25 distribution system from the basement to the first floor to protect the system from potential water intrusions. • Lower Link Center Remodel-$15,000 The FY2017-18 CIP includes funding for professional services to design a remodel of the lower level of the John Link Jr. Government Services Center. The remodeled space could be used as a replacement facility for the Public Defender's Office and as expansion space for the Criminal Justice Resource Office. As the Criminal Justice Resource Office is projected to grow, its current office space in the Courthouse will become inadequate. If the Public Defender were to vacate the offices located at 129 East King Street, that facility could be repurposed or sold. A total of $160,000 is recommended in FY2018-19 to complete the remodel. • Old Courthouse Square—Building and Grounds Improvements-$85,000 The FY2017-18 CIP proposes to continue building and grounds improvements that were initiated in FY2016-17. The FY2017-18 proposed projects include engaging a landscape architect to lead a public input process, developing a master site plan, completing the second phase of an archeological study, and retaining a structural engineer to recommend improvements to the facility's overall structural stability. • Southern Human Services Campus Improvements-$4 million The FY2017-18 CIP combines projects related to the Southern Human Services Building and the Seymour Center into one Campus Improvement Project. The combination of these projects is intended to enhance construction efficiency on the site. The $4 million recommended in FY2017-18 would complete access and site improvements for the campus including straightening the main entrance road, improving stormwater facilities, adding parking to the Seymour Center, and improving the traffic flow around the Human Services Center. Following those access and safety improvements, facility renovation would begin in FY2019-20 which would provide approximately 13,000 square feet of additional space for dental and medical services and add 2,200 square feet of programmable space to the Seymour Center. These facility improvements are currently estimated to be approximately $5.2 million and are recommended for FY2019-20. • Other Critical Infrastructure Improvements for 2017-18 o HVAC Projects - $122,000 to replace aging HVAC equipment at the Visitors' Center in Chapel Hill, the Dickson House in Hillsborough, and a partial replacement of equipment at the Seymour Center in Chapel Hill. o Roofing and Building Facade Projects - $102,444 to replace roofing at the Visitors' Center in Chapel Hill and the Whitted Facility in Hillsborough. These improvements are consistent with the recommendations of the Roof Asset Management Plan updated in FY2016-17. Financing the Capital Investment Plan The Recommended Capital Investment Plan for FY2017-18 totals $27.5 million in expenditures. Of that amount, $22.5 million is recommended to be financed by County funded debt. Other significant sources Page 17
