ASSEMBLY AGENDA/MANAGER'S REPORT
THE CITY AND BOROUGH OF JUNEAU, ALASKA

Transfer T-959 transfers $90,000 from CIP P46-090 (OHV Park Site Analysis) to CIP NEW P46-099 (Parks & Rec Department Review).

MANAGER'S REPORT:

In pursuit of an Assembly goal, the Manager has asked for assistance in locating sufficient funds to do a review of the Parks and Recreation, Police, and Fire Departments.

Due to the difficulties of finding an acceptable site, the OHV planning CIP has stalled. Given our financial situation, it does not appear likely that this CIP goal will move forward in the near future.   Given that, it was recommended to transfer funds from the OHV CIP to a new CIP which would fund the departmental review effort.
 
The OHV project holds approximately $240K of sales tax. A preliminary estimate provided by a consultant to the Manager’s Office for a department review totaled approximately $90K.

The Public Works and Facilities Committee reviewed this transfer at its July 14, 2014 meeting, and recommended forwarding funding for the Parks and Recreation Department review to the full Assembly for approval.

RECOMMENDATION:

The Manager recommends approval of this transfer.
