CHAPTER 7 -SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS <br />~- <br />related services for "one stop shopping" at a central <br />governmental complex. There is also the added challenge of <br />creating an azchitectural design that projects a "citizen <br />friendly" image while developing anaesthetic that is <br />sympathetic and responsive to the Historical Chazacter of <br />Hillsborough. Incorporating the existing courts and <br />detention facilities into this future complex will realize <br />significant savings for the overall cost of construction. <br />The Secondary Facility will be a single story facility <br />located in Chapel Hill possibly on land owned by the <br />County on Homestead Road or along the I-40 comdor <br />between Chapel Hill and Hillsborough (see Figure 1). This <br />facility is envisioned to be a satellite facility providing <br />limited duplicative services to the population center in the <br />southern end of Orange. County. The selected site will need <br />to meet criteria that addresses ease of access to public <br />transportation, availability to utilities, buildability and size <br />with respect to being able to accommodate future expansion. <br />Time Schedule for In order to address the identified 1995 deficiencies of space <br />Occupancy (approximately 28,000 gross square feet) and construct <br />facilities sufficient to meet the space needs through the yeaz <br />2020, it is the Justice Facilities Study Committee's <br />recommended goal to occupy both site locations by the yeaz <br />2000. This means that initial steps towazds achieving that <br />goal need to be started immediately and following the <br />outline in Figure 31. <br />Scope of Project The projected gross squaze footage required for the yeazs <br />2005 and 2020 aze; 213,530 and 312,840 square feet <br />respectively. The estimated total project costs for the yeazs <br />2005 and 2020 are $24,228,100 and $34,723,400 <br />respectively. These estimates include escalation for <br />inflation and assume a phased construction building plan to <br />be completed in the yeazs 2005 and 2020. The total project <br />costs spent for construction by the yeaz 2020 would be <br />$58,951,500.. <br />7-2 <br />
