ity of <br /> <br />'ver <br /> <br />TO: <br /> <br />FROM: <br /> <br />DATE: <br /> <br />SUBJECT: <br /> <br /> **ITEM 6.6.** <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br /> Mayor & City Council <br /> <br /> Pat Klaers, City Administrator <br /> <br /> March 11, 1996 <br /> <br /> Consider Purchase of Office Furniture <br /> for Police Department <br /> <br />A few months ago, the City Council authorized some promotions within the <br />Police Department. These promotions included an additional sergeant and <br />two additional corporals. In order to improve the work environment for these <br />promoted employees, some additional office furniture is needed. In general, <br />the two corporals are moving from the large patrol work area into a smaller <br />office that will be shared, and a sergeant is being relocated to a previously <br />vacant office. The corporals are not on duty at the same time so, while they <br />will be sharing the same work environment, we won't have four people (3 <br />corporals and i sergeant) in one office at one time. <br /> <br />The Council is requested to approve the expenditure of approximately $5,800 <br />for office furniture to accommodate the work environment for the corporals <br />and sergeants. This office furniture is under the state contract and this <br />proposal is requested by the chief and his sergeants. The source of funds for <br />this expenditure will be the 1996 Police Department budget. However, this <br />expenditure was not scheduled when the budget was approved and it may be <br />necessary to use the City Hall/Government Buildings reserve fund, but we <br />can make this final determination of a funding later in the year. <br /> <br />Action Requested <br /> <br />The City Council is requested to authorize the expenditure of $5,768.25 to <br />Facility Systems for office furniture. <br /> <br />s:\councilkofffurn.doc <br /> <br />13065 Orono Parkway · P.O.
