All City departments require electrical services at times for the purposes of rewiring and relamping, installation of outlets, and general electrical maintenance. Occasionally, critical electrical failures require an immediate response to maintain safety or vital operations. The contracts for electrical service provide for maintenance, emergency services and identified projects requiring electrical services. Upcoming electrical service projects include upgrades to both the Police Department's security camera system and the computer center in the amounts of $99,000 and $88,000 respectively. The installation of additional security cameras will increase monitoring capabilities of the outside of the police facility and to more areas of the holding facility. The service needed for the computer center includes an upgrade in power capabilities and connection to the existing emergency generator. On June 5, 2006, the City Council awarded a contact to Williams & Maher, Inc. for a two-year period with provision for three, one-year renewals. The vendor has performed satisfactorily during the past contract period and has agreed to renew the contract without an increase in pricing. Staff recommends the first renewal of the contract. 221-1
