I The CIP has been prepared anticipating continued slow economic growth of between 1 -2% annually over the next five years. Many of the projects in the CIP will rely on debt financing to fund the projects. County Capital — Highlights The County Capital section includes two (2) new projects in Years 1 -5 that were not part of the FY 2014 -19 CIP. These projects include the following: Generator Projects — includes $30,000 for design services and $100,000 for a generator at Hillsborough Commons in Year 1 (FY 2015 -16); $100,000 in Year 2 (FY 2016 -17) for a generator at Animal Services Facility; and $175,000 in Year 3 (FY 2017 -18) for generators at Cedar Grove, Efland Cheeks, and Historic Rogers Road Community Centers. 9 -1 -1 Back -up Center— includes $369,499 in Year 1 (FY 2015 -16) to provide a 9 -1 -1 Back -up Communications Center at the West Campus Office Building in Hillsborough. The NC 9 -1 -1 Board requires that all Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) have a back -up plan, no later than July 1, 2015, in the event of an outage or abandonment of the primary 9 -1 -1 Center. Other Major County projects include the following: Southern Orange Campus (Future Planning) — Design services of $400,000 were included in FY 2014 -15, with site development infrastructure work of $3,600,000 in Year 1 (FY 2015 -16) for campus buildings not associated with the existing Southern Human Services Center (SHSC). Expansion of the existing SHSC is included in a separate CIP project. Southern Human Services Center Expansion — A full site master plan Special Use Permit ( "SUP ") was approved in June 2014, providing the Board adopted guidance regarding expansion and remodeling to accommodate future Human Services and other identified County needs. The facility will be programmed to follow logical and timely development of master plan and Space Study work group recommendations (that will be presented to the Board of Commissioners in Spring of 2015). The Plan includes $75,000 in Year 1 (FY 2015 -16) for schematic design services to assist in visioning the expanded space and its potential uses, and $6,475,000 in Year 2 (FY 2016 -17) for the expansion, which includes a Dental Clinic. Southern Branch Library — Funding of $600,000 was approved in FY 2013 -14 for possible land purchase; Design and engineering work of $472,500 is included in Year 1 (FY 2015 -16), and construction costs of $5,625,000 and $750,000 in equipment and furnishings are included in Year 2 (FY 2016 -17). Note: construction costs for this project have been reduced from the current CIP by approximately $1,400,000 due to the square footage reduction from 18,000 to 15,000 square feet, as well as a reduction in the number of dedicated parking spaces, from 80 to 50 spaces. Proposed Jail — total project costs of approximately $21,600,000, with site related planning costs of $500,000 in Year 1 (FY 2015 -16), architectural /engineering costs of $500,000 in Year 2 (FY 2016 -17), with the construction of a new 144 bed jail in Year 3 (FY 2017 -18). Note: Construction costs for this project have been reduced from the current CIP by approximately $4,100,000 due to building an initial 144 bed capacity, down from the 216 bed capacity in the current CIP, with expansion potential of up to a 250 bed capacity.
