| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
The General Services Department is requesting an amendment of the 2018-2019 authorized equipment list to reflect revised priorities and pricing increases related to Parks equipment purchases. When the equipment requests were developed for the 2018-19 fiscal year, the department was confident that a moderate sized generator would adequately address infrastructure concerns at the Cache Creek Campground. However, during the fiscal year it became apparent a higher capacity generator was needed. The amendment increases the dollar value of the generator purchase from $10,739 to $19,000.
To offset the increased amount to purchase the generator, the purchase of a wood chipper can be postponed until the 2019-20 fiscal year, as the need for expanded replacement of picnic tables at the campground has been identified. The department is requesting to delete the wood chipper from the authorized equipment list and increase the value for picnic tables, from $35,000 to $54,739. Additional picnic table replacement may still be needed; however, the department will request the appropriate funding through the 2019-20 fiscal year budgeting process. |
