ii <br />REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />DEC 9.2002 <br />Date: 12/09/0^,;n y OF orono <br />Item No: <br />Department Approval:Administrator Reviewed:Agenda Section: <br />Name: <br />Title: <br />Stephany Good <br />Chief of Police <br />Item Description: Police Department Purchase Request <br />DISCUSSION <br />The police department has refrained from purchasing items approved for the 2002 budget due to <br />concerns with personnel costs and other possible budget shortfalls (i.e. squad maintenance, fuel, <br />etc.). A conservative approach has been taken throughout the year and it appears funds will <br />remain in the 2002 budget for several approved purchases. <br />The police dcpu.1mcnt requests council approval for the following priority expenditures: <br />1) Furnish sergeant office with three workstations $5,000 <br />I Replacement radar $1,900 <br />1 computers, I printer (sergeant office) $2,000 <br />Digital camera: Crime scene & evidence $ 600 <br />Cabcling and data-ports_________ $1,000 <br />2) <br />3) <br />4) <br />5) <br />Total $10,500 <br />It is necessary to account for all outstanding 2002 obligations in order to accurately deicmiine the <br />amount of surplus funds. Because invoices may not be received until January or even February, <br />the amount of the surplus will not be known until that time. At that time, the Council will be <br />asked to approve a budget carryover from the 2002 budget based on the surplus funds available. <br />COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED <br />Motion to authorize all or a portion of the above expenditures using 2002 budget dollars, subject <br />to approval of a budget carryover in 2003, based on the surplus funds available from the 2002 <br />Police budget expenditures. <br />c <br />i
