2 <br /> cooking, HVAC, and gas equipment. The present control boards lack the capability to effectively <br /> shut down the newly installed HVAC equipment. The existing shunt-trip breaker required to shut <br /> off power to the kitchen equipment has failed. It remains in the tripped position due to the internal <br /> mechanism and needs to be replaced. To achieve seamless compliance, the County needs to <br /> facilitate the replacement of the control panels and the change-out of one shunt-trip breaker. This <br /> upgrade will ensure the equipment can be deactivated safely and efficiently in compliance with <br /> applicable regulations. <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: The Construction Contract Change Amendment to complete the HVAC <br /> replacement at the Piedmont Food Processing Center will increase the currently approved <br /> contract from $375,000 to $412,055. This is an increase of $37,055. Funds will be reallocated <br /> with the County Economic Development Fund to cover the increased cost. <br /> ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLAN: This item supports: <br /> • GOAL 1: ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECT 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 /> RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board: <br /> 1) Approve the County issuing a construction change amendment with Brady Services, Inc. <br /> for the replacement of the existing kitchen exhaust hood control panels at the Piedmont <br /> Food Processing Center; and <br /> 2) Authorize the County Manager to execute the change, subject to final review by the County <br /> Attorney, and any subsequent amendments for contingent and unforeseen requirements <br /> up to the approved budget amount on behalf of the Board. <br />
