Subject:

Discussion and possible action to authorize the purchase of one (1) new Generac SD400 Series Diesel-Powered Generator to include but not limited to a new automated transfer switch, installation, freight, startup/commission and payment bond from Waukesha-Pearce Industries (Buy-Board Contract No. 657-21) in an amount not to exceed $156,482.00 for the Webb County Juvenile Detention Facility pursuant to the Texas Local Government Code; Section 271.101 & 271.102 (Sub-Chapter F.

Solution: Consideration to authorize price proposal submitted by WPI utilizing cooperative pricing for the removal of an existing generator and installation of a new 400Kw Generac Diesel Generator to include startup and commission. 
 
Result: If approved order will be placed, ETA for delivery is 2-3 weeks.
