HomeMy WebLinkAboutFS 2016-03-22 Item 2B - Budget - 2016 Budget Amendments: Revenue Backed and Carryover�yz City of Tukwila TO: INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM Mayor Ekberg Finance and Safety Committee FROM: Peggy McCarthy, Finance Director DATE: March 16, 2016 SUBJECT: 2016 Budget Amendments — Revenue Backed and Carryover Allan Ekberg, Mayor ISSUE Approve revenue backed and carryover budget amendments for inclusion in the year -end budget amendment ordinance that will be presented to Council in November 2016. BACKGROUD Revenue Backed Amendments. The August 2015 budget amendment added expenditure budget for two Police officers and added corresponding revenue budget for the salary and benefit reimbursement to the City for these officers. One officer is dedicated to the Auto Theft Task Force and the other officer is dedicated to the Criminal Justice Training Center for the Basic Law Enforcement Academy. The officers continue to serve in this capacity in 2016; additional revenue and expenditure budget is needed to reflect this arrangement. Budget for the 2015 COPs grant was included in the November 2015, mid - biennial budget amendment. However, the amendment inadvertently applied the revenue against the expenditure budget, thus understating both the revenue and expenditure budget for this item. To correct this, revenue budget and expenditure budget is added through this proposed budget amendment. Because these are revenue backed amendments, there is no effect on the ending fund balance. Carryover Amendment. At the December 8, 2015 Finance and Safety Committee meeting a contract for $93,179.24 to upgrade the Laserfiche digital records system was presented and subsequently approved. The funding source for the software upgrade was identified as anticipated 2015 City Attorney's budgetary savings. The budgetary savings were realized in 2015 (the City Attorney's budget was underspent by $106,978) but the Laserfiche upgrade, Laserfiche Rio, was not purchased until 2016. The budget carryover for the Laserfiche Rio purchase is thus proposed through this amendment. DISCUSSION The Council is being asked to approve these amendments so the adjustments can be recorded in the accounting records and reflected in future financial reports. The amendments will be formally adopted during the year -end budget amendment process in November. RECOMMENDATION The Council is being asked to approve the proposed 2016 budget amendments and consider this item at the March 28, 2016 Committee of the Whole, and April 4, 2016 Regular Council Meeting. The amendments will be included in the year -end budget amendment ordinance.

BACKGROUND The City Clerk's Office acquired a basic Laserfiche system in 2001 which has been used to develop a Digital Records Center (DRC) for online access by staff and the public. The system is used daily by staff City -wide and allows for digital delivery of documents to the public, with 24 hour access. DISCUSSION Laserfiche Rio is the upgrade to the basic product and is a robust enterprise content, document and Records Management system that provides a centralized records storage system for the entire City. The Rio system offers separate repositories to allow full security for departments such as the Court, Police, and Human Resources. The upgrade will also provide unlimited public portal retrieval licenses through a web browser. In the 14 years since the initial acquisition, few improvements have been made City -wide to automate records processes to increase efficiency and to facilitate timely and thorough responses to public records requests. Upgrading to the Rio solution will add vital new features to the basic system, to include workflow functions that will send automatic reminders regarding critical deadlines and allow for electronic approvals. The enhanced system will also include Records Management capabilities for life cycle management of records from creation to final disposition helping to ensure compliance with State retention laws. The Laserfiche system is utilized both nationally and regionally as an effective tool in developing records solutions for Police, Fire, DCD, Public Works, Human Resources, Finance and Court records. Expertise developed in the Clerk's Office using the system for the past 14 years can be leveraged to assist the advancement of other City departments. Washington agencies using Laserfiche include and are not limited to Auburn, Renton, Edmonds, Port Angeles, Tumwater, Port Angeles, Walla Walla, Spokane Valley, Longview, Bremerton, Thurston County, Cowlitz County, and Skagit County. As the Court staff explored requirements for the new OCourt System, they became aware that the Renton Municipal Court uses the Laserfiche System. However, the Renton system has the advanced features being requested in this proposal. The Renton Court staff manage and access their court records electronically, creating time - saving efficiencies throughout the various judicial processes. This presents an incredible opportunity for Tukwila, as Renton has already completed the labor intensive steps to create workflow processes for court functions. They are INFORMATIONAL MEMO Page 2 willing to share the scripts, programming, and instructions they have developed with Tukwila. This collaborative relationship with Renton could move the Court forward quickly into effective implementation, if upgrades to our system are acquired. Moreover, with the implementation of GR31.1 as it relates to the administrative records of the courts, the upgrade to the Laserfiche System will ease the impact of court records requests. The new efficiencies provided by the Laserfiche upgrade will create more streamlined and accurate processes in supporting both court case and administrative records. The Technology Services (TS) Database Systems Administrator has been a key player in reviewing the Laserfiche system upgrade and providing valuable input (see attached email). Additionally, the City's Technology Council approved the acquisition of this upgrade at their November 16, 2015 meeting. The City Attorney has reviewed the proposal and composed the attached Resolution authorizing sole source purchase of the upgrade. FINANCIAL IMPACT Estimated Cost: $93,179.24 for Laserfiche Rio Upgrade to be part of the 2016 budget amendment. PRIORITIES ADDRESSED BY PROPOSAL • Create and implement policies that support continued financial stability and sustainability • Implement new methods to streamline processes creating alignment with Strategic Plan • Continue to Create a More Effective Organization (Implement new methods to streamline processes creating alignment with Strategic Plan Goal #4) RECOMMENDATION The Council is being asked to consider this item at the December 14, 2015 Committee of the Whole meeting for discussion and the Special Meeting Consent Agenda that same evening.
