FILE NUMBER
Authorize a one -time purchase and payment to KONE, Inc. for rebuilding the failed hoist motor in
freight elevator number 4H in the Police Department Detention Facility in an amount not to
exceed $44,000.00, subject to non - substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City
Attorney.
DISCUSSION
On May 20, 2015, KONE, Inc., the original equipment manufacturer of the Jail freight service
elevator 4H, completed the manufacture and installation of a new circuit board driver on the
elevator. During the installation of the new circuit board driver it was discovered that the hoist
motor is in need of repair /rebuilding due to an internal wiring malfunction. This condition was not
detectable with a non - operable circuit board driver. Jail elevator 4H is the only freight service
elevator in the Jail with roof access. The inoperable service elevator has precluded Building
Maintenance staff and contractors from completing necessary repairs as they are unable to
transport heavy equipment to the roof and various housing units. Having a fully operational
service elevator will ensure that staff can transport personnel and equipment to multiple floors
during normal operations, and more importantly during an emergency.
The State of California must certify the elevator for operation and will only certify the circuit board
driver from the original equipment manufacturer, KONE, Inc. In order to prevent any potential
damage to the already State certified driver when the rebuilt motor is connected and powered up,
staff has determined that KONE, Inc. is the best qualified to perform the motor repair.
STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of this item allows the City to meet Goal #6 - Community Facilities & Infrastructure,
Objective #2 (address deferred maintenance on City buildings and equipment).
