2 <br /> • Glenwood Elementary School <br /> • Carrboro High School <br /> • Phoenix Academy <br /> • Hillsborough Elementary School <br /> • Central Elementary School <br /> • Rashkis Elementary School <br /> Procurement is through the North Carolina State Contract#22437-725G and NC DIT has provided <br /> written approval as per the contract requirements. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: The County will be responsible for the initial purchase and installation for <br /> each school, originally estimated to be around $3 million total. Funding for Phase 1 of this project <br /> was approved in the FY 2023-2024 CIP, and the Board awarded a contract on January 16, 2024 <br /> for $1,344,673.74 ($191,326.26 under budget). <br /> Funding for this final phase was approved in the FY 2024-2025 CIP and was budgeted at <br /> $1,536,000. This proposal for equipment purchases and installation is $1,264,317.07 <br /> ($271,682.93 under budget). <br /> This brings the total project cost for Phase 1 and Phase 2 to $2,608,990.81 ($463,009.19 under <br /> budget). The resulting cost savings and $31,291 from prior year funding is proposed for <br /> reallocation to the Fire and Emergency Medical Services paging infrastructure replacement <br /> (Agenda Item 8-f on this November 19, 2024 meeting agenda). <br /> Once installed, each district will become responsible for the annual maintenance/replacement of <br /> the systems, estimated to be approximately $48,000 annually per district. The County's <br /> Emergency Services Department will manage the procurement and installation phases. <br /> ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLAN: This item supports: <br /> • GOAL 1: ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AND CLIMATE ACTION <br /> OBJECTIVE 2. Invest in our infrastructure to reduce the environmental impact of the <br /> County fleet/facilities and improve safety. <br /> • GOAL 2: HEALTHY COMMUNITY <br /> OBJECTIVE 6.
