BACKGROUND: The Sheriff's Department was moved to their present building at 144 East Margaret Lane in the early 1980's. Prior to that time the building had been used as office and clinic space for the Health Department. Growth in the Sheriff's Department necessitated additional space, so in the mid-1980's the Department finished out the attic of the building and uses it as office space for the Investigations Division as well as a staff briefing area for the Patrol Division. Recently;the Board of Elections department was relocated to the Court Street Annex,thereby making space available for much needed expansion in the Sheriff's Department. It is proposed that an architect be commissioned to analyze the building from a functional and structural perspective to ensure the space is being used most efficiently. Hakan/Corley is somewhat familiar with the operations of the Sheriff's Department through their work with the GSC and the SHS projects. In an effort to minimize the start-up time it is recommended that we contract with them to accomplish the following scope of work: 1. Recommend modifications to the existing floor plan which would use the space more efficiently and enhance traffic flow. 2. Analyze functions of the department and recommend placement within the building to promote efficient work flow; 3. Recommend modifications which are necessary to meet ADA code requirements. 4. Analyze growth patterns and make recommendations about future additions to the building; when they may be necessary, where an addition should be located, and the approximate square footage necessary to accommodate growth. Hakan/Corley is proposing to accomplis the above-referenced scope of work for a sum not-to- exceed$4,200. This would include approximately 60 hours of drafting, design and conference time. 2 The 1993-97 CIP provides$70,000 for minimum renovations in the Sheriff's office. Following review of the results presented by Hakan/Corley the County will be in a position to make an educated estimate of funding which will be needed to carry out the renovation portion of the project. Such funding would be brought forward for Board consideration as part of the 1994-98 CIP. RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends approval of a contract with Hakan/Corley for a sum not-to-exceed $4,200; and authorize the Chair to sign on behalf of the Board. • 3 hakan/corley & associates, inc. architects • engineers • planners May 25, 1993 Ms. Pam Jones, Director Purchasing and Central Services County of Orange P. O. Box 8181 Hillsborough, NC 27278 RE: Sheriffs Office Space Plan Study Hillsborough, NC Dear Pam: • Thank you for the opportunity to submit our proposal for space planning of the Sheriffs office in Hillsborough. During our tour with you and Sheriff Pendergrass, Ken Redfoot and I learned some of the problems that need resolving during this space plan study. Our study will begin with the existing building and an analysis of the best arrangement for staff relationships. The new area devoted to the Sheriffs operation will be the space recently vacated by the Board of Elections. We will also analyze the lobby, toilet, and office areas for accessibility by the handicapped. The exterior entrance also needs to meet code accessibility requirements. We will also present a preliminary proposed expansion of this-building to accommodate a larger operation, which will be a future project. 1 This proposal is not for final design/construction drawings at this time. Whenever we know how much of the plan the County can afford, we can give you a budget for Construction Documents and Administration. Our design cost to provide the above services, including four meetings, will be $4,200. This includes 60 hours of drafting, design and conference time. After you review this proposal and, if you have any questions, please give me a call. Sincerely, / ,,1%"/) ` Glenn D. Corley, A.I.A. GDC:esw M.J. HAKAN, P.E.
