Resolution 4674Page 1 of 1 Commission Memorandum REPORT TO: Honorable Mayor and City Commission FROM: Anna Rosenberry, Administrative Services Director SUBJECT: COMMISSION RESOLUTION NO. 4674 - A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF BOZEMAN, MONTANA, AMENDING FISCAL YEAR 2016 (FY16) WASTEWATER FUND BUDGET TO INCLUDE THE DIGESTER REPAIRS AT AN ADDITIONAL COST OF $125,000. MEETING DATE: March 7, 2016 AGENDA ITEM TYPE: Consent RECOMMENDATION: Approve Resolution No 4674 after taking public comment, with any modifications made by the Commission. BACKGROUND: The Water Reclamation Facility has been working to repair the Digester Mixers at the plant, related to the approved and budgeted Capital Improvements Item WW43 – Digester Mixer Repair. Additional concrete repair work needs to be completed in order to properly repair the mixers. This was unknown at the time of the capital plan and budget. The additional work has been designed and estimated by professional engineers to total $125,000. The increased appropriation will be funding by using existing cash on hand in the Wastewater Fund, thereby reducing Fund Balance. It is estimated that fund balance will be $3,718,054 after the expenditure of this additional appropriation, and all other FY2016 appropriations. UNRESOLVED ISSUES: None. ALTERNATIVES: The Commission could choose to wait and budget for this replacement in FY2017, which begins July 1, 2016. Or, the Commission could choose not to fund the request at this time. FISCAL EFFECTS: Appropriations will be increased by $125,000, and fund balance will decrease by $125,000 in FY2016. Cash is currently available in the fund to make this purchase.
