DISCUSSION:
In Fiscal Year 2017-18 the Engineering Department allocated $2,319,819 in funding for the Williams Creek Bridge Replacement under 1200321-0330. The project intended to span multiple years and its total construction allocation would not be expended in the 2017-18 fiscal year. Due to budget constraints, funding in the amount of $687,678 was temporarily reallocated from 1200321-0330 Williams Creek Bridge Replacement to Dinner Creek Culvert 1200321-0331.
Initially, when the project was created, consultant costs were not factored into the total estimated expenditure. The attached budget transfer request reallocates the $687,678 in funding from 1200321-2118 Professional Services back to 1200321-0330 Williams Creek Bridge, as well as an additional $312,322 for consultant, administration and construction costs.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The request, if granted, will transfer $1,000,000 from 1200321-2118 Professional Services, to 1200321-0330 Williams Creek Bridge Replacement. There is no impact to the General Fund.
STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK:
This action supports your Board’s Strategic Framework by providing for and maintaining infrastructure .
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
None
ALTERNATIVES TO STAFF RECOMMENDATIONS:
The Board could choose not to approve the Request for Budget Transfer/Adjustment. This is not recommended because the construction project is ongoing and the costs have been incurred.
