Nassau County approves $299,960 HVAC replacement and a five‑year maintenance contract capped at $900,000

Summary
The Board approved contract CM4061 to replace air‑handler units at the county detention center for $299,960 and a five‑year, not‑to‑exceed contract (CM4088) with POD LLC for caulking, pressure washing and painting services capped at $900,000.
The Nassau County Board of County Commissioners on Feb. 9 approved two county contracts aimed at maintaining county facilities.
The board voted to authorize the chair to sign contract CM4061 with Brooks Building Solutions Inc. for the installation of new air‑handler units in Units 12–14 at the Nassau County Detention Center in the amount of $299,960. Assistant County Manager Allen told the board the county cycles HVAC units over multiple years to keep the detention facility properly maintained.
Separately, commissioners approved CM4088, a not‑to‑exceed contract with POD LLC to provide caulking, pressure washing, painting and sealant services on an as‑needed basis for up to five years. The county manager explained the contract is capped at $900,000 over the five‑year term and allows staff to call for services as budgeted throughout the year.
Both measures were moved from the consent agenda to new business because of their price tags, then approved by the board on voice votes.
Why it matters: The HVAC work addresses public‑safety‑adjacent infrastructure in a detention facility; the standing maintenance contract is intended to give staff a preapproved vendor for routine building upkeep as budget funds become available.
