Explanation

BACKGROUND: This ordinance authorizes the Public Service Director to enter into contract for the Facilities Management Division with Carrier Commercial Service in the amount of $48,718.00 for the replacement of an air conditioning chiller at
Fire Station #1, 300 North Fourth Street. The current chiller is running at less than half of full capacity. The evaporator tubes are crushed on one of the circuits and another is running at two-thirds capacity. The contractor has sixty days upon notification of the award of the contract to complete the project. The chiller will include a one-year workmanship and material guarantee and a five-year warranty on all compressors.

Formal proposals were solicited on February 26, 2004, and opened on May 4, 2004. Eight firms submitted a proposal. (0 MBE, 1 FBE*).

Carrier Commercial Service $48,718.00
Air Force One $49,470.00
Axiom Mechanical Services $52,150.00

The Facilities Management Division recommends a contract award to the most responsive and responsible bidder, Carrier Commercial Service in the amount of $48,718.00.

This ordinance also authorizes the transfer, appropriation, and expenditure of $48,718.00 from the Special Income Tax Fund to pay for this project. The Special Income Tax transfer and appropriation is a temporary measure until the City sells notes or bonds for this project.

Emergency action is requested so that the chiller will be replaced before complete failure of the current chiller.
