Title
Budget Adjustment: Salt Palace Convention Center's Request for New Capital Project - Replace Kitchen Dishwasher (Budget Neutral Transfer $200,000 from Operations to Capital)
Body
Requested Agenda Item Description: As a result of a long tenure of the SPCC Dishwashing machine, the boiler and rinse tank leaks constantly in all areas of the machine, as well is a huge limescale build-up throughout it, replacement is the only remedy to the problem. The limescale buildup over its 25-year tenure it is now blocking the inlets. Both rubber and the silicone-based O-rings are deteriorated, The O-rings are use as dishwasher components, such as drain and rinse pumps, tap fittings, float valves and pressure switches. Most of the rinse jets are broken and due to the age of the machine the manufacturer no longer makes replacement parts. The Dishwasher motor or heater is not reaching out the right temperature for washing and rinsing cycles, the highest it gets is 135 degrees for washing when you need at least at 160 degrees and the rinse the highest is getting is 162 when you need to get at 180 degrees, this have been check and been tried to get fix but with the longevity of this machine is no way to get to the right temperature, not been in compliance with the sanitation standards making us failing each inspection Water pumps are not working properly, the pumps are no longer made by the original manufacturer. We are proposing to fund this project with a transfer from our Operating Expense Budget, making the adjustment budget neutral.
