1 <br /> ORANGE COUNTY <br /> BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br /> ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT <br /> Meeting Date: November 17, 2020 <br /> Action Agenda <br /> Item No. 6-b <br /> SUBJECT: Discussion and Acceptance of the FY 2020-25 County Capital Investment Plan <br /> DEPARTMENT: County Manager & Finance and Administrative Services <br /> ATTACHMENT(S): INFORMATION CONTACT: <br /> Attachment 1 — Updated List of CIP Travis Myren — 919-245-2308 <br /> Amendments (Options 1 Gary Donaldson — 919-245-2453 <br /> and 2) Paul Laughton — 919-245-2151 <br /> Attachment 2 — Updated CIP Summaries <br /> (Options 1 and 2) <br /> Attachment 3 — Relevant CIP Project <br /> Pages <br /> Attachment 4 —Vehicle Fleet Information <br /> for Emergency Services <br /> and Sheriff's Office <br /> Attachment 5 — Debt Metric Models <br /> PURPOSE: To discuss the updated outstanding amendments to the Capital Investment Plan, <br /> and approve the acceptance of the FY 2020-25 County Capital Investment Plan (CIP). <br /> BACKGROUND: During the Intent to Adopt Budget work session on June 9, 2020, the Board <br /> approved amendments to the Capital Investment Plan that advanced the expansion of the <br /> Durham Technical Community College and amended several projects in Year 1 (FY 2020-21) <br /> intended to offset the cost of advancing that project. <br /> The Board postponed making decisions on proposed project amendments in Years 2 through 5 <br /> that are intended to more fully offset the cost of advancing the Durham Tech Expansion project <br /> into Years 1 — 3. The Board reviewed the proposed amendments at the September 10, 2020 <br /> work session, and provided direction to staff. At that time, the Board reached consensus on all <br /> of the amendments as represented in Attachment 1 with the exception of a $250,000 reduction <br /> in vehicle replacements in years 2 and 3. Therefore, Attachment 1 contains two options. The <br /> first option is to implement the $250,000 reductions in Years 2 and 3. The second option <br /> eliminates those reductions. <br /> The Vehicle Replacement project in the Capital Investment Plan has been used to replace <br /> public safety vehicles. As a result, the $250,000 reduction in Years 2 and 3 would result in the <br /> replacement of fewer vehicles in Emergency Services and the Sheriff's Office. If the reduction <br /> were balanced evenly across those two agencies, Emergency Services would forgo one <br /> ambulance remount or three supervisory vehicles scheduled for replacement over this two year <br />
