Body
DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATION
The Chief Administrative Office is recommending that the Board approve a budget transfer allowing payment to be made from the Courthouse Construction Fund to the El Dorado County Superior Court to fund the Cameron Park Courthouse ADA upgrades project. There are currently no expenses budgeted in the Courthouse Construction Fund.
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
In 2009, the Administrative Director of the Courts approved the use of Courthouse Construction funds for ADA upgrade projects at the Building C Courthouse and the Cameron Park Courthouse.
On 5/13/14 (Legistar #14-0665, #8), the Board approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) providing that the Administrative Office of the Courts shall administer the projects, and that once each project is complete, the Superior Court shall invoice the County for reimbursement of project costs from the Courthouse Construction Fund.
The Chief Administrative Office has received notification the Cameron Park Courthouse ADA project is complete. During the course of the project, the Superior Court received authorization from the Judicial Council of California to increase the funding of the project by $2,300, as allowable by the MOU.
