<br />South Bend Redevelopment Commission <br />227 West Jefferson Boulevard, Room 1308, South Bend, Indiana <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Redevelopment Commission Agenda Item <br /> <br />DATE : 12/12/2024 <br /> <br />FROM: Patrick Sherman <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Studebaker Museum HVAC Project <br /> <br />Funding Source* (circle) River West; River East; South Side; Douglas Road; West Washington; RDC General; Riv. East Res. <br />* Funds are subject to the City Controller's determination of availability; if funds are unavailable, as solely determined by the City Controller, then the <br />authorization of the expenditure of such funds shall be void and of no effect. <br /> <br />PURPOSE OF REQUEST: Public Works solicited quotes for the replacement of two failing HVAC units at the <br />Studebaker Museum as part of planned capital improvements. We would like to request $15,000 in order to <br />award the project . <br /> <br />SPECIFICS: RDC previously approved $150K for two capital projects that are needed at the Studebaker Museum. <br />Those two projects were renovation work on the large skylight, and the replacement of two failing HVAC units <br />that also use refrigerant that is no longer useable because of EPA guidelines. The skylight project came in within <br />budget and was awarded at the 11/26/2024 BPW meeting. At that same meeting, the Board also opened quotes <br />for the HVAC project. The lowest responsive quote came in about $15K above budget. The work is needed at the <br />Museum, where a stable temperature and humidity environment is important for the maintenance of the <br />collection. We would like to be able to award the quote, and ensure this important work is completed. <br /> <br /> <br /> _________________________Pres/V-Pres <br /> <br />ATTEST: __________________Secretary <br /> <br />Date: ____________________ <br /> <br /> APPROVED Not Approved <br />SOUTH BEND REDEVELOPMENT COMMISSION
