Agenda Statement
Item Title: To approve Replacement of City Hall rooftop units: $62,893
Submitted by: Joe Vernier, DPW Foreman
Summary (Tabled from August 16, 2022 meeting)
There are four (4) air conditioning/heating units on the roof at city hall. One unit (2005) controls
City Council chambers. One unit (2009) controls the Fire Department. The other two (2000 and
2003) control city hall. One of the city hall units was down for 2 days before the contractor was
able to get it up and running, but it is only running at 50% capacity. The city hall units are over
20 years old and the parts to fix them are no longer available. There is a 24-26 week lead time
for new units. Three quotes were received:
Climate Pros (2000 & 2003) $32,259.00
Holdwicks Heatinq & Coolinq $37 200.00
Hutchison Mechanical Co .• Inc. $35,500.00
It was recommended to purchase from Climate Pros, who provided the lowest quote. Based on
Climate Pros lowest quote for two (2) units, City Council requested a quote to consider
replacement of all four (4) units at the August 16 meeting. The quote from Climate Pros to
replace four (4) units is as follows:
2 City Hall/Fire rooftop units (2000 and 2009) $18,545 each $37,090.00
2 City Hall/Council Chambers rooftop units (2003 $13,714 each $27,428.00
and 2005)
Less discount for multiple units/one crane $-1,625.00
TOTAL S62.893.00
There is a per unit cost saving purchasing two additional units and there is a savings using the
crane for multiple units.

This is a rental property and the owner has a post office box in Marine City.
The city attorney has requested that the City Council declare this property a nuisance
per City Code Section 34-18 so that enforcement can be initiated in the St. Clair County
Circuit Court.

RESOLVED, to approve Resolution #2022-10 and declare 2137 Washington a nuisance
