Title
Amending capital fund budgets to provide additional funding for the Police Impound Lot Capital Maintenance Project.
Body
WHEREAS, in the 2023 Capital Maintenance Program the Police Department received $1,025,475 to create a new customer service center at its impound lot site on Barge Channel Road (the "Impound Lot Project"); and
WHEREAS, the Impound Lot Project entailed the installation of a 4-wide trailer of approximately 4,000 square feet, as well as grading and utility connections, to serve customers and house Police personnel at the site; and
WHEREAS, after bidding out the work to private contractors, the project costs have risen and there is a need for additional funding. Earlier in 2025 the Impound Lot Project received a transfer of $52,393 of surplus funding from two other Police capital maintenance projects, but the transfer was insufficient to cover all anticipated costs; and
WHEREAS, Police has identified additional surplus funding from the 2025 K-9 Facility Driveway Project and has requested additional funding from CIB Contingency to fully fund the Impound Lot Project; and
WHEREAS, the City now desires to reallocate funding between the aforementioned projects and accounts in order to fully fund the Impound Lot Project; and
WHEREAS, the Mayor, pursuant to Section 10.07.1 of the Charter of the City of Saint Paul, does certify that there is available for appropriation and reallocation, funding within the current Capital Improvement Budget for the aforementioned purposes; now,
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Council of the City of Saint Paul, upon recommendation of the Mayor and the advice of the Long Range Capital Improvement Budget Committee, that the Capital Improvement Budget, as heretofore adopted and amended by the Council, is hereby further amended in the particulars as indicated in the attached Financial Analysis.
