Subject:

Discussion and possible action to allocate funds and approve the completion of a Disabled Accessible Project at the County Clerk's Office and the Veteran's Office by installing automatic door operators ($3,558.00 - Door Control Services, Inc.) on the current doors at the County Clerk's office and ADA hard-wired buttons ($507.26 - Door Control Services and $56.38 - 3G Electric Supply) at the Veteran's office for a total amount of $4,121.64. This project will meet with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements. [Account #001-0106-6401]

Issue: County Clerk's office entrance doors are not automatic and cause difficulty for disabled public to access the office. The Veteran's office entrance door is not compatible with ADA Standards. The door buttons run out of battery frequently. Three quotes have been attached.

Solution: Install operator at the County Clerk's office and ADA buttons that are hard-wired at the Veteran's office.

Result: Provide adequate accessibility to the general public in the office of the County Clerk and the Veteran's Office.
