5. FACILITIES MANAGEMENT / FACILITIES PLANNING & ENGINEERING (FPE) – NORTHWEST
CAMPUS BUILDINGS SECURITY ENHANCEMENT PROJECT
Facilities Management has reviewed bids received for the Northwest C ampus Buildings Security
Enhancement Project and is recommending that a contract be entered into with the lowest responsible
bidder, Mechanical Controls and Maintenance of Sterling Heights in the amount of $48,920 and further
recommends a total project cos t of $70,000, including contingency.
Mr. Holdsworth and Mr. Joss explained that the Sheriff and Building Safety did a study of the campus to
enhance security particular to the location of Little Oaks, Health, the North Office Building (NOB) and the
new Community Mental Health Authority Common Ground facility. All outside cameras will be recording
and public works campus security will monitor feedback. This is current campus technology. Other ideas
under review are moving Veterans and MSU Extension to another building or placing deputies and
scanners in all buildings that have public entrances, including the Troy South Oakland County building . If
additional deputies are put in place, security issues would be less and there may be no need for moving
anyone. All recommendations were prioritized and taken to the Budget Task Force (BTF). Priority 1 –
deputies and scanners – is being cost out and will go back to the BTF to decide funding. Money is set
aside in the current budget for security enhancement. Deputy costs would be rolled into the building rates
were they are assigned. Funding would be passed-through to the departments from the General Fund.
Contingency includes work to be done by facilities staff. Remaining unspent funds will fall back to the
Capital Improvement Plan (CIP).
Commissioner Woodward indicated to Mr. Holdsworth that it would be helpful to have an ongoing chart of
CIP projects as they go forward and others do not, including starting balance , amount spent to
date/purpose, etc .
Mr. Holdsworth indicated that he would find out from staff if they could generate a monthly or quarterly
report for the committee.
Dwyer moved to report to the Finance Committee to recommend approval of the attached
suggested Finance Committee resolution authorizing a contract with Mechanical Controls and
Maintenance of Sterling Heights in the amount of $48,920 and a total project cost of $70,000,
including contingency. Supported by McGillivray.
Motion carried unanimously on a roll call vote.
