2 <br />Based on feedback and direction from the Board of County Commissioners during the <br />work sessions, the following pages have been revised (changes are highlighted in <br />yellow) from the original projects submitted at the March 11, 2014 Manager's <br />Recommended CIP presentation: <br />County Projects <br />• Blackwood Farm Park (CIP Page 45) - reflects a revised project for the Blackwood Farm <br />Park to remove funding for a new Agricultural, Environment, and Parks Center at <br />Blackwood Farm Park in Years 6 -10, and reflects the construction of a Parks Operations <br />Base only in Years 6 -10, at a total cost of approximately $1,218,200. This revised <br />scenario reduces the debt service by approximately $459,000 per year beginning in Year <br />7. This project page is the same as the scenario presented at the May 15, 2014 work <br />session. <br />• Environment and Agriculture Center (CIP Page 34) - reflects a revised project of an <br />adaptive re -use or deconstruction /new construction of the current Environment and <br />Agricultural Center (EAC) on Revere Road in Year 4 (FY 2017 -18) at a total cost of <br />approximately $3,383,600. This revised scenario increases the debt service by <br />approximately $187,000 per year beginning in Year 5. This project page is the same as <br />the scenario presented at the May 15, 2014 work session. <br />Note: Preliminary and schematic design of this site and facility will include an <br />assessment and analysis of a full Environment and Agricultural Center with an array of <br />services that may include site related amenities, such as demonstration plots and multi- <br />purpose sites for educational use. The results of these assessments will be presented to <br />the Board of Commissioners during the design phase of the project (currently budgeted <br />in Year 4 of the CIP) <br />• Proposed Jail (CIP Page 32) - reflects a revised project of the Proposed Jail with a <br />phased in construction approach in Year 4 of a Central Core and housing space for the <br />County needs (141 inmates), as well as housing Federal inmates (75 inmates), for a total <br />capacity of 216 beds. The total cost is approximately $26,580,000. This revised <br />scenario decreases the debt service by approximately $328,320 per year beginning in <br />Year 5. Additional future expansion, reflected on the Facility Expansion Concept <br />illustration as two (2) additional housing unit segments, could be accommodated at a <br />cost of approximately $100,000 per bed, but this is anticipated to be beyond the current <br />10 -year CIP timeframe. This project page is the same as the scenario presented at the <br />May 15, 2014 work session. <br />Note: The Board of Commissioners received a preliminary capacity analysis of the new <br />Jail Facility requirements at the May 15, 2014 work session. Staff will provide at an <br />upcoming June budget work session, additional information on the initial construction <br />costs of a central core facility and additional expansion of bed facilities (when needed), <br />as well as provide further clarity of the economics of housing federal inmates. <br />• Life Safety— ADA (CIP Page 37) —reflects moving various projects from Years 6 -10 to <br />Years 1 -5. <br />Sportsplex Projects <br />• Sportsplex (CIP Pages 84 -85) - reflects revised Sportsplex project pages showing the <br />Debt Service impact of the major expansion projects. This project page is the same as <br />the one presented at the May 15, 2014 work session. <br />
