Title
Amendment to the 2017 Capital Improvement Program for the Law Enforcement Training Center.
Body
Recommended Action: Approve the amendment to the Capital Improvement Program.
The County and City have jointly decided to purchase a new turn-key facility (i.e. the Law Enforcement Training Center, or LETC) located on the Wichita State University Innovation Campus for the purpose of conducting law enforcement training. The facility must have furniture, fixtures, and equipment for this joint operation. The approval of the Furniture, Fixtures, and Equipment (FF&E) cost sharing agreement specifies the County will take the lead on the purchase of the FF&E with the City reimbursing the County for its one-half share of the cost of FF&E within 30 days of the receipt of the County's invoice to the City.
The FF&E will not exceed the current established budget of $833,000 and will include office furniture, locker room equipment, storage room fixtures, building furnishings, lunchroom fixtures, classroom training aids, technology equipment and installation, signage, and moving expenses.
The LETC project budget is short by $209,722 to cover the entire project expenses. Additionally, $626,222 in additional budget authority is needed to be the lead on the FF&E items for purchase for both entities. $416,500 or half of the FF&E expenses will be reimbursed by the City after expenditures are completed.
