June 5, 2018 Agenda Item No.: __
A Resolution authorizing the City Manager to purchase goods and
services from Thor Guard, Inc. to furnish and install lightning prediction
and warning systems at multiple City parks.
Thor Guard is the technology currently deployed by the City for lightning
prediction. Thor Guard is the only system that uses predictive technology
to alert the p'ublic to possible lightning strikes. The systems will warn park
visitors that conditions are favorable for a lightning strike, and a horn will
sound alerting people to clear the area. Thor Guard software analyzes
current conditions including changes and shifts of earth's electrostatic
atmosphere to determine the possibility of a lightning strike in the area
even when none have actually occurred.
Presently, the City's Parks and Recreation Department ("department")
operates two (2) Thor Guard systems located at Murray Park and Dante
Fascell Park. Both systems require repairs and upgrades such as new
horn, strobe light, and software upgrades for automatic data and
warnings to supervisors' mobile devices.
Furthermore, the department desires to install two (2) new systems at
Palmer Park and South Miami Park, which are home to several softball,
baseball, football, and soccer leagues. The department wants to ensure
all of its active recreational parks that feature pools, ballfields, and tennis
courts are secured with a Thor Guard system nearby. Poster signs and a
new lightning policy, which goes along with the department's lightning
warning system by Thor Guard, will be set in place to make sure
supervisors, coaches, spectators, parents and children know the proper
procedures to implement in the event of a Thor Guard alert.
Thor Guard, Inc. has received patents for their product and it is the
opinion of the City staff that Thor Guard is the sole manufacturer and
