Marion County <br />BUSIIYESS SERVICES <br />Financial Services Divn. <br />MEMOKAI`IDUM <br />Date: June 27, 2000 <br />To: ~ ~ ~w% ~ ~ ,~ <br />~~ .. ~~ <br />Randy Curtis <br />From: Peggy Mitchell <br />RE: Systems & Other Furniture Purchases for Courthouse Square <br />Attached is a revised summary of all known furniture purchases for our move into Courthouse <br />Square. I have also attached copies of each department's written responses to our request for <br />cost center, fiscal year funds budgeted, other furniture requirements and request and justification <br />for assistance from the project budget. <br />I received a voice message from Carolyn Berry at Neighbor to Neighbor yesterday afternoon. <br />Originally they requested that we price out panels and one workstation unit for them. Carolyn <br />indicated that she is negotiating with her executive board to find the funds to purchase the <br />partitions only for their leased space in the building. They will not be purchasing the work <br />surfaces that we had quoted, only the paneling. They would also like to seek assistance from the <br />project to purchase their panel needs with the caveat that if they leave they building, the county <br />would own the panels. She will follow up with written communication to me by Friday. <br />As you know, the price quote obtained from Office World included pricing for electrical <br />connections and powered panels where needed. The vendor has isolated the electrical <br />connection costs for each department per a request from Bob McCune. He wanted a cost <br />comparison of Herman Miller installed electrical connections vs. his staff wiring the necessary <br />panels. He had indicated that this portion of the expense could be absorbed by the project rather <br />than by each department if it proved to be cost effective to purchase powered panels. I've <br />attached a spreadsheet showing the electrical portion for each department. T'he total comes to <br />$11,356.80 to add the power connections where we indicated. I would ask that consideration be <br />made to reduce each department's portion by the electrical costs and have the project absorb this <br />cost. <br />My deadline to place the order for systems furniture anc~ enter a PO to reserve funds is Friday, <br />
