Introduced by the County Services and Finance Committees of the:

RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING A BUDGET ADJUSTMENT TO PURCHASE A REPLACEMENT COURIER VAN IN 2004

RESOLUTION #04-156

WHEREAS, through annual chargebacks to user departments, funds are set aside in the intergovernmental services fund to allow for the replacement of the courier van every three years; and

WHEREAS, the courier van was last replaced in 2001, and replacement should have been budgeted in 2004; and

WHEREAS, increasing repair costs and current favorable pricing make delaying the replacement of the van for an additional year undesirable; and

WHEREAS, replacement of the courier van was not included in the 2004 Adopted Budget, but funds are available in the intergovernmental services fund balance.

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Controller is authorized to adjust the budget in order to increase the use of fund balance in the intergovernmental services fund to purchase a new courier van at a cost of $15,635, in accordance with county purchasing policies.
