14 <br /> Emergency Services Substations <br /> Project Category County Project Status: Active Project Type <br /> Functional Service Area: Public Safety Proposed Bid Date: TBD New x <br /> Department: Emergency Services Starting Date: 7/1/2016 Expansion x <br /> Project Number: 10053 Completion Date: 6/30/2023 Renovation x <br /> Replacement <br /> Project Description/Justification: <br /> Emergency Services Substations serve as satellite locations for ambulance units.These substations are strategically <br /> located to meet the highest response needs in the least amount of time.The County purchased land and an <br /> existing building in Efland to replace the existing EMS Station 4 located on Mt.Willing Road in Efland. The cost <br /> estimate to remodel the existing building was within $125,000 of the cost of a new building.At the same time,the <br /> County is statutorily required to provide storage space for unclaimed decedents, and the current facilities at 510 <br /> Meadowlands are failing and inadequate for current volume.As a result,this project proposes the construction of a <br /> new facility for the EMS station that would better meet the needs of the ambulance units. <br /> Additionally,funding is requested in FY2020-21 to update the existing building to meet the statutory requirements <br /> for a morgue including examination space, a cooler and shelving, a hydraulic lift,and additional reconfigurable <br /> shelves. <br /> Future EMS stations will be strategically located in districts that are experiencing increasing call volume and service <br /> demand. In areas that co-locations are not available, standalone stations are necessary. For areas where <br /> co-locations can occur there are efficiencies gained from sharing kitchen,training, and other common areas.The <br /> operating costs of the co-located facilities are also shared.The architectural design of the stations will allow for one <br /> drive through bay(with expansion for an additional drive through bay), secure storage for EMS medications, a <br /> decontamination area, equipment room with washer/dryer, sleeping quarters,training/conference room, office <br /> area, restrooms and shower, and public area separate from the secure area of the crew quarters. <br /> FY 2021-22: $2,000,000 to complete funding needed for the Waterstone/Orange Rural FD colocation <br /> FY 2022-23: $320,000 for architectural design for the Northern corridor standalone in FY 2023-24 <br /> FY 2023-24: Independent EMS station in the Northern corridor of the County <br /> Years 6-10:Two (2) Co-Locations with fire departments to be determined <br /> FINANCIAL SUMMARY <br /> Current Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Five Year 6 <br /> Prior Years Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Year to <br /> Project Budget Funding 2019-20 2020-21 2021-22 2022-23 2023-24 2024-25 Total Year10 <br /> Appropriation <br /> Professional Services <br /> Architectural Design for Stand Alone <br /> 150,000 320,000 320,000 <br /> Stations <br /> Location Study 50,000 <br /> Land/Building <br /> Highway 70/Efland-OCES Stand Alone 1,500,000 2,300,000 2,300,000 <br /> Waterstone Orange Rural FD 600,000 350,000 2,000,000 2,000,000 <br /> Co-Location 2 TBD 3,000,000 <br /> Co-Location TBD 3,000,000 <br /> Glenn Lennox-Chapel Hill FS#2 520,000 <br /> Norther Corridor OCES Stand Alone 4,000,000 4,000,000 <br /> Morgue Conversion 525,000 525,000 <br /> Construction/Repairs/Renovations 75,000 <br /> Furnishings <br /> Highway 70/Efland-OCES Stand Alone 50,000 <br /> Waterstone Orange Rural FD 50,000 <br /> Appropriation Total 2,895,000 450,000 1 2,825,000 2,000,000 320,000 4,000,000 9,145,000 1 6,000,000 <br />
