Finance committee backs $14,995 bid to replace municipal building fire-escape doors
Summary
After inspecting deteriorated exterior fire-escape doors, staff recommended hiring a low bidder to replace three doors at an estimated cost of $14,995; the committee approved the capital improvement project.
The committee approved a capital improvement project to replace three exterior fire-escape doors at the municipal building on June 24, following staff and facilities input that the doors are in poor condition.
Staff said custodian Ken Watson provided photos showing damaged doors; the packet included three price estimates and the low responsible bid of $14,995 from All Deferred Glass (listed as lowest responsible bidder in the backup). The cost did not exceed competitive bidding thresholds that would trigger a formal sealed-bid process, and staff recommended awarding the work to the low bidder.
Committee members voted in favor of the replacement project. Staff said the work is capital in nature and intended to correct long-standing deterioration so the borough does not need repeated repairs.
The committee recorded no objections and approved the project to proceed to contracting.
