MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 8, 2003
TO: The Honorable Mayor and Board of City Commissioners
FROM: David A. Wheeler, P.E., Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Transfer of Capital Funds to Telephone Account in Public Works
Engineering Section
This year's budget includes the purchase of a new hand held radio for the Public Works
Engineering section. The radio was budgeted at $2,000 and is included as a capital
expenditure.
The idea was to purchase a new radio similar to the Motorola brands that are currently
being used. However, the department is in the process of converting over to using
Nextel radio/cell phones and phasing out the Motorola radios, pagers and cell phones.
In addition, the old style Motorola radios cost approximately $4,500 currently and
Motorola's new model will cost approximately $2,500.
I request that the moneys earmarked to purchase a new radio under the Public Works
Engineering capital account be transferred to the Public Works Engineering telephone
account to pay for any possible additional costs for the Nextels that are being used by
that section.
