FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this request will result in up to $404,117 in contractual service expenditures over a five-year period and will be funded 100% by the Sheriff's Office budgeted General Fund.
BACKGROUND:
The City of Pittsburg notified the Office of the Sheriff on April 12, 2022, that it would not renew the lease agreement for the Law Enforcement Training Center (LETC) at 340 Marina Boulevard in Pittsburg. The LETC offers essential regional law enforcement training and hosts the Basic Police Academy.
At the end of the lease term on December 31, 2022, the Office of the Sheriff relocated to a temporary space at 1850 Muir Road in Martinez. After a thorough search, a permanent venue was secured at 4300 Delta Gateway Boulevard in Pittsburg. The new building is undergoing renovation improvements and will require an installation of audio-visual equipment to support the daily functions of the training center.
The contract for an AV equipment installation at the LETC went out for bid on August 9, 2023. EIDIM was a successful bidder out of a total of five proposals. EIDIM was able to meet all bid criteria and demonstrated experience with AV projects of similar scope that they have completed in Contra Costa County.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If not approved, the Office of the Sheriff will not be able to accommodate the operational needs of the LETC staff, Academy recruits, and regional training participants.
