Roseville Public Works, Environment and <br />Transportation Commission <br />Agenda Item <br />Date: January 27, 2009 Item No: 6 <br />Item Description: 2009 Budget Impacts Follow Up Discussion <br />During the 2009 budget process staff shared some of the potential impacts that a zero increase in <br />supply and contractual maintenance line items could have on the Public Works work plan. The <br />majority of the City Manager's recommended budget was ultimately approved with some <br />additional cuts that could have some long terns impacts if additional replacement funding doesn't <br />occur in subsequent years. Equipment depreciation was eliminated from the 2009 budget which <br />will hamper the city's ability to replace equipment based on the most recent capital improvement <br />plan. We have lengthened equipment replacement schedules in recent years due to the declining <br />balance in the equipment replacement fund. This fund does not have enough balance to cover <br />planned replacements for 2009. Staff is currently evaluating the scheduled vehicles and <br />equipment to determine which if any are replaced based on anticipated repair costs for 2009 if <br />they are held for another year. <br />The street maintenance material bids will be opened the day of your meeting and will be the first <br />look at costs for the 2009 maintenance program. Staff will give a preliminary estimate of <br />whether a normal full program is feasible at your meeting. We will also discuss some early <br />bidding information we have seen from other jurisdictions projects. We will also update the <br />Commission at future meetings as we receive snore bids for contractual items. <br />Recommended Action: <br />None <br />
