TITLE
Recommendation to authorize City Manager, or designee, to execute any necessary documents to enter into two agreements, including any necessary subsequent amendments, with Johnson Controls Fire Protection LP, of Milwaukee, WI, for fire alarm monitoring services for the new Checked Baggage Inspections System building and the Ticketing building at the Long Beach Airport, in an annual amount of $2,000, for a period of one year with two consecutive one year periods, for a total agreement amount not to exceed $6,000, over three years. (District 5)
DISCUSSION
Fire alarm monitoring services are required to achieve Fire Life Safety acceptance and a subsequent Temporary Certificate of Occupancy (TCO) permit for the new Checked Baggage Inspection System building and Ticketing building (Buildings) at the Long Beach Airport (Airport).

Johnson Controls will provide remote monitoring services and contact appropriate parties, including the Long Beach Fire Department, if an event occurs. Historically, Airport Safety Dispatch monitors all fire alarm panels in the vicinity of the Terminal. The Buildings will be connected to Airport Safety Dispatch at a later stage of the Phase II Terminal Area Improvements project. In the interim, the Airport will require two agreements for two separate buildings with this third-party vendor, Johnson Controls, to perform this service.
The combined annual cost for fire alarm monitoring for both Buildings will not exceed $2,000 for the first year. The agreement for each location shall self-renew for successive periods of one year thereafter and may be terminated prior to the expiration of a term upon 30 days prior written notification.
