The Lee Board of County Commissioners is considering ratification of an emergency expenditure for the Ortiz Jail. This project involves the replacement of a critical smoke panel, which is the central control for the facility's smoke evacuation system. The replacement will also include necessary updates to associated software and hardware to ensure full system functionality. This item is currently under review by the Board. The scope of work involves the procurement and installation of a new smoke panel, along with software and hardware updates. This could involve electrical contractors, low-voltage system specialists, and potentially IT support services.
