SUBJECT/RECOMMENDATION:
Title
Ratify and confirm a payment to ServPro of Largo in the amount of $136,552.32 for preventative repairs and maintenance on the sprinkler system at the Main Library.
Body
SUMMARY:
Following the rupture of a fire sprinkler line at the Main Library in September 2023, ServPro of Largo was called in to mitigate and repair the damages. They worked closely with the insurance carriers and their assigned adjuster, as well as the contractors performing the work. While onsite, Cintas performed additional fire sprinkler repairs and related assessment of the remaining fire sprinkler lines. While necessary to prevent a future occurrence, this work is not covered by the insurance claim as it is considered preventative repairs and maintenance, and the City is responsible for payment of the invoice. Since the work has been completed and ServPro has advanced payment to the contractors, a ratify and confirm is necessary to reimburse ServPro as this will not be covered by insurance proceeds.
