JAN 2 g <br />BOOK 7 <br />PAGE 712 <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Bowman, the Board unanimously approved <br />staff's recommendation and accepted the low bid of <br />$64,620 from Jim Wright Construction, Inc. for the <br />renovation of office space for the Utility Department. <br />AGREEMENT IS ON FILE IN THE OFFICE OF THE CLERK TO THE BOARD <br />Commissioner Bird felt that modular units will help signifi- <br />cantly to consolidate space in this building since we have <br />committed to using this building as the administrative offices of <br />the county for a longer time than was intended. <br />Director Pinto explained that compared to other ways, <br />modular units are Tess costly. <br />Commissioner Eggert asked about the temporary walls, and <br />Director Pinto explained that those walls are actually a part of <br />the modular units, but there are some remaining temporary walls <br />in that space. <br />UTILITY RELOCATION, FURNITURE AND WORK STATION ACQUISITION <br />Utilities Director Terry Pinto explained that this is for <br />approval of the actual modular units and furnishings, and wanted <br />permission to have our own Purchasing Department go ahead and <br />order the steelcase furniture at a maximum cost of $30,000, which <br />includes $16,000 of furnishings already purchased before the <br />architect became involved. <br />Commissioner Eggert was concerned about getting into <br />furnishings as she had yet to see a list of everything that is <br />going into these offices. She was very hesitant to move ahead on <br />this without knowing any of the details, and questioned the <br />modular walls again. <br />Director Pinto suggested that this matter be tabled until <br />next week's meeting when detailed information could be submitted. <br />54 <br />
