Interim measures are recommended in order to accommodate the inevitable growth of these departments prior to the new facility's construction, however. Following relocation of the Register of Deeds, Land Records, Tax Assessor and Revenue office to the new campus facility, the Manager and Commissioner offices will be allocated additional space within the existing building. In addition, the Finance, Budget and Personnel offices, currently located at the Government Services Center Annex, will relocate to the Government Service Center. The Government Services Center Annex would then be available for reallocation to the Court system. Update: The Board of Elections will not relocate to the Link Center, but will rather remain in the expanded space made available at their existing site by the relocation of the EDC to the expanded county campus. This study recommends that the Human Rights and Relations Department remain at its current location at 503 W. Franklin Street, Chapel Hill, rather than being incorporated into the Administrative Building. Consistent with earlier recommendations, the Government Services Annex will be reallocated for use by Court offices, such as Juvenile Services and Probation /Parole. Staff will be working with the court officers to determine the most efficient use of the space in their operations. Other elements of the Administrative Building project have been discussed elsewhere in this report and are, therefore, not repeated here. Next Steps/Recommendations 1. The report will be modified to reflect any changes agreed to by the Board. 2. Placeholders in the appropriate funding years will be incorporated into the 2005- 2015 Capital Improvements Plan to be presented in April 2005. update: 2007-2017 Capital Improvements Plan, to be presented in Spring 2007. 3. The report will be kept current by updating it periodically to 'reflect decisions made regarding space, such as the Library Task Force Report and the unadopted Parks Strategic Plan. 4. The space needs assessment team, along with other departmental representatives as may be appropriate, will review park properties and buildings contained thereon to determine potential uses that may be recommended. 5. In tandem with the formulation of the annual Capital Plan, cost projections will be updated by credible means for all projects within a two-year development window to ensure accuracy within current conditions.
