REPORT RECOMMENDATIONS
That the Community and Protective Services Committee receive this report as supplemental information to the 2011 Draft Budget.
RECOMMANDATION
DU RAPPORT
Que le Comité des services communautaires et de
protection prenne connaissance de ce rapport à titre d’information supplémentaire au
budget préliminaire de 2011.
In January
2005, Council carried motion 27/139, which directed staff to provide pre-budget
reports in advance of the draft budget for the purchase of any new fleet. The pre-budget reports detail the following
information: proposed vehicles to be
purchased, programming rationale for purchase, expected cost and expected
savings through strategic procurement.
The Fleet
Services Branch prepares the Annual Fleet Growth and Replacement reports
respectively, on behalf of its clients, based on client-identified
requirements.
In
preparation, the respective client groups identify their growth and/or
replacement requirements and the Fleet Services Branch prepares minimum vehicle
specifications to meet the requirements in the most cost effective way.
Growth
Reports are prepared and presented to each of the following five standing
committees:
Only three reports
are required this year since clients represented by the Finance and Economic
Development Committee and Planning Committee have no vehicle growth
requirements for 2011. Each of the
remaining three reports contains specific data relative to the respective
client groups under each committee.
The City’s fleet is an integral component in achieving corporate operational objectives. As a result, a significant portion of the City’s annual Capital Budget is expended on the procurement of new fleet. In order to maintain an operationally efficient and cost effective fleet, it is critical that vehicle and equipment build-out and delivery deadlines are met each year.
The Fleet 2011 vehicle growth requests for all three Committees totals $9.3M $3.7M in capital costs with an annual operating cost of $1.124M. Only a prorated portion of the annual operating costs of $913,437will be required for 2011 based on the planned in-service date of related vehicles and equipment; the remaining $210,257 will be requested in 2012. The Draft 2011 Operating and Capital Budgets to be tabled for approval with Council will include these expenditure items. The purchase of these vehicles and the associated costs are subject to the approval of Council during the 2011 budget process.
