Decision Package #1. Information Technology Department Reorganization. With increased demand for technology systems across all departments and numerous modernization projects, the need for additional hands-on technical personnel has increased in recent years. Proposed is the reclassification of the Department’s Information Technology Operations Supervisor ($119,436) to Information Systems Specialist ($98,928), and the addition of a new full-time Computer Support Specialist ($89,736) position to provide support for the growing number of applications and systems used by the City’s departments. To absorb the position cost adjustments, recommended is allocation of salary savings from the underfilling of the Information Technology Operations Supervisor position and the balance ($69,228) from the department’s parttime employee budget. The reorganization introduces no additional impact to the General or Information Technology funds. The reorganization has no additional impact to the General or Information Technology funds. Recommended is an ongoing Information Technology Fund Department personnel structure change as outlined above.
Decision Package #2. Athens Annual Rate Adjustment. In the Approved Budget FY 2023- 24, Decision Package #37 Public Works Refuse Rate Adjustment increased the annual revenues and expenditures to align revenues and expenditures with the Council approved Refuse Rate Adjustment. Each year an adjustment is made at Budget to account for the new approved solid waste rates. However, the new count of households is not known before the Budget is adopted. In order to account for the increase in residential accounts serviced, an increase to the maintenance agreement is needed. Recommended is an ongoing appropriation and offsetting revenue estimate of $6,876.60 to the Solid Waste Fund.
Decision Package #3. Additional Funding for Legal Costs involved in Bankruptcy Proceeding. The City of Redondo Beach is an interested party in the case of in re 9300 Wilshire LLC Bankruptcy C.D. Cal. Case Number: 2:23-bk-10918-ER. This is not within the core budget amount for legal services. Initially $300,000 was approved by the City Council for FY 2023-24 to protect the City's interests. Recommended is a one-time appropriation of $175,000 to the General Fund to continue to protect the City's interests and the ongoing legal costs associated with this case.
Decision Package #4. User Pay Program Contracts/Professional Services. The User Pay program provides recreational opportunities for residents of all ages and are provided through individual contracts with experienced instructors. Instructors are paid 70% of the collected class registration fee following the conclusion of each activity. User Pay programs and activities continue to increase in popularity post pandemic and activity registration has exceeded forecasted totals. This has led to higher-than-expected revenue and associated expenditures to pay the contractors their share of the registration fee. Recommended is an ongoing appropriation and offsetting revenue estimate of $200,000 to the General Fund to accommodate the additional programs and activities, which is offset by activity registration revenue.
