2 The Court Street Annex Facility houses the Juvenile Justice and Adult Probation Offices. The renovation includes flooring replacement, interior relocations, painting, facility upgrades to meet accessibility needs, security and more effective use of the space. The Richard E. Whitted Building Health Department medical clinic waiting room is an underutilized space that could be converted into (4) offices. This work includes the installation of walls, adding carpet tiles and installing white noise / gray machines to ensure privacy. An underutilized storage room in the Whitted Medical clinic would replace the current waiting area. The new waiting area will be next to the entry to the clinic and would improve way-finding, clinic flow and security of medical supplies and control access to employee areas. The 2nd and 3rd floor connectors between the Richard E Whitted building A and B windows are past their end of life expectancy and are leaking. This project will replace the windows and shades which will increase energy efficiency and moisture control. FINANCIAL IMPACT: The construction contract with C.T.
