AGENDA STATEMENT
Item No. *02 c
For Meeting of: September 5, 2000
ITEM TITLE: Consideration of Legislation Authorizing and Appropriating funds for Emergency
Purchase of the Police Station / Legal Center Air Cooling System.
SUBMITTED BY: Police Department, Legal Department, Finance Department
CONTACT PERSON/TELEPHONE: Chief Blesio, 575 -6211
Lt. M. Light, 576 -6549
SUMMARY EXPLANATION: The City of Yakima Police Station / Legal Center experienced a
critical mechanical breakdown within the existing HVAC system when an essential compressor
within the chiller failed. Proper climate controls for efficient and safe operations of the facility
are essential. All employees and visitors with the facility are impacted, with the greatest
concern being in the public access areas of the Municipal Court and in the secure areas of the
Jail. This failed compressor cannot be repaired and replacement is required. If replaced,
• there will be no warranty offered or implied on the replacement compressor and any future
failures with associated repair costs will be the burden of the City. Additionally, this will be the
second compressor installed in this Chiller since it was new, 5 '/Z years ago. The other
replacement compressor and the rebuilding of original equipment compressors were covered
by warranty. This Chiller unit has a history of frequent failures and high maintenance. It does
not adequately perform to the required needs of the facility and is not reliable. Replacement of
the entire HVAC chiller unit is recommended.
The attached Resolution authorizes an emergency purchase of a new chiller and waives the
bid requirement. The attached Ordinance establishes an appropriation in the Law and Justice
Capital Fund of $125,000 for this purchase.
