• Provide a brief synopsis of the projects; <br /> • Cite where the previous discussions left off; <br /> • Identify any decisions/modifications that have been made to the projects since the last <br /> discussion; <br /> • Explore options that may exist to satisfy the need; <br /> • Identify funding options that may be available for the projects; <br /> • Cite imminent decision points and the preferred timetable for approvals. <br /> Background information from previous presentations has been provided in attachments to this <br /> abstract to enhance Board/staff collective recollections in preparation for the work session. <br /> It may be helpful for the Board to be aware of imminent decision points that will be necessary in <br /> order to move some of the more time sensitive projects to the next level of development. To <br /> the extent practicable, these have been listed below. It is important to note that these decision <br /> points are listed for the Board's information, rather than as an expectation of the work session <br /> outcome. <br /> Justice Facilities Expansion <br /> • Select desired design approach. Note that an overview of the Expanded Court Campus <br /> Master Plan based on preliminary information from Freeman-White Architects will be <br /> provided to the Board during this work session. However, more complete information will be <br /> presented by the architect during an upcoming Commissioner's meeting, at which time the <br /> Board may choose to select the preferred design approach. <br /> Space Study Projects <br /> • Confirm space study prioritization of projects, or modify projects as may be needed, such <br /> that staff may incorporate them into the upcoming CIP in funding years commensurate with <br /> Board wishes. <br /> Community College Satellite Campus in Orange County <br /> • Establish and begin process to site the facility <br /> • Determine preferred funding method for the State match <br /> FINANCIAL IMPACT: There are significant capital (and in many cases, operating) expenditure <br /> impacts associated with the projects to be discussed during this work session. Many of those <br /> will be addressed through an overall bond and alternative financing plan presented initially for <br /> the Board's information at the December 11, 2001 BOCC meeting. The overall plan for <br /> financing these projects will be laid out in detail in the 2002-2012 Manager's Recommended <br /> CIP, to be presented, reviewed, modified, and ultimately approved by the BOCC during the <br /> period March — June 2002. <br /> RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends that the Board receive the information and <br /> provide appropriate feedback and direction to staff. <br />
