Perry, Purchasing Supervisor 3`Q � <br /> SUBJECT: Bid for compressor <br /> SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: Staff recommends awarding contract to King Lar to <br /> furnish and install one (1) 20HP, 75CFM 230/460 Carlyle medium temperature compressor and <br /> remove and dispose of existing unit. <br /> BACKGROUND: The new compressor operates the air conditioners or chillers at the South <br /> Water Treatment facility.

In addition, <br /> since King Lar is a local firm, the response time to calls should be much faster than an out of <br /> town firm. <br /> POTENTIAL OBJECTION: None <br /> INPUT FROM OTHER SOURCES: Water Management requested the compressor and <br /> recommend approval of the bid. <br /> STAFF REFERENCE: Keith Alexander, Director of Water Management, 424=2863 and Rob <br /> Shirley, Water Production Manager, 424-2866. Keith will be at the council meeting to answer <br /> any questions the Council may have about this purchase. <br /> BUDGET: $7900 from the Water Fund. <br />
