That report TR-99-87 be received; and 2. That staff be authorized to establish a Technical Services Reserve Account - Planning Department; and 3. That the Treasurer be directed to transfer $80,000.00 from the Consulting Services account (7702-X-0247) in the Planning Department to the Technical Services Reserve Account; and 4. That the attached by-law be forwarded to Council for approval. BACKGROUND & COMMENTS: The establishment of a technical services reserve account would allow for the transfer of funds in subsequent current budgets in respect of equipment purchases and consulting services. This would enable the Planning Department to deal with equipment replacement and unallocated consulting services on an ongoing basis. This would be particularly useful where Council resolves to take action on Planning related issues for which budget allocations have not been made and for which consulting services will be required.
