Unfinished Business

 

1.  Fire alarms that ring outside.  A representative of Pekin Insurance called.  He stated there was no formal recommendation of any additional alarm equipment.  We comply with local code, we comply with fire Marshall and no additional equipment was required when building was built, so no recommendation to install now.  Any insurance credit for installation would probably be very small and not offset cost. Does the Board wish to install an outdoor fire ala (Action)

 

2. The library website proposal of $3,900. From Willis Computer Solutions includes the actual cost of $1,500 to fully conform to ADA requirements & would include Screen reader accessibility.
