III.    Public Comment – None

IV.     Progress Report from Downes

Work in Progress:
Downes reported that the following items are currently in progress:
  • IRR system- The Chief expressed frustration with the IRR system not being complete and felt the definition of complete is different for ANI and the Town.
  • CCTV-Cameras are fully ready for use. They still are not positioned correctly and ANI has not met with the Chief, despite what others thought. The system never was integrated and in fact the OSPD provided a fix for the vendor. The Chief feels the Town is owed a credit and should not be charged for additional cameras because the vendor did not meet the spec.
  • Door access control-waiting for training and more fobs need to be programmed
  • Cable management never started. Ani waiting to do this to get more important work done.
  • PA/Radio-there is a speaker near a neighbor; it needs to be moved or repositioned. Also, the volume control is oddly placed in the cage in the storage bay.
  • Chief said building is not complete. Brian Humes said it will take some time but on the way.

COP Status:  Approximate 38k remaining. COP’s 99-104 discussed.
-Add systems to back up standby generator (generator #2). Matt Peacock said he was pleasantly surprised at the quote on this from Custom. The Chief stated he did not seem to think it was quite as much work as stated.
-Add large key storage cabinet- Because the OSPD kept the too small storage cabinet, there was a $183.00 charge.
-Change out chip key to key fob at gas station-Matt P. stated this was his mistake in which he misunderstood what people wanted.  There is no need for the $5616 for multi-use access software. Total upcharge-$2600
-Dispatch area-add owner supplied HP computer to Milestone system. This was previously discussed and the $7458 charge was not approved as this is not an integrated system and the OSPD came up with the fix and the computer. Downes to report back.
-COP 103- Need cable outlet for TV
-104-Rubber floor to fleet storage-While all agreed it may be a good idea, this has not been approved. A fence on the north side parking spaces was also discussed. Quotes will be solicited.

Punchlist- while the punchlist has been significantly addressed, there remain many items that have been unaddressed for quite some time. The chief showed pictures of the kitchen exhaust and switchplates, items that need a short amount of time yet nothing is happening.

Records Window- waiting for material for locks.

Generator Testing-completed

Signage-Road sign left to be installed. Should be this week or next

Owner Instruction-ANI and HVAC equipment remaining

Additional  cameras at Detention-previously discussed. One camera had to be re-ordered as it was not working.

Cable Management-Chief showed a picture of spaghetti wires. This will be an item that will likely remain until ANI can complete other more important function.

Meeting Adjourned at 3pm.


Respectfully submitted,

Carl P. Fortuna, Jr., First Selectman
