Fiscal Note
The proposed resolution amends the 2022 Adopted Capital Budgets for Engineering - Major Streets and Engineering - Other. The resolution transfers $265,000 GO Borrowing from the Reconstruction Streets program (major 10226) into the Right-of-Way Landscaping program (major 11082). This provides funding to convert 22 planting beds to grass/turf.
Additionally, this resolution amends the 2022 Adopted Operating Budget to transfer $92,000 from the contingent reserve to the Engineering & Administration service to support maintenance of 41 planting beds planned for conversion to turf to remain as planting beds in 2022. If this item and Legistar File 70915 are both adopted, the remaining balance in the contingent reserve will be $1,688,000.

A contract converting 25 medians with planting beds to concrete was presented to the Board of Public Works to authorize advertisement at the April 6th meeting. The additional funding proposed with this budget amendment/transfer is required to allow for capital improvements to reconstruct 62 traffic medians with planting beds into turf only and an additional 2 medians with planting beds to concrete.
These capital projects are required to reduce operation and maintenance costs associated with medians with planted beds. Maintenance of medians with planting beds is funded by the General Operating Budget. For 2022, this portion of the Operating Budget was significantly reduced from $165,000 to $86,422. Reducing the quantity of planted medians will reduce the operating costs.
