 Background: The West Square Administration (West Square) building is home to many of the county’s departments. The facility has a rubber-ballasted roof that has come to the end of its expected life. It was determined during the installation of the new roof, that current lightning protection system does not meet the current lightning protection standards. The lightning protection system is original to the building dating back to the 1994-95 construction. Since the building’s opening two leasees have added cellular arrays on top of the building. The arrays need to be properly tied into the buildings lighting protection ring. The replacement lightning protection system has been designed to meet the most current UL96A, LP115, and NFPA780 standards. Building Services has budgeted for the West Square roof replacement and associated work as a capital project. Proposals were requested from qualified lightning protection contractors. Two vendors responded with proposals. The Property Committee recommends the replacement of the West Square lightning protection system be awarded to PRO LIGHTINING PROTECTION. at cost of $13,900.00.] AUTHORIZING TO CONTRACT WITH PRO LIGHTNING PROTECTION TO REPLACE THE ROOF TOP LIGHTNING PROTECTION SYSTEM ON THE WEST SQUARE ADMINISTRATION BUILDING
