Explanation
BACKGROUND: This ordinance requests authorization for the Finance and Management Director to modify a contract with Mid Ohio Air Conditioning Corporation in the amount of $26,500.00 in order to complete a necessary air conditioning renovation at the Central Safety building. The renovation will replace the existing Drycooler unit on the ninth floor. The current unit is nearly inoperable. This unit is a necessary backup for air conditioning units that cool the Automated Fingerprinting Identification System (AFIS).
The contract with Mid Ohio Air Conditioning Corporation was formally bid by the Facilities Management Division. The contract is in the fourth year of four renewals.
Emergency action is requested so that an appropriate backup for cooling the Automated Fingerprinting Identification System exists, thereby reducing the likelihood of losing an important computer system and its contents.
Fiscal Impact: This ordinance authorizes an expenditure of $26,500 in the Safety Voted Bond fund for the renovation of the air conditioning system in the Central Safety Building. The Police Division budgeted $20,000 in the Safety Voted Bond Fund for this renovation.
