No Action Recommended. <br />Three facilities are briefly discussed in the report, however, no action is recommended during <br />the study period through 2010.

Skills Development Center, 503 West Franklin Street, Chapel Hill <br />K. Cost Estimates, Conclusions and Recommended Actions <br />1. Cost Estimates <br />The cost estimates put forth in the report area based on current knowledge and markets <br />present in 2001. Construction estimates should be revised at the time of funding to reflect the <br />then - current market. <br />The recommended projects reflect an estimated expenditure of the following amounts: <br />a. $14 million of Level 1 plus Justice Facility Projects (2001 -2003) <br />b, $3 million for Level 2 projects, unadjusted for inflation, (2003 -2007) <br />c. $10 million for Level 3 projects, unadjusted for inflation, (2007 -2010) <br />d. Unspecified construction costs for uncategorized projects <br />2, Conclusions <br />Based on information submitted by County Departments, the Space Needs Task Force believes <br />that the projects cited in this report reflect a fair assessment of space needs through the year <br />2010 for the functions evaluated. With the exception of Justice Facility development particularly <br />in Chapel Hill /Carrboro, the projects evaluated in this report would appear to address County <br />department space needs for significantly beyond the period covered by the study. <br />However, as noted in this preliminary report, there were projects that were not evaluated due to <br />outstanding issues that precluded definitive recommendation. Therefore, in the Fall of 2001 <br />after further information is available, the Task Force will prepare a final report. <br />3. Recommended Action <br />The Space Needs Task Force recommends that the Board of County Commissioners: <br />a. discuss the Preliminary Report and provide comments <br />b. approve the Executive Summary of the report, and forward it to the Capital Needs <br />Task Force <br />c. receive the rest of the report pending completion of the Final Report in Fall 2001 <br />L. Space Needs Task Force Members <br />Questions regarding the substance of this study may be addressed to any of the Task Force <br />members: <br />Margaret Brown, County Commissioner <br />Alice Gordon, County Commissioner <br />.John Link, County Manager <br />Pam Jones, Director or Purchasing and Central Services <br />
