Fire Alarm System Card Access and Security Uagrades The existing fire alarm systems at the City Hall are an older zoned type, and do not comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, NFPA 72, UL® Revision 9 Standards or Life Safety Code 101. While none of these codes require the City to upgrade, the City should plan for updating it's most important system. Johnson Controls will install a new fully addressable fire alarm system with new control panels, enunciator panels, sensing devices and notification devices. As allowed by existing codes the ull Johnson Controls Duopirrox 4.� stations next to the entry and exit doors will be removed. This is an area that is notorious for false alarms in many buildings. The duct smoke detector power supply in the south liquor store is miswired through the air handler system. Therefore, when the air handling unit is shut down, the fire alarm activates. Johnson Controls will rewire this system to eliminate these nuisance alarms. Controlling access and visual monitoring for buildings and managing entrance keys for personnel are major challenges for today's city buildings. In the event of loss of even one set of keys may require the re- keying of all entrance doors at a significant expense to the City. The Fire Station, Public Works, and several of the park buildings punch codes to gain access to the facilities. The park buildings codes are distributed to some community members for special events within the buildings. Along with access to buildings, this same punch code is used for the vehicle fueling station at the Public Works building. Access information is used to note fuel consumption for city vehicles. However, with a somewhat generic code, it is not possible to know whether all of the fuel being pumped is making it into city vehicles. Johnson Controls will install a Microsoft Windows® -based intelligent card access system with a user interface to facilitate card management, allow scheduled locking and unlocking of individual doors, monitoring of door use and logging of individual card use. In addition, this card access will track the user of the fuel and help track the amount of fuel each person uses. With this card access program, cards can be activated and deactivated for certain time frames, and it is a simple matter to deactivate lost cards. All code locks would be eliminated, with the existing keys still working for the times that power is lost. Most city buildings currently have closed caption video camera systems. However, current camera coverage does not adequately monitor all areas that require surveillance. There have been issues with vandalism in areas that are not covered by current cameras. The Public Works building does not currently have any security cameras.
