provide questions and any potential recommendations

Objective You will have 10 minutes to review this hypothetical case, You will then be asked to provide a set of questions for the DOT to help you obtain the necessary information to make an informed recommendation; you are not expected to make a recommendation at this time. There is no limit to the number or type of questions you may ask. Any potential errors should also be brought to the attention of DOT. We are equally interested in the questions themselves and your thought process behind the questions. For each question, please be prepared to explain why you think this information is relevant/important to your analysis. Glossary - CY: Calendar Year (January 1 to December 31) - FY: Fiscal Year (July 1 to June 30) - OTPS: Other Than Personal Services; supplies, contracts, and materials costs - PS: Personal Services; in-house staffing/labor costs - NOL: Notice of Liability - Capital: Assets that are financed through bonds; must cost at least $50,000 and have a useful life of at least 5 years. Case Study In June 2022, New York State passed legislation allowing speed cameras to operate 24/7, a change from the previous operating hours of 6AM to 10 PM on weekdays. This law will be effective January 1, 2023. Speed camera violations are issued to the owner of a vehicle traveling over the speed limit in a school zone. These violations, known as Notices of Liability (NOLs). are issued by the 200 Clerical Associates who currently work at DOT. These 200 Clerical Associates are assisted by 20 Office Machine Aldes and supervised by 10 Principal Administrative Associates. These staff members are also responsible for issuing NOLs for Red Light Camera violations and Bus Lane Camera violations. It is expected that the expansion of the speed camera hours will increase the number of issued NOLs by 30%. To accommodate the increase in hours of operation, DOT has requested funds and new staffing to process the additional violations and expand the number of cameras to all school zones in the City. DOT has requested to purchase two trucks via the capital budget to install the additional speed cameras. The agency has also highlighted needs for various other materials and equipment, like office supplies for their new staff and postage machines to assemble the NOLs into envelopes in order to be issued to offenders. DOT will use a $1,000,000 grant from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) to help offset the costs of this expansion. The grant money can be spent from July 1,2023 to June 30,2025 . DOT provided two tables detailing their funding and staffing needs for this program expansion. (See back page) Table 2.
