Explanation
Background: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to enter into contract with Kone, Inc. for the Facilities Management Division to renovate water damaged elevators at the Municipal Court building, 375 South High Street. On February 6, 2007, the sprinkler system at the building broke, flooding portions of the building. On February 7, 2007, the Mayor declared an emergency authorizing $75,000 in funding to repair the damage at the Municipal Court building and the Central Safety building. On March 6, 2007, the Mayor revised this amount to $90,000.00. Kone, Inc. was chosen to perform this work because it is the Facilities Management Divsion's contractor for normal elevator maintenance. The work completed was on four elevators. The water damage necessitated the replacement of the main car panel boards, car communication boards, car button boards, telephones, and door detectors. Work was also required to dissipate moisture and then re-lubricate various components of the elevator systems.
Emergency action is requested in order to reimburse Kone, Inc. for costs incurred for the renovation of the water damaged elevators at the Municipal Court building, 375 South High Street.
Kone, Inc. Contract Compliance Number 36-2357423, expiration date 07/13/2008.
Fiscal Impact: The Facilities Management Division submitted an expansion request in the 2007 budget that was funded for the Municipal Court building in the amount of $200,000.00. These repairs are funded from this expansion request.
