Jeff Thompson said the award for the design contract comes back on June 4 th <br /> Commissioner McKee asked if there was a plan to use the wings on this facility. <br /> Jeff Thompson said there is no programming, but there is discussion about the cost <br /> benefits of doing so. <br /> Commissioner Price asked about the possibility of a library/cybrary. Also, EMS could <br /> use this space. <br /> Frank Clifton reminded the Board that this project is at $2,000,000 now. Any significant <br /> changes from the plan will increase this. He also clarified that the discussion about an EMS <br /> station would be a separate building entirely. <br /> Seymour Center: <br /> Paul Laughton said there is nothing in the next five years for this project. <br /> Southern Orange Campus future planning: <br /> Paul Laughton said this is for the future planning of this campus area. <br /> Frank Clifton said there are no specific guidelines at this time for this area. This will not <br /> affect the budget for this year. <br /> Southern Human Services Center: <br /> Paul Laughton said this expansion includes a dental clinic in year 4. This is $6.65 <br /> million in year 4. <br /> Chair Jacobs asked about the operating costs of the dental clinic in this part of the <br /> County. <br /> Frank Clifton said the Health Department is having discussions with Piedmont Health <br /> about having an operating agreement where the County provides the facility and Piedmont <br /> provides the staff. <br /> Southern Library: <br /> Paul Laughton said that the other parts of the funding besides the planning have been <br /> pushed out for a year. This is explained in Attachment B. The reason it was pushed back is <br /> because the debt service was too high for year 5. <br /> Commissioner Price asked to flag this and said she would not like to push this back a <br /> year. <br /> Commissioner McKee said he thinks the $600,000 should be pushed back also. <br /> Commissioner Gordon said she would be willing to flag it because she does not <br /> understand completely why it was pushed back. <br /> Commissioner Pelissier said she does not want to delay the $600,000 because it sends <br /> a message to Carrboro that this is being delayed. <br /> Chair Jacobs made reference to an email from him about 130 W. Main St. and the <br /> property behind this, the Butler Property. The Board of Alderman discussed library options for <br /> these two properties. The Board can discuss this at the proper time. <br /> Frank Clifton said it is all about timing of debt. <br /> Commissioner Price said since it is not known regarding the type of facility, then these <br /> numbers are hypothetical. <br /> Link Government Services Center: <br /> Paul Laughton said there is nothing new in this project in the next five years. <br /> HVAC Projects: <br />
