Board approves $1.27 million modernization of three main‑courthouse elevators
Summary
The board approved a negotiated $1,274,447 contract with ICON Structures Inc. to modernize three traction elevators in the main courthouse; work will be staggered to maintain some elevator service while equipment is replaced.
The Board of Bids and Contracts approved a negotiated bid with ICON Structures Inc. for $1,274,447 to modernize three traction elevators in the Sedgwick County main courthouse.
Joe Thomas presented the project and said new machine-room equipment will be installed in the penthouse mezzanine above Floor 12; elevator cabs will remain but select interior finishes and controls will be updated. "To minimize disruption, the modernization will be staggered so that elevator service always remains available to building occupants," Thomas said. Project Services staff clarified that Elevator 5 (the center elevator) is currently down and that staging will result in up to two elevators out of service at times during work.
A committee member moved to accept the negotiated bid and the board approved the award by vote. The project will proceed in phases (Phase 1: Elevators 5 and 6; Phase 2: Elevator 4) to preserve access to courthouse functions during the modernization.
