Minutes of Meeting — January 11, 2001
Consider Proposed Resolution 010111 -1 approving Change Order No. 3 for
the Municipal Court and Jail contract.
Proposed Resolution No. 010111 -1 approves Change Order No. 3 in the amount
of $68,825 to Firemen Construction Company, Inc. Change Order No. 3 adds
two bollards, adds additional steel support for roof penetrations in both buildings
for the mechanical units, corrects installation of underground pipes to both
backflow preventers, revises the window frames in the guardhouse to improve
vision into the jail cells, widens the countertop in Room 241, and provides
$40,000 allowance to install additional security equipment (i.e., cameras and
panic alarm button). The contract award amount was $4,650,000.00 and this
change order along with the previous change orders represents a 1.6% cost
growth. Change Order No. 1 increased the contract amount by $7,000 and
Change Order No. 2 increased the duration by 120 construction days. The
contract's revised duration was 485 calendar days and the duration remains
unchanged.
We recommend approval.

Minutes of Meeting — January 11, 2001
were used as the benchmark. Crime is down and the clearance rate is up. The
value of property recovered is down, but the value of property lost is down a
greater percentage. The total warrants from Municipal Court are down while the
number of warrants served is up. The jail population is down and the time served
by incarcerated persons is up. Traffic accidents are up as are injuries, while
deaths and DWI remain level. Family violence shows a decrease. Juvenile
arrests are down, but up from 1999. Training is down, but that is a result of the
seasonal nature of training. There were two more offenses in 2000 than in 1999.
The decade of the '90's has shown a decrease in crimes committed each year,
except 1996. In 1990, 6094 offenses were committed. In 2000, 3255 offenses
were committed.
Adjourn
