systems at the Davis County Detention Center. This is a resultant bid from the March 15th hail storm which caused significant damage to the HVA systems at the detention center. Please note the two lowest bids were not recommended due to few vendors in the area being able to service units bid and their anticipated lifespans. Additionally, the anticipated lead time for the recommended units is 6 weeks, while the other units lead time is approximately 12 weeks. Project manager Bickot is most familiar with the units in the recommended bid as they were the brand found in most of our facilities. The cost of the repairs and replacements will be offset by insurance reimbursement. Our insurance carrier has reviewed the bids and middles and has approved this recommendation. Henry's Plumbing Incorporated is a known vendor. There were no exceptions to the specification and I would recommend approval. Thank you, Miss Surgeon. Any questions or comments from the court?
