1 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br /> Action Agenda <br /> Item No. VL <br /> ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br /> Meeting Date: February 21 , 1989 <br /> SUBJECT: BID AWARD: RENOVATION OF BUILDING FOR ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICES <br /> DEPARTMENT: PURCHASING PUBLIC HEARING YES: NO: XX <br /> ATTACHMENT(S) : INFORMATION CONTACT: PAM JONES <br /> EXT 498 <br /> BID TABULATION Telephone Number- <br /> SITE LAYOUT Hillsborough -732-8181 <br /> • PROPOSED FACADE PLAN Chapel Hill -967-9251 <br /> PROPOSED FLOOR PLAN Mebane. -227-2031 <br /> Durham -688-7331 <br /> PURPOSE: To consider awarding a bid for renovation of the old laundry <br /> building on the grounds of the Revere Road County Annex, <br /> to house the offices of the Health Department-Animal Control Division. <br /> • • <br /> BACKGROUND: The Animal Control offices are presently located in the <br /> County Annex on Revere Road. Since the inception of the Animal Control <br /> Ordinance the activity in this division has increased significantly and <br /> they have now completely outgrown available space. There are six • <br /> employees operating in 200 square feet of office space. <br /> As shown on the attached diagrams, the outside facade will closely <br /> resemble the facade on the main building, thereby somewhat tying the <br /> site together as a complex rather than single buildings. The floor <br /> plan is designed to be open in order to visually maximize the <br /> approximately 1300 square feet. There will be only one enclosed office <br /> in the building. In addition, the reception area to the front of the <br /> building is designed in a manner that should allow for more efficient <br /> handling of citizens. <br /> The apparent lowest bidder for this project is Holt Construction <br /> Company, Graham, NC at a cost of $65,840. An alternate was included in <br /> this bid to allow for removal of a block of concrete down the center of <br /> the floor where the washers were located when this building was used as <br /> a laundry. It is possible the concrete extends out and under the <br /> floor further than we anticipate, thereby requiring a greater amount of <br /> demolition and repair. The cost of the alternate is $1 ,010. We are <br /> requesting that the Board approve the award for $66,850 with the <br /> understanding that $1 ,010 expenditure may not be required. <br /> • <br />
