Board outlines epoxy-floor specifications for animal-control facility RFPs
Summary
Commissioners directed staff to require proposed material specifications (including epoxy flooring) in RFPs for the animal-control facility to meet sanitation and state requirements, and to allow contractors to measure square footage in person.
The board discussed required flooring materials for the animal-control facility and asked that RFP language include proposed material specifications and allow contractors to measure square footage onsite.
Staff explained the state requires nonporous, sanitizable flooring and recommended epoxy surfaces: "The language on the RFP that's in the pack is to include proposed material specifications," a staff member said. Members emphasized that the RFP should list acceptable materials and ask contractors to confirm square footage in person so bidders account for drains and other site specifics.
The board also discussed the importance of meeting state sanitation standards so that the surface "can't absorb anything" and can be properly sanitized, and directed staff to include clear material requirements in the RFP package.
