V.B. <br />Information <br />Meeting Date: November 14, 2011 XX Action Item <br />Consent Agenda <br />SUBJECT Approve Contract Amendment with Moseley Architects for Design of <br />a New Security Control Center and Natural Lighting Project for the Lee County Jail. <br />DEPARTMENT <br />CONTACT PERSON <br />Administration /Sheriff /Jail <br />John Crumpton <br />REQUEST Staff is seeking approval from the Board of Commissioners to <br />amend our current contract with Moseley Architects for design of a new security control center <br />and natural lighting project for the Lee County Jail. The contract will include design, bidding and <br />construction administration. <br />SUMMARY As was committed to the Sheriff during the budget process, the <br />County would review the security control center and need to replace the existing system as part of <br />the Basement Renovations at the Courthouse. The original estimate for the project was <br />$250,000. Moseley Architects originally submitted a proposal of $39,000 for this work and the <br />rebid and construction administration for the natural lighting project. After discussions with <br />Moseley and by combining these projects with the bid for the basement renovations, they agreed <br />to lower their cost to $28,000. The security control center is original to the Jail making the system <br />20 years old. Jail staff is currently having operational issues with the system. Due to the age of <br />the system we are having difficulty finding replacement parts and the current vendor has <br />recommended replacement. Due to Jail construction standards an architect/engineer has to be <br />involved with the placement of the new system. <br />BUDGET IMPACT $28,000 <br />ATTACHMENT(S) Contract Addendum for Architectural services <br />PUBLIC HEARING No <br />PRIOR BOARD ACTION At the June 20 meeting Commissioners voted to proceed with the <br />full project design at the Courthouse with Moseley Architects. <br />RECOMMENDATION: Approve Contract Addendum with Moseley Architects as presented. <br />
