MEETING AGENDA ITEM.
Dear Mayor Chao, Vice Mayor Moore, Councilmembers and Staff,
Please PULL CONSENT ITEM 5. This is a $4.4M project that appears to be asking to spend far more
than what was found to be needed!
There are several items in the Staff Report that concern me:
Phase I which was completed was the ERP Needs Assessment of the City
This indicated a level between Tier 1 and Tier 2 yet the request is to go “high-end Tier 2”.
This is asking for far more than what is needed.
Q1: What were the ERP needs that were found to be needed?
Q2: Can you specify what is in Tier 1 and Tier 2 and what is “high-end Tier 2”?
Also, the Staff Report states that this project was put on hold due to the budget crisis but now that we
have money we can spend it!
Q3: By “sufficient savings” is the Staff referring to using a portion of the $64.5M in 1-time funds that
have not been allocated yet?
Q4: If not, where are the “sufficient savings” coming from?
Sincerely,
Peggy Griffin
