2 <br /> The attached Funding Status of 1999-09 Approved Capital Projects spreadsheet (page 4 of this <br /> abstract) provides a funding summary for all County projects included in the most recent ten <br /> year capital plan (including projects funded prior to fiscal year 1999-00). On June 21, the Board <br /> extended until June 30, 2000 the expiration date for those projects that existed prior to fiscal <br /> year 1999-00 and were due to expire on June 30, 1999. In addition, the Commissioners have <br /> approved two county project ordinances this fiscal year—Affordable Housing Capital Project <br /> Ordinance and County Facilities Roofing Capital Project Ordinance. <br /> Several County capital projects were included in the approved CIP. These projects have <br /> relatively small scopes of work or involve equipment and machinery purchases. In-house Public <br /> Works staff can do the majority of the projects related to replacing HVAC equipment and <br /> improving building systems. Historically, the County orders vehicles and major equipment <br /> during the spring to coincide with State contracts. Timing is such that staff is ready to begin <br /> work on the projects and place orders for equipment and vehicles. The chart below briefly <br /> describes each project while the attached capital project*ordinances provide for the funding <br /> outlined: <br /> Capital Project 1999-00 CIP Funding Source <br /> Appropriation <br /> (as included in <br /> the approved <br /> 1999-09 CIP) <br /> Animal Shelter—replacement o RVAC units $12,000 '/Z cent sales tax <br /> )f <br /> Court Street Annex—install new electrical panels and provide $115,000 Y2 cent sales tax <br /> for additional service <br /> EMS1911 Center—replace BV,4C system $10,500 Y2 cent sales tax <br /> Environmental Resources Conservation—purchase $150,000 1/2 cent sales tax and <br /> environmentally sensitive lands or development rights in order to transfer from General <br /> preserve open-space within the County Fund <br /> Equipment and Records Storage—construction of an equipment $69,575 V2 cent sales tax <br /> shelter far the Public Works Department <br /> Equipment and Vehicles—provides funds to purchase vehicles $1,001,850 Y2 cent sales tax and <br /> and major equipment for several County departments including grants <br /> Sheriff, EMS and Motor Pool fleet replacements <br /> Government Services Annex—replace retaining walls located at $10,000 Y2 cent sales tax <br /> the rear of the building <br /> Information Technology—purchase equipment, GISproducts, $970,000 Y2 cent sales tax and <br /> address citizen access,professional services intergovernmental <br /> revenues <br /> Justice Facility Planning—professional services necessary to $100,000 Y2 cent sales tax <br /> finalize plans <br /> New Courthouse—replace carpeting and install security $50,000 Y2 cent sales tax <br /> measures <br />
