Summary

The commission authorized reimbursement of up to $6,844.62 from the bond operating reserve repair contingency account to cover a boiler replacement at the San Luis Regional Detention and Support Center; staff said two quotes were obtained and the chosen quote was slightly higher but avoided additional fittings and costs.

The San Luis Regional Detention and Support Center Commission approved reimbursing the City of San Luis up to $6,844.62 from the bond operating reserve repair contingency account to cover a boiler replacement at the detention center.

General Counsel Kaye McQuil told commissioners that in October LaSalle Corrections had to replace a leaking boiler and that staff delayed bringing the matter to the board until it could be paired with another item. McQuil said the contractor provided two quotes but that the lower quote would have required additional fittings and likely would have been more expensive overall; staff preferred the slightly higher quote from Ferguson and asked reimbursement of $6,844.62.

The reimbursement motion—moved and seconded—was approved; commissioners recorded vocal ayes and no nays were noted on the transcript. LaSalle Corrections representatives, including the facility warden and assistant warden, were in attendance for questions but did not provide additional details beyond confirming the replacement and cost.

The board did not specify a timeline for reimbursement processing or which department will administer the payment. The motion records an amount not to exceed $6,844.62 and identifies the bond operating reserve repair contingency account as the funding source.
