ment in one site. Since the Lincoln Street site will no longer be needed for operations, City Council may decide to declare the site as surplus and sell the property. The sell of the property will come to City Council as a separate decision. Moving employees from the site will save approximately $17,000. 6. As a result of this merger, a Parks Superintendent position was eliminated from the Parks Services Division and transferred to PARCS Recreation Division to meet a organizational need in that workunit. In turn, PARCS Recreation transferred one Recreation Program Manager /volunteer program coordinator position to Public Works Maintenance and eliminated the other Recreation Program Man- ager position. Savings of approximately $55,000. 7. As a result of the transfer of Parks Services to Public Works and the subsequent reduction in size of PARCS, a senior -level manage- ment position, Parks and Recreation Director, was eliminated and a Management Analyst position was created to assume non - management responsibilities and various unmet needs in the PARCS Cultural Affairs Division. Savings of approximately $32,000. At full implementation of the PW /PARCS Maintenance function merger, the annu- al, on -going savings will be approximately $361,000 and a reduction of 3.5 FTEs and a transfer of 1.0 FTEs from the General Fund. Note that the $361,000 will need to be indexed up to FY94 dollars. C. POSSIBLE ONE -TIME OR FUTURE SAVINGS 1. Additional equipment may be eliminated through the combination of service delivery and support systems after further analysis. 2. Consolidation of Facilities functions and increased capital project funding for large facilities maintenance projects in FY94 will likely allow increased Energy Management enhancements and utilities savings at the Roosevelt and Cheshire sites. 3. Revenue will be realized from the sale of the Lincoln Street Facil- ity. This is a 10 acre site with a estimated land value of $350,000 -to- $400,000, based on recent sales in the area. The buildings may not be of value to most buyers and are not included in this estimate. 4. Fleet Fund will save approximately $15,000 by not having to replace the underground storage tank at the Lincoln Facility. The removal of the existing tank and clean -up of the soil at the site is still required. 5. Reduction of the equipment inventory will result in cost avoidance of the approximate $138,000 required to replace this equipment. 6. Revenue will be realized from the sale of excess equipment.
