Purpose

To authorize the expenditure of contingency $ for the purpose of adding electrical wiring to the County Board Gallery during the installation of the new voting system, to provide for a charging station at each board seat.

Background

Sauk County recently authorized the replacement of the voting system in the county board Gallery.  As a part of the upgrade to voting system, it was suggested by several board members to add power to each board member seat to charge the various devices being used by the board members.  The Facilities Director explored what is required to get power to the current seats.  Eighteen (18) floor and two (2) pass through boxes currently exist in the floor of the boardroom.  The size of the existing floor boxes need to be enlarged in order for microphone, voting, and power wires to pass through.  Quotes were requested of several electrical contractors to complete this work.  The contractors propose to enlarge the existing floor cores, provide (18) new  4” floor boxes and (2) speed sleeves for wiring to pass through.  Two electrical contractors provided pricing to upgrade the county boardroom floor boxes.  The Facilities Director recommends that the county contract with Hill’s Wiring, Inc. to replace the existing floor boxes and add electrical outlets in the county board room at a cost of $18,450.00.
