PURPOSE: To review design options and associated project budgets for the Crisis Diversion
Facility, select a preferred option, and direct the Manager to finalize the design with the architect
and construction manager in order to prepare a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) for Board
consideration in late 2025.
BACKGROUND: The development of a Crisis Diversion Facility has evolved and progressed
over the last six (6) years:
2019 — The Board established The Orange County Behavioral Health Task Force (BHTF), and its
Crisis Diversion Facility Subcommittee. The Crisis Diversion Facility Subcommittee brought
together subject matter experts in behavioral health clinical services, emergency services, law
enforcement, and criminal justice with Orange County government.
2021 —The Subcommittee received approval from the Board of County Commissioners("BOCC")
in April 2021 to develop a recommendation for the Crisis Diversion Facility, along with $250,000
for pre-planning services. The County completed a request for qualifications (RFQ) process and
selected CPL Architecture to perform preliminary and schematic-level design and analysis
services for further development of the Crisis Diversion Facility.
2023 — The Board approved the FY 2023-33 Capital Investment Plan ("CIP"), which included
$2,047,155 for design services and $22,952,845 for construction for the Crisis Diversion Facility
in FY 2024-25.
2024—The Board approved $1,100,000 for land acquisition. CPL Architects was selected through
an RFP process to begin detailed design at a cost of$1,172,000.
2
2025 — In April 2025, the firm Gilbane was selected through an RFQ process to be the
Construction Manager at Risk for the project. Gilbane began working with CPL to advise on
constructability of the design, value engineer the design, and provide cost estimates through each
step of the design process. The Board agreed to pay Gilbane $179,928 for pre-construction
services.
At its April 15, 2025 Business meeting, the Board approved the purchase of a five-acre plot of
land close to UNC Hospital in Hillsborough for $1,350,000.
Original Scope of the Facility
The facility was originally programmed and designed to have two primary functions, with additional
space for coordinated discharge services and community resources.
Behavioral Health Urgent Care ("BHUC") — This is a service for individuals four (4) years or
older who are experiencing a behavioral health crisis related to a substance use, mental health
disorder, and/or an intellectual/developmental disability diagnosis. The BHUC offers a safe
alternative for up to 23 hours for triage, stabilization, and assessment and provides a diversion
from the hospital emergency departments and the detention center. The current design calls for
twelve (12) bays to serve patients: eight (8) bays for adults and four (4) bays for children.
Facility-Based Crisis and Non-hospital Medical Detox Services ("FBC") —This service offers
longer term therapeutic interventions and stabilization services for individuals experiencing mental
health crises as well as those struggling with substance use and addiction. The current design
calls for sixteen (16) beds, the maximum allowed under current regulations. Through the FBC
services, individuals will receive assessment, treatment, 24-hour medical supervision, case
management, and group and individual therapy in a residential setting. Individuals will spend time
with clinicians and peer support specialists, both individually and in groups, to identify strengths,
individual support, and treatment needs, and to make a plan for recovery. An important part of the
treatment process is to prepare individuals to return home and arranging for further treatments so
that individuals can continue their path towards recovery.
Coordinated Discharge and Resource Space—The original concept also included a peer living
area, a resource room with information about behavioral health resources, a large conference
room, and several offices for County staff to support the coordinated discharge planning for
patients of the Crisis Diversion Facility as well as resources to establish and maintain connections
in the community.
Current Available Budget:

Proiect Budget:
Gilbane, the Construction Manager at Risk, provided a budget estimate for the project in July 2025
of$25,700,000. However, that budget was incomplete as it did not include estimates for furniture,
fixtures and equipment (FFE), owner's contingency, or commissioning services. Given the
significant increase over the approved budget, the County asked CPL and Gilbane to provide
several options for reducing the scope of the facility.
Please note that the cost figures below do not include the cost of land acquisition or professional
services, which have already been encumbered or spent.

Tax Impact:
The County maintains a debt model that tracks the debt service and associated tax impacts
related to the 10 year Capital Investment Plan. The different design options were analyzed
through the debt model to identify impacts to the tax rate and the resulting total property tax bill
for a $400,000 home, as detailed below:

FINANCIAL IMPACT: No additional funding is necessary at this time. However, if a design option
is selected above the current project budget, additional funding would be needed when the Board
is presented with the guaranteed maximum price in late 2025.
ALIGNMENT WITH STRATEGIC PLAN: This item supports:
• GOAL 2: HEALTH COMMUNITY
OBJECTIVE 1. Improve harm reduction, prevention, and support services for adults and
children experiencing behavioral health issues, substance use disorder, and intellectual or
developmental disability.
OBJECTIVE 4. Reduce impacts and barriers for justice-involved children and adults
through deflection, diversion, therapeutic interventions, and re-entry support, including
housing.
RECOMMENDATION(S): The Manager recommends that the Board:
1.) Select an option from the alternative design options; and
2.) Direct the Manager to finalize the design with the architect and construction manager in
order to prepare a guaranteed maximum price (GMP) for Board consideration.

CRISIS DIVERSION SUBCOMMITTEE 23
• Subcommittee members (including law enforcement chiefs, EMS and behavioral
health experts) engaged in a ranking exercise based on the significance of each
of the building features on future operations and policy landscape:
1 . C Original design with simplified architectural features
2. B1 Includes coordinated discharge space with 12 BHUC bays
3. B Retains 12 BHUC bays
4. B2 Retains dual entrance but reduces BHUC bays to 6
• Option A was considered by the subcommittee as unacceptable because it only
has one entrance at the front of the building and lacks sufficient BHUC space
• Option B2 was also ranked low because it, along with Option A, has a reduced
number (6) BHUC observation bays
• Option C was ranked as most desirable because it contains all the CDF
subcommittee's recommended features
