DATE: FEBRUARY 81 1995 <br />TO: HONORABLE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />THRU: JAMES E. CHANDLER <br />COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR <br />FROM: H.T. "SONNY"DEAN, DIRECTOR - <br />DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: PRECISION CONTRACTING SERVICES <br />REQUEST FOR RETAINAGE RELEASE <br />BACKGROUND: <br />Precision Contracting Services (PCS) has completed the work in the <br />new courthouse under his contract, except for some programming this <br />is to be done by a subcontractor. PCS is requesting release of his <br />retainage, except for $5,500 to cover the programming work. The <br />installed work is under warranty. <br />RECOMMENDATIONS: <br />Staff recommends release of the $53,072.50 retainage. <br />Commissioner Eggert stated that she has been advised that the <br />$5,500 proposed to be held for programming would not be sufficient <br />to cover the remaining programming work as the hearing rooms have <br />not been completed and the Golden Gavel system in Courtrooms 6 and <br />7 is not complete. This is the system which allows children, for <br />example, to testify without being present in the courtroom. She <br />understood that the programming will not be ready until May or <br />June, 1995. <br />Administrator Chandler advised that he had received a copy of <br />a memorandum from the Clerk of the Court regarding the timing of <br />the remaining work but had spoken with Director Dean and was <br />advised that the funds were sufficient. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Eggert, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Adams, the Board unanimously approved <br />deferring this item for one week. <br />FEBRUARY 14, 1995 5 <br />
