Oklahoma County Infrastructure Board · July 21, 2026

Summary

Oklahoma County staff presented a KONE modernization bid to repair or replace up to three elevators at the County Detention Center with a proposal priced about $2.9 million; staff warned the full cost could be higher once code, electrical and architectural work are included.

The chair opened discussion of repairs and possible replacement of up to three elevators at the County Detention Center after the board introduced a KONE modernization proposal of roughly $2.9 million.

"They submitted to us June 1, which is the $2,910,000 for modernization of all 3 of those elevators," said Tim Kimrey, who introduced the background and prior estimates. Donald Brassy, maintenance director with the county jail, told the board KONE resubmitted a bid that rose to $2,900,000 and that the proposal is valid for 30 days and sets installation to begin in 2027 if approved.
