Explanation
Background: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to enter into contract for the Facilities Management Division with Mid Ohio Air Conditioning Corp. to replace the boiler at Fire Station #10, 1096 West Broad Street. The previous unit was in disrepair and would have required approximately $10,000.00 worth of repairs. It was determined to be more cost efficient to spend slightly more to purchase a new boiler.
On October 13, 2006 a Mayor's Emergency was declared. It was determined it was immediately necessary to replace the boiler due to the colder temperatures. The replacement was bid through the City's Vendor Services webpage. Three companies bid in the following amounts: Mid Ohio Air Conditioning Corp. $14,350; General Temperature Control, Inc. (FBE) $17,120; and Axiom Mechanical Services $18,995.
Emergency action is requested in order to reimburse Mid Ohio Air Conditioning Corp. for costs incurred for the replacement of the boiler at Fire Station #10, 1096 West Broad Street.
Fiscal Impact: Funds are available within the Safety Voted Bond Fund. The total cost of this contract is $14,350.00. Mid Ohio Air Conditioning Corp. Contract Compliance Number 31-0732219, expiration 01/21/2008.
