MEETING DATE: July 16, 2007 BACKGROUND: We continue our update of the FY2008-FY2012 Capital Improvements Plan with review of the General Fund. Developing a Capital Improvements Plan is, first and foremost, a planning process - adopting any CIP does not provide budget appropriation authority. Items must be included in a budget resolution before they are funded – and the General Fund items listed in the FY2008 column have been included in the City Manager’s Recommended Budget. Revenue Estimates: For the purpose of this CIP, we used the FY08 budget estimates. Future allocation of general fund revenues are scheduled at 5% of total general fund revenues. Other Funding Sources: The sale of the current City Hall site and voter-approved bond issues are needed to fund projects on this list. See page 3 of the Financial Summaries for details. Project Cost Estimates: All project and equipment costs are estimates that will not be finalized until the City accepts a qualified bid for that specific project or equipment. We have used the best information available to us at this time. Deficit Balances: These schedules show one planned deficit during the course of the 5- year period, recovering to a positive balance by year five. In general, the City approves CIP plans with deficit funding years, as long as the deficit is expected to be recovered by the end of 334 year five of the plan. In this case, for the general fund, the deficit is small and can be shielded by the general fund cash reserve. RECOMMENDATION: Review the attached information and approve, with any modifications. FISCAL EFFECTS: Approving these schedules does not provide appropriation authority. The FY08 projects and equipment have been incorporated into the FY08 City Manager’s Recommended Budget, which requires final approval before these projects will be funded. The remaining plan years serve as a work plan to guide staff, and will be reviewed and revised in the coming fall. ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the Commission.

Fund 01 Unscheduled o New Replacement The elevator in the Professional Building is a three stop otis elevator The elevator was installed when the second floor was added in 1972 Since the City purchased the building re modeling has occurred on both the main floor and second floor Maintenance contracts are in place for the elevator and as the contracts have been negotiated upgrades and general improvements have been included in these contracts The elevator is to the point where many technological improvements have been made in elevator technology and a change out would yield both improved service and some reductions in energy savings While the elevator is still a safe system there are some inherent problems with the operation of the elevator Of the four elevators owned by the City this system experiences the most downtime One big problem is the leveling systems and the way the rails and tracks are mounted in the building If someone loads the elevator heavy to one side or another the balance alarm will engage and the elevator has to be reset A new car and track system would solve the nuisance trips associated with this elevator Continue to maintain and adjust the elevator operating systems throughout the year The current electronics for the building are also a source of increased vigilance on the system and the electrical components on the system had to be traced back this year on two occasions to determine the problems of uneven voltages associated with the system A new car rail system and control package would add to the reliability of the elevator operation and the address the accessibility requirements for a municipal building Annual Operatinq and Maintenance Costs A new system would reduce some of the maintenance costs currently associated with this elevator A new system would also include a number of technological improvements such as a solid state slow start motor yielding reduced energy costs associated with the high demand motors used in elevator systems General Fund and Building Inspection Fund Capital Improvements Plan FY08 12 342 Project Name Records Storage Building Estimated Cost Project Number Pur ose Project Description Alte rn atives Considered Advantages of Approving this Project Estimated New Future Recurring Costs Funding Sources City ofBozeman 350 000 General Fund 02 Unscheduled New 0 Replacement The City of Bozeman was incorporated in 1883 Needless to say over the past 120 years we have generated many permanent documents and many that have a long life In conjunction with the development of a comprehensive records management program for the City it is imperative that we have a place for storing and managing those records At the present time those documents are scattered throughout the community We have the old jail cells in the basement of the City Hall Complex that are quickly becoming full to overflowing and the basement of City Hall is a royal organizational nightmare The Police Department is leasing space for storage of some of their records and Im sure there are many other unmet needs in various departments The costs of this facility would not need to be borne by the general fund the building inspection water sewer and garbage funds could also be tapped I envision the construction of a cinder block building maybe something like 40 feet by 50 feet on existing city land The building to be a good records storage area must be climate and humidity controlled Also rows of metal shelving would be required along with the availability of shelving for open documents and shelving to accommodate boxes As we are becoming more technological it would also be beneficial to have a small area to store the various electronic mediums One of the critical things is ensuring that the information on electronic mediums is migrated through technology changes so it can be retrieved years in the future Continue to struggle with inadequate and scattered records storage space and the potential that permanent or long term documents become damaged destroyed or lost Protecting the history of the City and ensuring it is available for the future Annual Operatinq and Maintenance Costs There would be ongoing utility and maintenance costs involved I m assuming that those costs would be minimal in the overall operations of the City probably less than 20 000 per year General Fund and Enterprise Funds As their records could be stored in the facility too Capital Improvements Plan FY08 12 343 Project Name Estimated Cost Project Number Pur ose Project Description Alternatives

