Resolution No. 2020-17 transfers a total of $927,800 from within the FY 2020 budget.    
 
 
FACTS AND FINDINGS:
 
Elevator Modernization
 
Fund 101, General Fund, Non Departmental
From: Non Departmental, Contingency, 101-60961000-61110, $627,800
To: Non Departmental, Materials and Services, 101-60961000-52670, $627,800
 
The elevators at the Civic Center campus were originally installed in 1970 and are showing considerable wear and active leaking. New replacement parts are no longer available and refurbished parts can be unreliable. Upgrades to the elevators will provide modern, safe, and reliable operations of the elevators. The replacement to a gearless, traction type is more efficient and will provide reduced operating costs, and a substantially higher ride quality.
 
Centralized Customer Service Center Model
 
Fund 101, General Fund, Non Departmental
From: Non Departmental, Contingency, 101-60961000-61110, $100,000
To: Non Departmental, Materials and Services, 101-60961000-52670, $100,000
 
With the departure of the Police Department from the Civic Center by the end of 2020, we have an opportunity to enhance the experience of City customers. The project will develop a customer-service philosophy and shared services framework, including service delivery metrics. Specific work will include analysis to help determine services that could locate in a customer service center, considering technology, finance, facilities, and human resources impacts. Work products from the budget transfer will include a business case for any change and a specific scope for customer service center implementation.
