It is Staffs recommending the three AT/IT capital projects identified above be completed as proposed. However, the City Council retains the latitude to select any number/combination of projects as they see fit. Listed below are general considerations and alternatives. (A) Authorize use of QCTV Capital Account dollars for the three AV projects identified by Staff (B) Authorize use of QCTV Capital Account dollars for an amended/reduced list of AV projects (C) Do not authorize use of QCTV Capital Account dollars for the three AV projects identified by Staff Regarding project #3 identified above (Alexander Ramsey Room) --Staff recognizes this is a significant expense. If the City Council is not comfortable with this expense, Staff would suggest completely removing project #3 from a Council motion. However, it should be identified, this work does need to be completed. This is an expense that cannot be avoided; it can only be delayed. As mentioned, included in your case are a number of Staff comments regarding this proposed project. Regarding the QCTV Capital Account dollars --in a previous Council meeting an inquiry was raised regarding the potential use of these dollars for a different project (i.e. the PD camera system, approved on 06/10/2014). As outlined in this case, the City has atotal of $100,000 available from QCTV ($50,000 in 2013, $50,000 in 2014). If the Council is interested in allocating QCTV dollars to a specific project (i.e. the PD camera system), or for different use, Staff would suggest that discussion occur during the upcoming budget discussions. At this point, if the Council authorized work identified in this case, the remainder of QCTV Capital Equipment dollars would still be available for other projects (i.e. $61,000-$72,500). Funding Source: See background section. QCTV allocation ($100,000), deposited in the Equipment Revolving Loan Fund. Recommendation: See "Alternatives" section above for details.
