Suggested Action:

recommendation

I move the Mayor and Council authorize the City Administrator to enter into an agreement with Kencor, LLC for the modernization of the elevator in the City Municipal Building at 4310 Gallatin Street, pending legal review. An encumbrance not to exceed $204,000 is authorized to be funded using American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds. The Treasurer is authorized to make the budget amendments necessary to encumber these funds.

end

 

Summary Background:

In 2023 the Council approved the use of ARPA funds for renovations at the City Administration Building. One of the critical elements needing work is the elevator. The current elevator is over 40 years old and is in need of modernization of many of the controls and systems that ensure safe operation. In addition, lighting, the cab interior, doors, and safety elements will be added or refreshed. Completion of this modernization is required to ensure that the elevator continues to meet the licensing requirement and provide safe operation for another 40 years.

 

Next Steps:

Negotiate and complete the contract and schedule work.

 

Fiscal Impact:

NTE $204,000 ARPA funds
