Explanation

The Public Service Department, Transportation Division, requires the wherewithal to respond to Transportation facility renovation needs that are not budgeted or provided by the Facilities Management Division, in order to correct inadequacies with equipment at the Transportation Division Facilities. An annual inspection of the equipment at the training complex revealed that repairs are needed for the HVAC system, sprinkler systems, backflow, and antifreeze systems before freezing weather begins and causes damage within the building. This ordinance will provide funding for the repairs involved to correct these deficiencies. All work will be conducted in accordance with the competitive bidding provisions of the City Code.

Fiscal Impact: Eligible funding has been identified within the Transportation Division's Street and Highway Improvement Fund. This ordinance transfers these monies between projects within this Fund, appropriates them and authorizes their expenditure.

Emergency Action is requested in order to perform these unexpected repairs at the earliest possible time in order to avoid damage within the building.
