Juvenile detention center fire-alarm work approved with $7,258 overrun
Summary
County approved paying a $7,258 cost overrun for emergency fire-alarm work at the juvenile detention center; staff said additional duct detectors delayed billing and insurance may offset some expenses.
Erica Jones of the juvenile detention center told commissioners that emergency fire-alarm work performed by Blake Roberts required extra duct detectors and produced an overrun of $7,258. "We had received emergency approval for, using Blake Roberts for our fire alarm... the additional amount we need is $7,258," she said, adding that the detector installation caused the delay in billing.
Commissioners moved to approve the overrun and the motion passed by voice vote. Jones said insurance is expected to cover some of the cost; the commission directed staff to proceed with payment and reconcile insurance reimbursements as available.
