Commissioners approve backup AC for jail main control to protect sensitive equipment
Summary
The court approved a capital line-item transfer to install a backup air-conditioning unit for the jail's main control area, citing climate sensitivity of equipment and the need for redundancy to avoid operational failures.
County staff asked the court to approve a capital line-item transfer to install a backup air-conditioning unit for the jail's main control area, which houses climate-sensitive equipment. Staff said the existing single, stand-alone AC leaves the system vulnerable if it fails, and the backup unit is intended to prevent equipment loss or operational disruptions.
"This is a new install. It's a backup for the main control, AC system, which is a, climate sensitive area," a county official said. The court voted to approve the capital repair and authorized the transfer to fund the installation.
