Item - 2019.BU8.8

The Budget Committee recommends to the Executive Committee that:

1.  City Council authorize the reallocation of project costs and cash flows in Solid Waste Management Services' Approved 2019 Capital Budget and 2020-2028 Capital Plan in the amount of $4.109 million from projects that have been awarded under budget or delayed to those requiring additional funding in the amount as presented in Schedule A to the report (August 22, 2019) from the General Manager, Solid Waste Management Services with a zero budget impact.

This report requests City Council's authority to amend Solid Waste Management Services' Approved 2019 Capital Budget and 2020-2028 Capital Plan by adjusting project cost and cash flows contained within the Budget and Plan, respectively, to align forecasted project accelerations and deferrals.  Additional reallocations to project cash flows and project costs are requested where recent project bids or estimates exceed the current approved cash flow.  These reallocations will allow Solid Waste Management Services to continue to deliver projects within its capital plan.  The adjustments will have a zero dollar impact on the 2019 Capital Budget and 2020-2028 Capital Plan and will align the budget and plan with Solid Waste Management Services' capital project delivery schedule and project requirements.
