G:VICA05ure to <br />.A4kxch meet- 2 <br />Town <br />of <br />April 8, 1999 <br />Mr. John Link <br />Orange County Manager <br />P.O. Box 8181 <br />Hillsborough, NC 27278 <br />RE: Fairview Community. Policing Center <br />Dear John: <br />I wanted to write this letter to start a discussion regarding funding methodology for the proposed <br />Fairview Community Policing Center to be shared by the Town of Hillsborough and Orange <br />County. Since we are both in the middle of our budget processes I thought it was important to <br />start discussions on this issue as soon as possible. I am open to any ideas.or alternate suggestions <br />you may have on the funding methodology or any issue related to the Fairview Center. Included <br />below are a few key figures that may help in establishing a fair basis for cost sharing on this <br />project: <br />*Estimated Budu-et for Center <br />Construction <br />$184,000 <br />Design . <br />11,000 <br />Contingency <br />18,000 <br />Landscape <br />3,000 <br />Parking <br />4.000 <br />TOTAL <br />$220,000 <br />*Construction estimates are based on a 2,300 square foot building at $80 per square foot. The <br />budget projections do not include the cost of furnishing the building, it's proposed these costs be <br />borne by the organization using its designated space. More specific estimates will be available <br />upon the architect's completion of the design process. <br />Major Building Features: <br />• 2,300 square feet, estimated <br />• 450, square foot multi - purpose room for Orange County, this includes storage space, and a <br />sink/kitchenette storage area. <br />• In addition to interior rest rooms (per the County's suggestion), two exterior accessible rest <br />rooms will be included so they can be opened, when necessary, to accommodate events on <br />the surrounding park property. <br />• An approximate 20 x 28 foot class /meeting room <br />• Office space for the Hillsborough Community Policing Division <br />• Small shower /locker room facility for HOD or as needed by the County <br />• The building would be designed so it could be expanded, if necessary, in the future <br />101 East Oranoe Street .
