SUMMARY:
On November 17, 2008 and April 28, 2010, Council approved a 20-year and 15-year public/private partnership with Honeywell Building Solutions to retrofit various buildings with energy saving devices under the State of Florida Energy Savings Contract 973-320-08-1. These contracts included provisions for guaranteed savings under the Performance Contracting specifications.
The first contract was signed November 17, 2008. Several lighting changes were completed, air conditioning units were replaced and a dehumidifier was installed in the Long Center pool area to create a better air environment and to help protect the steel structure from rust and deterioration.
The second contract was signed on April 28, 2010. This contract included lighting changes in numerous buildings, air conditioning replacements and automated HVAC controls in various City buildings and a pool pump replacement at the Long Center.
Honeywell shall maintain all the systems installed for the term of the contracts. The contracts call for quarterly payments, and Honeywell may annually adjust the amounts charged based upon changes in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) through the contract terms.
In Lieu of staff coming before Council every year, staff is now seeking approval to allow automatic renewal of both Honeywell contracts until expiration.
