Currently there are 61 computer CPU' s and 25 monitors that are no longer of use to the City that could be donated to the United Way of Elgin. MIS staff estimates that the residual value of the equipment is less than $1, 000 total . Formal action by the City Council identifying the specific equipment as surplus is necessary. COMMUNITY GROUPS/INTERESTED PERSONS CONTACTED United Way of Elgin representatives . MIS Committee . FINANCIAL IMPACT (71f,A,..

Parker City Manager • ri nited way The Way We Care. Community by Community. June 5, 2000 Ms Joyce Parker City Manager City of Elgin 150 Dexter Court Elgin, IL 60120 Dear Joyce: United Way of Elgin and our thirty partner agencies are involved a year-long effort to upgrade our technology capability through a "Community Communications Program". We believe that improving our partner agency's technology will improve their productivity and ultimately reduce operating expenses. Thanks to the efforts of Senator Steve Rauschenberger and Representative Doug Hoeft, the State of Illinois has been asked to provide funding to improve Internet communications access, e-mail, etc for United Way and its partners agencies. This new initiative is a wonderful partnership between the State of Illinois, our Governing Board and partner agencies and First USA, utilizing funding and professional expertise to change the technological landscape at our not-for-profit partner agencies. It is our understanding that the City of Elgin has approximately 65 personal computers, which were replaced by newer models earlier this year. If these machines are available for re-use, we would be most interested in expanding our partnership to include the City of Elgin through the donation of these computers, distributing them to our agencies. These machines would greatly improve enhance office productivity within the agencies. Thank you for your consideration of this request. Sincerely, Unit Way of Elgin _ Lai C .
