Home My WebLink About03/10/2017AT OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER March 10, 2017 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Alan Tandy, City Manager SUBJECT: General Information Notable Items  When the sales tax began to drop due to the oil economy, we cut new capital requests and cancelled a number of items that already had budget approval. We have noted from time to time that such actions are a short term strategy that cannot be sustained long-term. The City simply owns too many capital assets that wear out with time and require replacement. Manufactures of highly technical assets often stop producing replacement parts for technologies that have evolved. When that occurs, the City can buy on eBay for a while, but that too has a limited life. The bottom line is that despite the difficult time we are in due to the oil economy, we are going to be forced by circumstances beyond our control to budget for and deal with some high cost capital outlay needs in the months ahead.  This morning, the Bakersfield Police Department held its Promotional Ceremony to recognize advancements from both sworn and non-sworn positions that have occurred over the past two years. Also recognized at the event were the recipients of the 2016 Annual Awards that included: o Civilian Employee of the Year – Kim Stanifer o Dispatcher of the Year – Fernando Hurtado o Officer of the Year – Charles Pratt o Detective of the Year – Paul Yoon We are grateful for the Police Department and congratulate those staff members who have received awards and promotions!
