At that time, $20,000 was originally budgeted to address some of the security deficiencies that were identified by the assessment. Initial plans were to secure and relocate the Inspections customer service counter to the front lobby. After engaging an architect to provide plans for this relocation, it became clear that additional changes were necessary. The project scope allows the City to enhance the customer service experience by consolidating all customer related services in the front lobby, allows staff to be more secure, and provides for relocation of staff that are currently working in remote City facilities. The additional funding requested in FY17 budget added to those that have been previously allocated and the City’s General Fund contingency account. Future Operating Impact: None. The building footprint remains unchanged. F IRST Q UARTER FY 20-21 These funds will be combined with the AD0006 – City Hall Conference Room Renovation Project.
