New Fire Panel to be Installed at Starke County Courthouse

The fire panel at the Starke County Courthouse will be replaced after Maintenance Director Jim Coad told the commissioners recently that it is obsolete.

Coad said the equipment needs to be upgraded before it goes out completely and there are no parts to fix it.  The dialer is also bad and needs to be replaced.

The dialer calls the security company if there’s an issue.

Coad recommended the lowest quote to replace both items from Johnson Controls at $10,973.

He also recommended a quote from Koorsen to replace the dialer at the County Records Building in amount of about $6,500.

The funding for the items will be taken from the maintenance department’s budget.

The commissioners approved the purchases with a unanimous vote.
