Infrastructure - Field Operations
BUDGET HIGHLIGHTS
The FY 15-16 Budget is decreasing by $522,282, or 1.5%.
FY 15-16 will be the first full year that Field Operations has provided the Downtown Cleaning and
Maintenance program to maintain the Central Business District. The City took over responsibilities for this
service from Downtown Greensboro Incorporated (DGI) midway through FY 14-15. The budget for
Downtown Cleaning and Maintenance is $342,828 in FY 15-16 and Business Improvement District (BID) tax
funding will be used to support the service. The new program also results in the addition of 5.481 FTEs to the
Field Operations Department.
Due to increasing mowing responsibilities spread across the City, and in an effort to improve efficiency, Field
Operations is contracting out a portion of the mowing responsibilities, resulting in the elimination of 14
seasonal temporary positions (6.321 FTEs).
