2 <br /> Staff held an additional public input session on September 25, 2012. The focus of that meeting <br /> was to gather input and consensus on a development path of an approximate 10,000 square <br /> foot facility that would follow a new construction path ("Option 1") or the "adaptive re-use" <br /> construction path ("Option 2"). Attachment B, entitled "NHSC Development Option <br /> Comparison", compares and contrasts these two options. <br /> In summary, while both options are similar in total cost, Option 1 allows for more design and <br /> space planning flexibility. Option 2 maintains the important social, cultural, and historic <br /> elements within the design, but would restrict some space planning and use flexibility. <br /> The September 25, 2012 public meeting produced a strong preference for Option 2, the <br /> "adaptive re-use" path. Attachment C is a September 25, 2012 NHSC Community Meeting #2 <br /> Summary which provides the salient outcomes of that meeting. <br /> In addition to the preference for Option 2, the public meeting group embraced staff's suggestion <br /> that an informal resident design and review advisory group be presented to the Board for <br /> approval. <br /> If the Board approves staff moving forward with the project as recommended at the November <br /> 8, 2012 regular meeting, the development timeline would be as follows: <br /> TASK PROPOSED END BY <br /> BEGINNING DATE <br /> DATE <br /> BOCC Action: Receive ro'ect u date 10/25/12 10/25/12 <br /> BOCC Action: Decision on Mana er recommendations 11/8/12 11/8/12 <br /> NHSC fully vacated 12/31/12 12/31/12 <br /> Project design RFQ process; Board approval of Designer 3/1/13 6/20/13 <br /> Contract <br /> BOCC Action: Approval for Designer Professional Services 6/20/13 6/20/13 <br /> Agreement (est.) <br /> Pro�ect schematic desi n 6/20/13 10/20/13 <br /> BOCC Action: A roval of Schematic Desi n est. 10/20/13 10/20/13 <br /> Project final design, bid document preparation 11/1/13 1/31/14 <br /> Project Bid - abatement, deconstruction and adaptive re-use 2/1/14 4/28/14 <br /> construction (est.) <br /> BOCC Action: Bid Award, Budget Approval for Construction 6/20/14 6/20/14 <br /> (est.) <br /> Construction, Commissionin , O enin est. 8 months duration 7/1/14 3/1/15 <br />
