Committee approves contract for electrical work and climate-controlled room for 9-1-1 equipment
Summary
Saratoga County’s Public Safety Committee authorized a contract with BNB Premier Contracting LLC to install new electrical service and construct a climate-controlled data room to secure 9-1-1 communications equipment at an existing tower site; the sheriff estimated $800,000–$1,000,000 in equipment would be installed.
The Saratoga County Public Safety Committee on Feb. 6 approved a resolution authorizing the chairman to execute an agreement with BNB Premier Contracting LLC of Hudson Falls, N.Y., to provide electrical service and build a climate-controlled data room for 9-1-1 communications equipment at a site described in the meeting as the Midrise Apartments tower.
Presenter Andre said the work will secure radio and communications equipment currently located at the Midrise site and described the project as part of a multimillion-dollar capital effort starting this year. During questioning, members asked whether the location would serve as a backup 9-1-1 center; presenters clarified the site is an existing communications/tower site that will be enhanced rather than a new dedicated backup center. The sheriff said the county expects to place "probably somewhere between 800 to $1,000,000 of equipment up there." The committee moved, seconded and carried the resolution by voice vote.
The transcript records the contractor name (BNB Premier Contracting LLC of Hudson Falls, N.Y.), the general scope (electrical service and climate-controlled room for 9-1-1 equipment), and an approximate equipment value. The meeting record does not include a detailed project budget or a roll-call vote.
