Explanation
BACKGROUND: This ordinance authorizes the transfer of $91,559.00 within the Fleet Management Fund 513. Unencumbered balances from Services and Capital will be moved into Materials and Supplies so that appropriation levels will be sufficient to establish necessary purchase orders for parts for the Division of Fleet Mangement's usage. This ordinance will also authorize the Finance and Management Director to issue various purchase orders for parts, supplies and services. The expenditures authorized are from Universal Term Contracts and State Term Contracts. The Division of Fleet Management has successfully made an effort this year to reduce its reliance on outside services. As Fleet Management mechanics repair more of the fleet than outside contractors, it becomes necessary to move budgeted money from services to parts.
FISCAL: Unencumbered appropriation balances in Services and Capital will be transferred into Materials and Supplies. Purchase orders will be created so that Fleet Management will have access to parts and services needed to complete work orders through the remainder of this year. This ordinance does not increase Fleet Management's overall 2009 budget.
Emergency action is requested in order to ensure an uninterrupted supply of automotive parts, supplies and services thereby keeping all City vehicles in operation until the passage of the 2010 budget.
