Drexel Heights board authorizes HVAC maintenance agreement with Tolin Mechanical
Summary
The board authorized the Fire Chief to execute an HVAC maintenance agreement with Tolin Mechanical; staff clarified the agreement allows subcontracting for specialist work and that not all HVAC units are the same brand.
The Drexel Heights Fire District Governing Board authorized Fire Chief Douglas Chappell to execute an agreement with Tolin Mechanical for HVAC maintenance at district facilities.
During discussion Board Member Laura Dailey asked whether the contract language permits subcontracting. Chief Chappell replied, "Tolin may need to hire specialists and this allows them to," and added that the district’s HVAC units are not all the same brand, so specialist work may be necessary in some cases. Board Chair Gary Bynum moved to authorize the chief to execute the agreement; Board Member Doug Fink seconded and the motion was approved 5-0.
The authorization allows the chief to finalize the maintenance contract and provides flexibility for Tolin Mechanical to secure specialist trades if required. The board did not record any contingency or amendment to the agreement during the meeting.
