Au.qust 10, 2004 0-~ · Since this is a new project, it needs to be included in Capital Improvement Program for FY 2004-2005 under "Municipal Facilities." The new project line will be entitled, "Building Additions to the Sheriff's Work Center." Financial Impact: · The cost of the total project is estimated to be $234,000. · The Sheriff has recommended transferring $154,000 from an existing project line in the Capital Improvement Program entitled, "Jail Security." This line may be reduced by this amount due to a change in maintenance of the Jail. · The Sheriff has also committed $80,000 from his "Canteen Funds" budget line toward the cost of this project.
