Revenues from this fund are generated by the ticket surcharge and the fund is used exclusively for capital improvements such as renovation, remodeling, and specifically here, equipment to improve the facilities. The improvements for which the Morris Performing Arts Center desires appropriation consist of the following: $38,500.00 Dumpster/Compactor. Construction of an outside area (at the rear of the facility) with electrical service is needed to enclose a leased compactor for the disposal of refuse from the Morris Performing Arts Center complex. $17,000.00 Security. Security devices need to be added to the exterior building doors. Cameras and additional security equipment also need to be added to the interior of the building, particularly in the interstitial. $16,700.00 Awning/Canopy. Canopies are needed to complete work on the facade at the Morris Box Office entrance and for the Colfax side of the building in conjunction with the Palais Royale grand entrance. $6,000.00 Telephone System. Computer cards for the telephone system are needed to update functions of the system such as the Box Office Information Service lines and to connect the phones in the Palais to the Morris' telephone mainframe.
