Body

 

Requested Agenda Item Description: Budget neutral request ($840,134) Budgeting to the activity level on the project. Funding is from current available budget in 2024 and unencumbered funds from previous years 2021 - 2023.

New Energy Audits $683,861 The energy audits are being requested to identify energy & cost saving opportunities at individual facilities. The audits provide detailed recommendations and prospects at each facility to save on operating costs, utility costs, and maintenance costs. Included in the audits are detailed tables showing construction costs, rebates, potential savings, and payback periods. The energy audits will inform our long-term replacement strategy for cost effective options to reduce Salt Lake County utility and operational expenses.

LED $144,350 This request will allow us to continue the effort of converting lighting to LED bulbs & fixtures. This change significantly reduces electricity usage & maintenance expense, while receiving utility incentives to help reduce the replacement costs.

YSV003 $11,923 The requested amount will be used to cover Change Order #5 to Gardner Company on the Youth Services solar array project. The requested change order covers additional equipment and costs associated with the installation of the batter and solar array. This change order is currently being processed.
