E:] <br />Removing the building reduces parking demand by 1 space per each 300 SF of building space <br />and allows the area of the building to be expanded parking for the courts and Link Center. <br />(2) A second option could be to move some other governmental function to that space (state or <br />county). This option further negatively impacts parking issues downtown. <br />(3). Third, we can continue the current activities as they are. However, the building space far <br />exceeds the needs of the Board of Elections with utility and maintenance costs being duplicative <br />of vacant space in the Link Center. <br />SUMMARY <br />It is difficult to look out into the future with any degree of certainty (especially, as the role of county <br />government is in continuous change). We make effort to extract as many uses out of county buildings <br />and facilities as possible (county needs as well as others). The Whitted Building appears to have a never <br />ending lifecycle. Existing County uses and investments ensure the facility will continue to be a <br />governmental asset for many years to come. Someday, it may move to other non - governmental use and <br />ownership; that does not appear to be in the near future. However, if the County Commission sees <br />merit in the proposals discussed within this report we can move that process forward. <br />Finally, it is recognized the Town of Hillsborough's parking requirements will play a key role to whatever <br />future uses are employed at the Whitted Building. If the Town and County can find agreeable methods <br />to address that issue, the future of Whitted' s use to support cultural and community related activities <br />will be brightened. otherwise, those options remain elusive. <br />ATTACHMENTS <br />I. orange County Cultural Center -- Strategic Business Plan <br />2.
