Summary Explanation/Background
As a result of Human Services capital project cost savings, a total of $266,000 is reallocated from the BARC Electronic Health Record System project to three Human Services capital projects in Fiscal Year 2025.
• $94,000 is proposed for a new BARC Facility Equipment project to acquire a new commercial grade washer and dryer, a new commercial steamer, and to replace furniture that has reached the end of its useful life at the BARC Booher Residential facility.
• $92,000 is proposed for a new project to replace equipment at the Central Homeless Assistance Center including a storage shed, dining room serving area equipment, and kitchen equipment.
• $80,000 is proposed to be transferred to the Nancy J. Cotterman Center’s existing Electronic Client Chart Management System project to further expand the Provide system to allow for assessments to be entered directly into the system. This enhancement will result in further process efficiencies already realized by the Provide system.
In the Fiscal Year 2025 Adopted Budget, $600,000 was appropriated to the Stockade Facility Improvements project but the project is at another Corrections facility. This action transfers $600,000 from the Stockade Facility Improvements project to the Corrections General Repairs project.
