Courthouse flooring options discussed; staff to include mobilization and removal in bids
Summary
Commissioners discussed tile choices (24x24 and carpet tiles), mobilization and furniture moving needs, and the potential to reuse pulled carpet tiles through a Grand Junction vendor; staff will include mobilization and removal in solicitation specifications.
Commissioners and staff reviewed practical details for a courthouse flooring replacement, focusing on tile size, installation logistics, relocation of furniture, and the potential to recycle removed carpet tiles. One commissioner noted bidders should list mobilization and furniture moving in their price proposals because the current tile quantities "don't include mobilization of the furniture" and the task would likely be too much for existing staff alone.
The board discussed using replaceable 24x24 carpet tiles and highlighted a Grand Junction company that dismantles, cleans and resells usable tiles, which could reduce disposal costs and recover reusable material. Staff agreed to include mobilization, furniture moving and removal/recycling options in the solicitation and to return with vendor estimates.