Replacement The cemetery is currently in the process of expanding and developing a 15 acre area for future burial sites After the site has been properly sloped and graded a 4 water main extension approximately 350 feet long will be installed for irrigation purposes This extension will have six 2 water main taps to eventually irrigate over 1000 new individual burial lots It is critical that this area be developed within five years as a possible shortage of burial lots could occur The 4 water main extension is an essential part of this process None A permanent water source has to reach this area Purchasing the materials and possibly having the assistance of the Water Department would cut the cost of this project considerably over contracting it out New modern irrigation systems will be installed from this water main extension This will improve the effectiveness and efficiency of water distribution The next cemetery expansion won t be needed for another 15 to 20 years due to this project Annual Operatinq and Maintenance Costs A slight increase of irrigation costs because of increased water volume usage Eventual increased income from future burial lot sales 100 General Fund

ladder truck in that it has a platform at the tip of the ladder that allows firefighters to operate water streams and perform rescue and other operations from the tip of the ladder device while it is in operation a capability we do not currently have The City s ladder truck was purchased in 1986 and has served the community well for over 20 years Recent required annual UL ladder tests have revealed that the ladder beds are beginning to twist and warp from use and age Additionally the open air rear cab violates firefighter safety requirements of NFPA as firefighters are exposed to

Main Street Wireless Pilot Project Outcomes are expected to improve wireless internet access for low to median households and create community public safety information technology access This project is also designed to create access to information technology for other public service agencies Full expansion of this project will bring free 256K internet access to all citizens and visitors of Bozeman providing internet services to those that can not currently afford them This limited free bandwidth will fill the needs of school children researching homework and households needing basic email communications and access to public information via the web This project will also enhance the capabilities of the city s public safety agencies through communication and data sharing capabilities Police Officers will have reaHime access to digital building schematics that can improve response time and physical safety on the street Officers will have the capability to access important criminal justice system information through the system enhancing communications and officer safety Officers will truly carry their office in their cars meaning more police officers on the street not at a desk After providing low income accessibility and city services Bozeman plans to wholesale excess bandwidth via a competitive bid process to local Internet Service Providers We expect this to increase the availability of wireless internet services in our area especially for those that do not currently have cable or phone services Pay private sector ISPs Bresnan Qwest for leased services This still doesn t address the need for mobility in communications and connectivity Increased response time and accuracy for emergency services personnel Improved network sustainability in the event of a natural disaster Cost advantages to municipal owned bandwidth versus leased services Economic development leveraged by technology Better overall public service by increasing field services efficiency through mobile communications Annual Ooeratinq and Maintenance Costs Annual operating costs are estimated at 400 000 Much of this is expected be recovered by the sale of excess

could be rotated into the police department parking program travel cars traded in sold at auction or transferred to another division within the city that will not need them to perform as an emergency vehicle Purchase of new vehicles however due to costs I believe lease returns will be more cost efficient to the city Continue to take used line cars rotated from the atrol division Would drastically reduce maintenance costs mechanical concerns and provide many years of reliable service Increased public safety and officer safety in providing mechanically sound emergency response vehicles reduced risk and liability related to use of unreliable cars Annual Operatinq and Maintenance Costs Reduction in maintenance costs and possible reduction in fuel costs 100 General Fund Capital Improvements

older Department vehicles that are unreliable and costly to repair as emergency response vehicles Patrol vehicles are an essential item in the operation of the Police Department Police vehicles are used 24 hours a day 365 days a year These vehicles are used to respond to emergency and nonvemergency calls for service investigate accidents effect traffic enforcement and for general patrol duties The present fleet of patrol vehicles is composed of 10 vehicles 2 vehicles are dedicated and assigned to K 9 use Maintenance costs have greatly increased due to increased calls for service and additional officers using the cars These patrol vehicles average 2 000 miles a month or 24 000 miles annually The useful life of a vehicle for patrol use is 3 years each however by increasing the patrol fleet to 13 units this useful life should be able to be extended thus reducing overall operational costs None This insures safe and reliable emergency response vehicles for patrol use as well as lower annual maintenance costs due to lower annual miles driven per vehicle and a lower number of miles driven per year per unit When patrol vehicles are retired from service they are cycled to Support Services and as travel cars for Department employees who need to attend out of town training and events Support Services Division includes downtown parking residential parking and animal control services Additionally the oldest vehicles in the fleet are offered to other Departments within the City thus offering a substantial cost savings to them Annual Ooerating and Maintenance Costs There may be a moderate increase in preventive maintenance costs such as oil changes filter replacements etc These should be more than offset by the increased useful life of each unit for patrol 100
