Explanation

BACKGROUND: This legislation authorizes the Finance and Management Director to enter into a contract on behalf of the Office of Construction Management with General Temperature Control, Inc. for the renovation of the energy efficient heating ventilating and air conditioning for the Central Police Headquarters Building, 120 Marconi Boulevard.

The domestic water boosting station supplying potable water to the building is failing and replacement parts are obsolete.

General Temperature Control Inc. $1,780,000.00

TP Mechanical $2,122,800.00
