J. Baird <br />Director'of Budget and Management <br />The attorney's office is requesting permission from the Honorable <br />Board of County Commissioners to purchase two IBM word processors <br />and one printer, the total cost being $11,400.00. <br />At the present time, the attorney's office has two Lanier word <br />processors. These word processors are the only ones of this type <br />in the County Administration Building making it incompatible with <br />other offices. One of the Laniers is 6-7 years old and is beginning <br />to experience maintenance problems. In addition to these drawbacks, <br />the attorney's staff feels that the Lanier is inferior to the IBM <br />word processor. <br />If the Board of County Commissioners approve the purchase of <br />the IBM word processor, the attorney's office would like to sell <br />the old Lanier and keep the newer Lanier to phase the legal <br />documents onto the IBM. <br />The funding for the purchase of the IBM word processor and <br />printer would be from General Fund contingencies. <br />AMOUNT REMAINING IN CONTINGENCIES <br />001-199-581-99.92 <br />BEGINNING BALANCE $375,000.00 <br />ADJUSTMENTS MADE TO DATE [98,656.00] <br />ESTIMATED ADJUSTMENT FOR <br />2001 BUILDING [32,000.00] <br />ESTIMATED CONTINGENCY BALANCE <br />AS OF 1/15/86 $244,344.00 <br />BUDGET AMENDMENT Increase Decrease <br />001-102-514-66.41 Office furniture & equipment $11,400. <br />001-199-513-99.92 Reserve for contingency $11,400. <br />Commissioner Bird felt that while the Legal Dept.'s Laniers <br />needed to be replaced and the IBMs would be advantageous, he <br />wondered if it was necessary to provide these midway through the <br />budget year. <br />16 <br />
