Summary & Background: The approved construction project in progress approved by the BOC as Agenda Item #24-0797 on November 24, 2024, responds to the need to expand delivery of Health and Human Services at the property located at 4700 North Point Pkwy. This construction project will allow for services currently being offered in either leased facilities or facilities that have exceeded their useful life expectancy to be relocated to a modern, County-owned facility.
The existing facility is a two-story 108,000 (+/-) sq. ft. building on North Point Parkway, a former data center. Based on preliminary test fits, the services included at this location will be the Department of Health (State - Administration, nursing, environmental, dentistry, traveling nursing programs, vital records, and W.I.C) Behavioral Health - Youth, Adult, and Developmental Disabilities, Department of Real Estate and Asset Management (DREAM), Emergency Management Agency, Superior Court DUI Services, Senior Services Programming with future inclusion of wrap around support services.
The total project costs approved of $15,417,450.00 included an original Owner Controlled Contingency amount of $1,069,441.00. To date, approved scope of work Credits and VE options accepted have yielded a credit of $393,751.00 for a total available Owner Controlled contingency of $1,463,192.00 (see details below). The Owner has approved changes to the scope of work that have exhausted the available Owner Controlled contingency. Additional changes to the scope of work identified exceed the available contingency amount, thus requiring this request for additional project funding to complete this construction project.
