Budget as Amended INFORMATION CONTACT: Spreadsheet Donna Dean, 245-2151 Attachment 2. Automation Enhancement and Preservation Fund TELEPHONE NUMBERS: Capital Project Ordinance Hillsborough 732-8181 Attachment 3. Optical Imaging Records Chapel Hill 968.4501 System Capital Project Durham 688-7331 Ordinance Mebane 336-227-2031 PURPOSE: To approve a budget ordinance amendment and capital project ordinances for the Automation Enhancement and Preservation Fund and the Optical Imaging Records System for fiscal year 2002-03. BACKGROUND: Non-Departmental I. Throughout this fiscal year, Orange County will celebrate its 250th anniversary. Several private contributors have made monetary pledges to pay for the events surrounding the celebration. Examples of contributors include Central Carolina Bank ($10,000), the Chapel Hill-Carrboro Chamber of Commerce ($500) and Duke Power ($500). Staff anticipates receiving total contributions of about $20,000. This budget amendment allows for the receipt of those funds to cover costs associated with the 250' events. (see Attachment 1, column #1) Automation Enhancement and Preservation Fund Capital Project 2. On August 20, 2002, the Board approved a contract with American Cadastre (AmCad) for an integrated software package for the Register of Deeds Office. The price for the software package is $174,276, and the County would add this purchase to the Landfill equipment financing agreement that the Board approved in June 2002. Last year, the NC General Assembly approved legislation that required counties throughout the State to earmark ten percent of some of the fees collected by Registers of Deeds for 2 automation efforts. The revenues from this earmarking are set aside in the County's Register of Deeds Automation Enhancement and Preservation Fund Capital Project. The amount of fund collected in this fund from the original date of implementation, January 2002, through July 2002 totaled about $56,000 and current year collection projections equal about $100,000. It is recommended that costs associated with implementing the software package be paid from the Automation Enhancement and Preservation Fund Project. Estimated annual payments associated with the package are about $60,000 for a three-year period. It is also important to note that some additional expenses related to implementation may be required. This amendment provides funds to cover the implementation costs by (1) budgeting for the anticipated revenue ($100,000) for this fiscal year and (2) combining the funds previously approved in the Optical Imaging Capital Project with the Automation Enhancement Project funds. (see Automation Enhancement and Preservation Fund and Optical Imaging Records System Capital Project Ordinances). FINANCIAL IMPACT: Financial impacts are included in the background information above. RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board of County Commissioners approve the attached budget ordinance amendment, and the Automation Enhancement and Preservation Fund and the Optical Imaging Records System Capital Project Ordinances.
