Commission authorizes fire-station roll-up door replacement, not to exceed $5,000

Fire Chief Christie (speaker 9) reported that one bay roll-up door at the fire station was damaged and not repairable following an operational event. Staff presented three vendor quotes ranging from about $4,000 to $12,000. The commission discussed dimensions, models and warranties and directed funding from the Better Place Plan for public-building improvements.

The commission authorized the city manager to proceed with replacement not to exceed $5,000. "We recommend replacing the door," the fire chief said, noting the vendor that inspected the door advised replacement. Staff will return procurement paperwork and invoice details to the commission and document the expenditure against the Better Place Plan fund.
