Agenda Text
The Board is requested appropriate $150,000.00 to create a new Capital project for the Alliance Behavioral Healthcare Backfill Renovation Project and to authorize the County Manager to execute a contract with Perkins + Will (PW) to provide architectural services for the Alliance Behavioral Healthcare, Veteran Services Renovations inside the Health and Human Services Building, located at 414 E. Main Street, Durham for a fee $136,013.56. The total including architectural fees, reimbursables and contingency fees not to exceed the budget of $150,000.00. (See Attachment 1, Pages 1-8).
The project involves renovating the former Alliance Behavioral Healthcare and Veteran Services spaces located within the Health and Human Service Facility. The existing Alliance behavioral space including lobby, will be subdivided to create two, distinct spaces, one for Veteran Services, and one for Childcare services, each with their own secured access points. The renovated area will also include expanding a small portion of Environmental Health. The existing Veteran Services space once vacated will be renovated to accommodate the reduced staffing needs for Alliance Behavioral. The total interior area to be renovated is 11,000 square feet. To the degree possible, the work will include utilizing the existing demountable glass partitions, interior workstations and some centralized conference rooms with AV capabilities similar to those of the original project. Completion of this project will relocate Child Services from a leased space on Briggs avenue. The renovation will improve space usage, efficiency and increase the ability to serve more citizens.
The services to be rendered under this contract amendment include preparation of design drawings and specifications, conducting a pre-bid conference, bid evaluation, construction administration, inspection and project closeout. For MWBE participation (see attachment 2)
The $150,000 will be funded from a Debt Service Fund fund balance appropriation and transferring these funds to the Pay as You Go County Contribution Fund.
Alignment with Strategic Plan: The implementation of this project addresses Goal 4 of the Strategic Plan as the sustainable building aspects of the facility increase energy efficiency. The overall building concept of having multiple services under one roof addresses Goal 5 by providing more efficient service delivery and better customer service.
