Explanation
The Public Service Department, Transportation Division, employs personnel that are engaged in traffic sign and signal installation, permanent pavement marking, and roadway improvement design and construction expenses. Project costs incurred by the operating fund are salaries, overhead, overtime, materials and other direct costs. These personnel and project expenses are budgeted within and paid from the division's operating fund, the Street Construction, Maintenance and Repair Fund. These costs can be capitalized. Doing so is consistent with earlier efforts by the Division to reimburse its operating fund when the operating fund incurred expenses more appropriate to capital improvement funding.
This ordinance authorizes the expenditure of $577,000.00 or so much thereof as may be necessary for this purpose.
Fiscal Impact: This expenditure is budgeted and available within the Transportation Division's 2007 Capital Improvement Budget within the Voted 1995, 1999, 2004 Streets and Highways Fund. The 2008 revenue estimate for the Street Construction, Maintenance and Repair Fund reflects and assumes this revenue.
