Council approves $295,000 renovation of police records room, including ballistic glass
Summary
The council authorized a contract to renovate the police records room and install ballistic-rated glass at the precinct entrance; a $100,000 state grant will offset the cost and work will be executed in phases, with glass installation taking about 12 weeks.
City staff presented a resolution authorizing a contract (approximately $295,000) to renovate the police records room and replace entry systems with ballistic-rated glass at the precinct—s east entrance. Staff said Jay Laid LLC was the lowest responsible bidder among seven firms and that Assemblyman Brown secured a $100,000 state grant to offset the cost.
Project staff described a phased approach: interior remediation (including a one-week asbestos abatement) followed by specialty glass work that could take about 12 weeks to arrive and install. Staff also said the design sets scaffolding back so glass can be installed without repeated major mobilizations. Council introduced and approved the resolution in the evening's block vote.
