Contingency transfers greater than $100,000 require Council approval and are therefore included as part of
this Budget Amendment.
1. Project Manager—Vertical Design and Construction position ($25,000 Budget Amendment and 1.0
FTE)
The City Manager's Office (CMO) has identified the need for a Project Manager position that will be
responsible for the management of the City's vertical capital projects.The purpose of this position is to
lead, direct and manage the planning, development, design and construction of new building/facility
and building/facility renovation projects for the City of College Station.The primary role of the
professional who fills this position is to collaborate and coordinate directly with the Department
Director or Chief at the City who will ultimately manage the staff, operations and/or programs to be
located at this facilities and ensure projects remain on schedule and within budget. Examples of
projects include the new Police Station, the renovation of the existing Police Station,the Library
expansion, a future Fire Station, the Arts Council Building Renovation, renovations to the Utilities
Building and a future City Hall. The requested budget amendment amount reflects an estimated three
months of salary and benefits as well as office furniture and supplies that will be needed.The budget
amendment also adds 1.0 FTE to the FY17 Revised Budget. The funds for this item are available in the
General Fund balance.The position has been forecasted and will be included in FY18 Proposed Budget.
2. Public Works Milling Machine-$550,800(Budget Amendment)
The milling machine is critical for the pavement operations of the Streets Division and is scheduled for
replacement via the Equipment Replacement Fund in FY18. Parts on the machine have been failing
and repairs are needed.The cost of repairs and the rental of a similar unit while the unit is being
repaired will exceed the expected trade-in value. Public Works has proposed to replace the milling
machine in FY17, as this is only a few months ahead of the scheduled replacement.The total purchase
price will be $550,800.The funds for this item are available in the Equipment Replacement Fund and
have been forecasted for the replacement of this vehicle.
3. Sidewalk Zone 15-$8,900(Budget Amendment)
The FY17 Approved Budget included $11,500 for sidewalk projects in Sidewalk Zone 15.The budget
was based on the amount that was in the Fund at that time. Additional contributions have since been
received, bringing the Fund balance to approximately$20,400.This item will increase the budget in
Sidewalk Zone 15 so that these funds can be used on an eligible project.The funds will be used toward
the design of the sidewalks and multiuse paths that will be constructed as part of the Holleman Drive
South street extension project.The funds for this item are available in the Sidewalk Zone 15 fund
balance.
4. City Hall Complex Facility Renovations-$125,000(Contingency Transfer)
Ongoing space limitations in the City Hall facility resulted in the transition of the Community Services
Department into off-site lease space and the subsequent transition of the Human Resources
Department into the space previously occupied by Community Services.The new Human Resources
space, as well as the former Human Resources space, required renovations prior to the space being
ready to be occupied.This item is for the transfer of General Fund contingency in the amount of
$125,000 for the cost of the renovations. As contingency transfers greater than$100,000 must be
approved by Council, this item is for the approval of these contingency transfers.
