Building Safety Fund - Building Safety - $39,000
Body
INITIATOR:
DEPARTMENT:
Michael Savage, Director
Building Safety
DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
Marion County’s construction industry is experiencing significant growth. Inspectors and investigators must operate throughout the County to enforce the Florida Building Code. To effectively address this growing demand, we are requesting an additional $39,000 in funding for Gasoline, Oil, and Lubricants to sustain inspection and investigation operations through the end of the fiscal year.
Sufficient funds exist within the Machinery and Equipment fund due to unanticipated cost savings on vehicle purchases during the previous fiscal year. Additionally, Training and Education has excess funds due to inspection demand within the County which has reduced availability of personnel to attend training.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
Neutral.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
