Agenda Item 19

19. NOTICE INVITING BIDS: POLICE DEPARTMENT SERVER ROOM HVAC UPGRADE\n– F2M23-51, N2M23-60\nThe existing cooling unit servicing the Alhambra Police Department server room is tied\ninto the existing chiller. This unit does not run independently and has malfunctioned due\nto various issues. When the unit malfunctions, it causes the servers to lose power and\nvital technology services are lost. The City has secured a consultant to assess the\nstructural feasibility of installing two additional units which enables the server room to\nfunction independently of the building chiller. The assessment confirmed structural\nfeasibility of the proposed units and the City is moving forward with the equipment\nanchorage and support design. Specifications have been prepared and will be included in\nthe advertised Notice Inviting Bids.\nRecommended Action: City Council approve the distribution of a Notice Inviting Bids\nto qualified contractors for the Police Department Server Room HVAC Upgrade with bids\ndue no later than 10:30 a.m. on June 15, 2023, and opened at 11:00 a.m. that same day.
