Summary

After competitive bids, the board approved Prime Contracting's $57,381 low bid for a boiler replacement at the 104 Building at KI Sawyer; funding will be drawn from airport reserves with plans to replenish earmarked funds later.

County staff presented competitive bids for boiler replacement work at the 104 Building at KI Sawyer and recommended awarding the project to the low bidder. The board voted to approve Prime Contracting's bid of $57,381.

Staff said the building dates to 1958 with a 1991 addition and explained the older boilers failed for multiple reasons including burner failures and controls problems; four bids were received and the low bid was recommended. "Prime Contracting for $57,381, Johnson Controls for $59,995, JF Ahern for 76,390, and Valley Mechanical for $64,927," staff reported while recommending award to Prime Contracting. Commissioners authorized the contract and staff said the expenditure will be paid from airport reserves in the interim, with intent to replenish those reserves from earmarked funds later.
