May 9, 2000
Item No. 12
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: General Services Director
SUBJECT: Transfer of Funds in the Parks Division
Recommendation:
Approve the transfer of $50,000 from Account 3170 -7000 (Parks Maintenance — Regular
Salaries) to Account 3170 -8080 (Parks Maintenance — Services Prof/Tech) to fund
contract labor and contracted maintenance services for the remainder of Fiscal Year
1999 -2000.
Discussion:
In 1998, the City Council directed the privatization of the maintenance of the City parks
system over time. At the time, the Council directed that all new park facilities coming on
line be maintained by the private sector, and that existing park facilities be privatized as
employee attrition occurs.
During this Fiscal Year, three Groundsworker I openings have occurred. Parks Division
staff are currently working on a plan to privatize additional parks acreage. In the interim,
the Division has been utilizing temporary maintenance workers to fill the vacancies.
Consequently, Account 3170 -8080 will be depleted prior to the end of the Fiscal Year.
The three positions noted above have been deleted in the Department's FY 00 -01 Budget
submittal, and additional funding was requested for contract services.
At this time, we are requesting the transfer of $50,000 from Account 3170 -7000 (Parks
Maintenance — Regular Salaries) to Account 3170 -8080 (Parks Maintenance — Services
Prof/Tech) to provide for contract services, special projects, and temporary workers for
the remainder of the Fiscal Year. Even with this transfer, it should be noted that the
Division will return a minimum of $50,000 to the General Fund at the end of the year.
