I see two basic options for the additional funding required. The first is to appropriate undesignated fund balances from the General Fund and the Utility Fund; a pay-as-you-go approach. The second option is a lease/purchase; a pay-as-you-use approach. Lease/purchase financing is available for three years at 5. 5% interest from Government Capital Corporation (see attached proposal ) . Also, IBM has lease/purchase financing available at 5 .58% for IBM hardware, 6. 16% for IBM software and 6. 48% for non- IBM items . I spoke with Bob Stephens of Lairson Stephens Reimer, P.C. , the City's auditors . Considering the proposed 5 .5% interest rate, the 3 .5% interest the City is earning on investments and prospects for major capital projects in the near future, his recommendation was to go the lease/purchase route. Staff recommends that the City Council approve Resolution R94-10, authorizing a lease-purchase agreement to finance a computer system, in an amount not to exceed $275,000.
