"Approval of <br /> proposal for new computer system and <br /> applications software" pp. 5-7, 11/3/80) <br /> In response to question, City Manager Fales <br /> advised that the present computer was not <br /> funded in the usual equipment replacement mode <br /> because it was purchased with Revenue Sharing <br /> Funds, but that a similar purchase would <br /> probably be funded on a replacement basis now. <br /> Mr. Fales observed that the subject supple- <br /> mental report has been brought to Council at <br /> this time, because of the advice that the cost <br /> of the equipment recommended in the proposal <br /> will increase a minimum of five percent on <br /> December 1, and it was believed Council would <br /> wish to have the answers to questions raised <br /> at the November 3, 1980 meeting now in order <br /> him to reconsider the proposal before the price <br /> change occurs. <br /> Discussion followed and Mr. Fales, Director of <br /> Finance Ference and Assistant Director of <br /> Finance Becker commented and replied to ques- <br /> tions concerning use of the equipment replace- <br /> ment mode of funding; the fact that charges <br /> for use would be made to SBSA (South Bayside <br /> System Authority) and the Port as well as any <br /> other agencies; the reasons why lease purchase <br /> payment is economically desirable for the City; <br /> the requirement of Proposition 4 that enter- <br /> prise funds be operated independently and not <br /> out of property taxes; the backgrounds of the <br /> principals of CRMC (Computer Resources Manage- <br /> ment Corporation) to whom the proposal is <br /> recommended to be awarded; the lack of experi- <br /> ence of all similar firms; and CRMC's experi- <br /> ence and knowledge of municipal government. <br /> Discussion continued regarding the savings <br /> anticipated by use of the new computer through <br /> reduced need to handle data and to employ <br /> extra help; the proposed arrangements for <br /> servicing the equipment; a review of total <br /> costs; costs of the present system and its <br /> service contract; the fact that at the time <br /> the recommended proposal was contemplated, <br /> t rReg.Mtg. <br /> 11/24/80 <br /> Page 6 <br />
