over a three year period (FY 2015 -16 through FY 2017 -18). See page 37 in the CIP <br />document for a complete funding scenario for this building and park facilities. <br />• Chapel Hill- Carrboro City Schools submitted as part of their unfunded new facilities <br />projects a Science Wing Addition at Culbreth Middle School totaling $4,971,676. The <br />majority of construction costs would occur in FY 2014 -15, with an anticipated opening <br />date of August 2015. Currently, this project is not included in the Manager's <br />Recommended FY 2013 -18 CIP. The impact of including this project in the CIP would <br />increase annual debt payments by a total of $477,281 ($57,600 in FY 14 -15, $427,588 in <br />FY 15 -16, and $477,281 starting in FY 16 -17 and future years). To pay for this, one or <br />several other projects would need to be deferred to Years 6 -10 or removed entirely in <br />order to accommodate this increased debt. <br />Also, at the meeting tonight, John Stock, CEO of Recreation Factory Partners, the operator of <br />the Sportsplex, will provide a short presentation of the planned lobby renovations, as well as the <br />proposed new building additions that are proposed in the CIP for the Sportsplex.
