| Reason for Recommended Action/Background |
Execution of the authorizing resolution is required because said funds were not included in the Department of Community Services budget for fiscal year 2015-2016; and Section 29130 of the Government Code provides for the appropriations of these funds by a four-fifths vote of the Board of Supervisors.
The 2015-2016 approved budget amount was estimated based on building permit revenue activity for fiscal year 2014-2015. However, actual permit activity in fiscal year 2015-2016 was significantly larger with a corresponding increase in revenue. A technology fee is collected with each building permit and 83% of this technology fee is encumbered pursuant to Agreement No. 10-60 with SUNGARD as a repayment amount for the permit TRAK-it software and maintenance. Given that the total technology fee collected is greater than originally estimated, a budget amendment is necessary in order to pay the contracted 83% of the technology fee collected to SUNGUARD. |
