County Debt Service and Debt Capacity— based on the Manager's recommended funding, <br /> the County's annual debt service as a percent of the General Fund budget would remain under <br /> 15% until FY 16-17, when it would reach 15.35%. <br /> Note: An additional summary is provided in the Appendices section, which reflects the debt <br /> service percent if all the Recommended and the Requested, but Unfunded projects were <br /> included during the FY 2012-17 CIP period. This would increase the percentage to 16.97% in <br /> FY 16-17, and would approach 20% by FY 17-18. <br /> Active County Capita/Projects—also included in the Appendices section is a list of all <br /> currently active County Capital projects with available balances as of January 31, 2012. <br /> Paul Laughton made reference to the old Ag center and the cost of updating this for <br /> $1.5 million. He said that this should be discussed before renovating this building. <br /> Frank Clifton said that this money could be used to update the Blackwood property <br /> instead. <br /> Commissioner Gordon encouraged this type of thinking and having a long-term space <br /> needs plan. She said that it important to get out of rental space and consolidate County offices. <br /> Commissioner Yuhasz asked if there was adequate space in the office buildings to <br /> accommodate the staff that are currently located in the Environmental/Ag space. Frank Clifton <br /> said that there is not enough space right now in one place to be functional. He said that his <br /> concern for suggesting this was the cost of maintenance and operation of the older buildings. <br /> The Blackwood property would be an opportunity to invest the $1.5 million into this. <br /> Commissioner Jacobs said that he agreed with Commissioner Gordon in that they need <br /> to have some basic principles on how to analyze space needs. He said that there are finro <br /> different Blackwood Farms—one is near Hillsborough and one is not. He thinks that one of the <br /> principles is to try and keep the services as close together as possible. He thinks that this <br /> should still be a priority. Either way, there are buildings for sale that are not being used. There <br /> is also the Annex, the Whitted Building, and downstairs of the Link Building. He said that there <br /> needs to be a systematic way to analyze space needs. There are two space needs plans and <br /> he suggested starting with these plans first and see what changes need to be made. He wants <br /> to make the best of the County's resources. <br /> Chair Pelissier asked Frank Clifton when something might come before the Board. <br /> Frank Clifton said that the staff could do some analysis and come back next fall for <br /> Board review. <br /> Commissioner McKee said that he realizes that the costs of maintaining a building can <br /> sometimes exceed the cost of doing something new, however, he would caution the County <br /> Commissioners to remember the fiscal constraints the County has faced, and that the services <br /> to their citizens should come first. <br /> Commissioner Gordon said that there was a notebook at one time with all of the County <br /> buildings and the space analysis. She said that before Pam Jones retires, she hopes that this <br /> information will be updated. <br /> Paul Laughton continued going through the components of the CIP notebook. <br /> Northern Human Services Center: <br />
