She <br /> 6 said there was also an upgrade for the Justice Center in the future, which does not seem to be <br /> 7 necessary given discussions about other Justice Center improvements. <br /> 8 Travis Myren said that any upgrades would be timed with other projects. <br /> 9 Chair Bedford said there is $1.1 million in year six for a full electrical redo at the West <br /> 10 Campus and for the Passmore Center in year seven. She asked what a full electrical redo <br /> 11 includes. <br /> 12 Angel Barnes said a full electrical redo looks at lighting fixtures, breaker panels, <br /> 13 transformers, and automatic or manual switches. She said equipment wears out over time and <br /> 14 this would look at anything from the transformer over. <br /> 15 Chair Bedford said it is like a schedule for replacing roofs. She asked why that is not <br /> 16 needed for residential. <br /> 17 Angel Barnes said it is recommended for commercial buildings. <br /> 18 Commissioner McKee asked if it is recommended maintenance. <br /> 19 Angel Barnes said yes. <br /> 20 Commissioner McKee asked if it is recommended from a safety perspective or safety <br /> 21 audit. <br /> 22 Angel Barnes said not from a safety audit. <br /> 23 Commissioner McKee asked if they moved it back and verified that there are no safety <br /> 24 issues if there is a requirement to hold to the recommendation. He said he did not believe it <br /> 25 would be necessary. <br /> 26 Chair Bedford said they pay about $55,000 every year for the inspection of roofs and <br /> 27 asked if it is possible that they can adjust and get the electric inspected. <br /> 28 Alan Dorman said if it were a safety issue they would have a different approach but that <br /> 29 it is not at this time. <br />
