AGENDA ITEM: Bid Awazd for Fire Department Bay Doors
DATE: March 13, 2006
!u~'-
SUBMITTED BY: David E. Thompson, Chief of Police/DPS
BACKGROUND:
The doors to the fire bays have been deteriorating for a number of yeazs. The panels in
the doors aze standard glass (not safety glass), which makes them very heavy and very
hazardous in the event that they aze broken. There have been several incidents in the past
when the glass panels have shattered, and blown glass fragments all over the fire bays.
Last yeaz, one of the cables to one of the doors broke, and the door crashed to the ground.
Broken glass covered everything in the fire bay azea. The City had the doors evaluated,
and the recommendation from the professional door companies was to replace the doors.
The doors are approximately 18-19 years old, and the mechanical systems are wearing
out. The doors aze very heavy, and they create a significant hazard for the people
working around them.
Staff Members (Administrative Assistant Laurie Scott) established specifications after
receiving input from fire and police officials. The new doors will be similaz in
appeazance to the existing doors, but they will contain cleaz Lexan panels which aze
lighter and safer than standard glass.
The specifications were advertised, and the low bidder was Vigneaux. This company
currently has contracts with Jacksonville Fire and Rescue, and the references indicated
that they do an adequate j ob.
BUDGET: $35,000 was allocated in the 2005-06 budget for this expense.
RECOMMENDATIONS: To award the bid for the replacement of the Fire Bay doors
to Vigneau in that amount of $21,105.00.
