CITY OF SAN BERNARDINO - REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION
Staff Report
SUBJECT:
Request to amend 2000-2001 budget transferring $20,000 from Code Compliance account
number 001-073-5505 (other professional services) to Public Services account number 001-407-
5111 (materials and supplies) to fund board-up supplies for the city abatement crew.
BACKGROUND:
In 1999, the City of San Bernardino started an abatement crew, housed in Public Services, to do
code compliance board-ups and abatements. Prior to this, private contractors had done the work.
This change has proved to be beneficial to the city by improving the quality of work and
reducing the cost of abatements. As a result of an increase in board-ups by Code Compliance
this year the abatement crew has exhausted its budget for materials to do board-ups.
Money is available in Code Compliance's budget for demolition and abatements, which can be
used for this purpose. Transfer of funds from this account to Public Services Department
materials and supplies account would provide funding for board-up supplies for the remainder of
this fiscal year.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
As the identified funds are budgeted for demolitions and abatements and are Community
Development Block Grant reimbursable there is no impact on the General Fund.
MOTION:
Authorize the Director of Finance to amend the Fiscal Year 2000-2001 adopted budget and
transfer $20,000 from Code Compliance account number 001-073-5505 (contract professional
services) to Public Services account number 001-407-5111 (materials and supplies) to cover the
cost ofthe in-house abatement program as discussed in this staff report.
