Properties Committee approves three-year elevator maintenance agreements to reduce costs
Summary
The committee authorized Building & Grounds to contract with MEI Total Elevator Solutions for three-year maintenance agreements for the County Complex, Old Courthouse, Health Department and Central Dispatch, citing cost savings from longer-term contracts and authorizing the chair or vice chair to sign the agreements.
Building & Grounds/Parks Director JT Anderson recommended moving to a longer-term, three-year maintenance agreement for the county's elevators to realize cost savings compared with annual contracts. Committee members discussed anticipated service call coverage and requested services under a three-year arrangement.
Commissioner Ian Kempf moved, and Commissioner Kevin Knisely supported, a recommendation to the Full Board to authorize Building & Grounds/Parks to proceed with MEI Total Elevator Solutions for three-year maintenance agreements at specified annual costs: County Complex $14,995.00, Old Courthouse $645.00, Health Department $2,755.00, and Central Dispatch $2,098.00; and to authorize the chair or vice chair to sign the agreements. The motion carried at the committee level.
The committee characterized the longer agreement as a cost-saving measure compared with prior annual contracts; the contracts will be paid from the listed departmental accounts.
