Fiscal Impact/Change to Net County Cost: None - Funds to be transferred from reserves in the Fleet Internal Service Fund.
 
Background: The El Dorado County General Services Department coordinates fleet vehicle purchases for all El Dorado County Departments.
 
Reason for Recommendation: On November 14, 2006 the Board approved item 06-1808 approving the purchase of fleet vehicles.  Within that item the increased appropriation was identified as $439,350 (presented as option 1), which included vehicles budgeted in FY 05/06 but not purchased within that budget cycle.  Due to cost savings resulting from a reduction in the per unit vehicle costs together with an overall reduction in the number of vehicles purchased,  current appropriations only need to be increased by $203,710 for Fiscal Year 06/07 to complete the purchases.
 
Action to be taken following Board approval: Upon approval by Board, budget transfer for $203,710 to be forwarded to Auditors Office for processing.
