of the vehicle a new vehicle will be purchased as replacement. In the past, vehicles were replaced after 5 years. We are stretching the useful life within the division to match the newly-revised vehicle purchase/replacement policy. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Generally, annual operating and maintenance costs are expected to decrease when older vehicles are replaced with newer ones. More fuel efficiency and lower repair costs are financial benefits. FUNDING SOURCES 100% Building Inspection Fund New Replacement Equipment Project FY17 FY18 FY19 76 CIP Project Fund Building Inspection PROJECT NUMBER BI03 DEPARTMENT BUILD. INSP. PROJECT NAME STAFF VEHICLE - ADDITION FY15 FY16 Unscheduled $32,500 DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT The existing vehicle fleet is assigned to current staff (see BI01 - Replacements). When a new Building Inspector is hired, a new vehicle will need to be purchased. We are hoping to make improvements to existing Inspector efficiency with in-the-field mobile applications and equipment; however, the point will come when an additional inspector is needed on a full or part-time basis. Regardless of whether their work schedule, a vehicle is a criticial piece of equipment for an inspector that needs. ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED Have inspectors/staff share vehicles (not likely to be efficient use of inspector time.) ADVANTAGES OF APPROVAL Staff will be adequately equipped to perform building inspections around town. ADDITIONAL OPERATING COSTS IN THE FUTURE, IF FUNDED Annual Operating and Maintenance Costs: Because this is an addition to the fleet, additional gas and maintenance costs will be paid by the Building Inspeciton Fund. Currently, vehicles average 5,000 - 8,000 miles per year. Routine maintenance will be performed as necessary.
