RECOMMENDED ACTION
Direct the City Attorney to prepare and authorize the City Manager and the
Clerk of the Council to execute an agreement with Pyrocomm, Inc. for the
installation of a fire notification system at the Ross Annex for an amount
not to exceed $89,875.
DISCUSSION
The Ross Annex Building is equipped with a silent fire alarm system. In
case of a fire, the system electronically notifies a remote third party
provider that in turn calls the Fire Department to dispatch personnel to
the Ross Annex. It is recommended that a building audio-visual alarm,
connected to the existing fire alarm system, be added in order to enhance
notification of employees and patrons. Pyrocomm Inc., who installed the
existing fire alarm system, is the sole source provider of the audio-visual
equipment that can interface with the existing fire alarm system.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds are available in the Non-Departmental Other Contractual Services
account (account no. 11-012-6291).
