Approve Resolution No. _27t.o I' appropriating funds for the purchase and
installation of a water payment drop box in the City Hall Parking Lot.
ITEM EXPLANATION
For some time the Finance Department has been receiving requests from citizens
and council members for the installation of a drop box for water payments in the
City Hall Parking Lot. After months of searching for a "mail box" and finding
little or no availability of this type of commodity, 0 staff has located a post
office type mailbox which may be purchased for about $230 plus shipping costs.
The staff is proposing to install the payment drop box at location 1 or 2 as
shown on the attached map of the City Hall Parking Lot. The Council may wish to
provi~e staff with their preference for location.
The drop box (shown in attached drawing) would be white with a blue and yellow
accent strip and would have the City Seal on three sides.
The total cost to the City will be as follows:
Purchase of drop box
( including tax)
Shipping
Painting

FISCAL IMPACT
$230.00
100.00

100.00
$530.00
There are no funds budgeted for this acquisition. If Council desires to
proceed, the attached resolution will appropriate $530 from the Water Department
unappropriated reserve to fund the project. The installation of a drop box will
have very little impact on the City's cash flow, however., the additional service
to the citizens and ~Jood will generated by this action should well exceed the
cost of the project.
