2 <br />The comments made by the Public, the Board of County Commissioners, the <br />Planning Committee and the Historic District Commission were considered <br />and incorporated into the design being presented on April 1. <br />In addition, the Architects have met extensively with County <br />Departments over the past four months in order to design an efficient, <br />functional floor plan. That process is now complete and the <br />construction documents are being prepared. <br />From a regulatory process stand - -point the following action has been <br />taken: <br />December 5, 1990 -- Courtesy review with the Hillsborough Historic <br />District Commission; <br />December 6, 1990 --- Courtesy review with the Hillsborough Planning <br />Board; <br />March 13, 1991 -- Courtesy review with the Hillsborough Hoard of <br />Adjustment with generally favorable response. <br />March 20, 1991 -7Hillsborough Historic District Commission formally <br />reviewed project, requesting two additional weeks for study. <br />April 3, 1991 -- Hillsborough Historic District Commission third <br />review. We will hopefully receive approval following this meeting. <br />April 10, 1991 -- Hillsborough Board of Adjustment will formally <br />react to the plan. If approved, the zoning compliance permit can <br />be issued at which time plans will be bid. <br />In order to have the contract approved by July 1 and to realize the <br />benefits of a currently soft construction market, it is critically <br />important that approvals be in place by mid - April. If these time <br />frames are met, bids will be solicited by the end of May, with bid <br />award and contract approval coming before the County Commissioners on <br />June 3 and June 25 respectively. <br />RECOMMENDATION: Approve the final design for the Government Services <br />Center. <br />
