This new Capital Project will establish a consistent funding source for equipment replacement needs across the County. With diverse building types and functions, there are multiple pieces of equipment that require varied replacement cycles. Establishing this project will allow the County to plan for these cycles, and ensure adequate funding is available when urgent needs arise.
The initial funding for this project is provided for identified needs in the Detention Center. Some of the kitchen equipment has reached the end of its life cycle and needs to be replaced to avoid downtime and future repair issues. Also, the personal property room has a conveyor system that has stopped functioning and needs to be replaced. Funding both items will allow conditions to remain safe for County staff, as well as persons who are detained. Funding is being requested now to ensure timely delivery, as well as adhere to existing price quotes. General Services, the Sheriff’s Office, and County Management have worked collaboratively to bring these needs forward.
Alignment with Strategic Plan: This request is in alignment with Focus Area Sustainable Infrastructure and Environment’s Initiative SI 1b (Assess utilization and maintenance needs of current County facilities, equipment, and vehicles
