Board discusses hooking courthouse generator to jail after report the unit has ample capacity
Summary
Commissioners discussed an electrical RFP to connect the courthouse generator to the jail; one commissioner said the generator has ample capacity to run both buildings and questioned replacing existing equipment.
The board reviewed an electrical request for proposals to connect the courthouse generator to the jail. A commissioner (S2) said contractors reported to staff that "the generator has ample capacity to run both buildings," and asked why the county would replace functioning components rather than reconfigure the existing system.
Chair and commissioners agreed to advance the item for further processing; staff were asked to verify capacity and next steps. No final contract action was recorded in the transcript at this meeting.
