SUBMITTED BY: Cindy Epperson, Director of Finance & Budget
SUMMARY EXPLANATION:
As 2013 is unfolding, 4 initiatives have been identified as requiring additional appropriation, one
comes with additional revenues to support it. Three would need to be paid from the affected
fund balance.
1. City Council asked that we review the animal control service. The Humane Society
has made a proposal to add 2 animal control officers for $51,015 for the last 6 months of 2013,
to be paid by General Fund. The resolution to contract with the Humane Society is a separate
agenda item.
2. Negotiations for the contract with the Yakima School District for School Resource Officers
(SRO) resulted in adding a Police Sergeant to oversee the program starting in the new 2013 -14
school year. The resolution to contract with the Yakima School District is a separate agenda
item. The new contract results in an additional revenue of $52,000 to be received by General
Fund in 2013 which will support an additional sergeant for 5 months (August- December).
3. The bids to reconfigure the Franklin Park parking lot to add spaces was higher than the
original estimate of $150,000 by $113,500 (a total of $263,500), primarily due to scope and
underlying condition considerations. This project is being funded by the first 1/4% Real Estate
Excise Tax (REET 1), and there is a sufficient fund balance for this one -time expense.
4. The Cowiche Canyon Conservancy (CCC) approached the Water Department requesting that
the City partner with them by assisting in their purchase of undeveloped land to keep in its
natural state, which will protect the City watershed and water resources. The Water Capital
Fund is proposing to participate in the purchase by paying CCC $70,000, representing about
20% of the total purchase cost. The resolution authorizing this transaction is on this agenda as
a separate item.
The attached appropriation adds these 4 items to the 2013 budget, which increases the total
City expenditure budget by $286,515, and the revenue budget by $52,000.
