Title
Amending the 2013 Capital Budget of City Engineering to provide an increase of $31,500 in budget authority to an ongoing project to replace existing software used to design roadways and public utilities.
Body
In 2011, City Engineering's Capital Budget (Engineering - Other Projects, Project #16, Agency 810547) included $225,000 to replace existing software used for the design of roadways and public utilities as the old software had become obsolete and was no longer supported by Vendors for the City's CADD system. Beginning in 2011 and continuing throughout all of 2012 the conversion to new software took place including extensive user training. Costs were difficult to project and now as the project nears completion, an additional $31,500 is needed to complete the final task, conversion of existing City utility and base maps to the new software. This final phase is planned for early 2013.
Unused funding is available for an unrelated project within the "Engineering - Other Projects" Budget.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the 2013 Capital Budget of City Engineering is hereby amended to provide an increase of $31,500 in budget authority to an ongoing project to replace existing software used to design roadways and public utilities.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that a transfer of $31,500 in available funds be made from Underground Storage Tanks (810374) to Engineering Design Software (810547).
