BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: December 3, 2013
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Don Turner
SUBJECT: Sheriff's New Building - Shalimar
DEPARTMENT: Facility Maintenance
BCC DISTRICT: ALL
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request for BCC direction regarding the construction of the new
Sheriff's building in Shalimar.
BACKGROUND: At the November 5, 2013, BCC meeting the Board directed that a new 10,000
+ s.f. building be constructed at the Sheriff's Shalimar compound. Further direction is requested
from the Board regarding the assignment of the project. The Board is reminded that delaying the
completion of the new building results in an additional $10,500/month in lease costs for the
Sheriff's Investigations Unit.
OPTIONS: Listed below are options for this project:
1. Assigning the new building to Lord and Son as additional scope to their existing contract will
likely result in a shorter project completion time than either bidding the project out as a new
project or self performing it through Facilities Maintenance.
2. Self performing the project through Facilities Maintenance would likely result in double-digit
cost savings for the project, but take longer to complete as FM has many other responsibilities
that may cause staff to be pulled from the project for a time.
3. Bidding the project out will add 3-4 months to the likely project completion time line and
there's no evidence to suggest that there would be any appreciable cost savings for doing it.
4. Lord and Son and FM could do a joint project where L&S would deliver the building shell
complete and FM would self perform all MEP and interior finishes. This plan would have a
lower total cost than completely outsourcing the project and have a shorter completion time
line than completely self performing it.
Note: Pricing for these options was unavailable prior to the agenda submission deadline, but
shall be provided prior to the December 3rd BCC meeting.
RECOMMENDATIONS: Request for staff direction regarding the construction of the new
Sheriff's building in Shalimar.
