~. <br />~ Marion County Racilities Master Plan <br />~ INTRODUCTION <br />] This report analyzes the types of services provided by lvfarion County in the year 1993 and projects <br />what will be required to perform increased services and space requirements in 2013. The base data <br />~ of services and space usage was established for the year 1993. Estimated projections were developed <br />for the ndmber of staff positions and area required to perfoRn these same secvices in the year 2013. <br />This projection is based on demographics County wide and represents an average annual compound <br />~ increase in population over that twenty year period. This report will address: <br />• Base data and establish projected needs. <br />• Altemative plans identifying advantages and disadvantages to each. <br />• Project estimated construction cost estimates for each alternative plan. <br />• Recommend a specific pfan for implementation. <br />Planning Criteria <br />Future space requirements; population, demographic changes and projected staff requirements were <br />evaluated. Projections for workstation standards were developed to provide a uniform means of <br />determining space needs. A comparison was made between staff requirements and population <br />projections. This comparison was used to refine the net space requirements projections. Evaluation <br />was made of spaces which could be shared and location of services which needed to be group <br />together. This evaluation further re6ned projected space requirements and future needs of the County. <br />This material is found in Chapter B. <br />The existing County building inventory was analyzed based on its current function, condition and <br />amenities. This analysis was performed on facilities which aze operated by the County and have <br />direct impact in providing services to the public. These facilities are primarily grouped in three area <br />1°cahons; DOWNTOWN, CENTER STREET and CORRECTIONS STTES. This material is found <br />in Chapter C. <br />Based on the projected needs for County services over the next twenty years and using current <br />building inventory as a base, three alternative plans were developed. The plans address future space <br />needs and recommends a time and location that those needs should be implemented. Advantages and <br />disadvantages are also identified for each of the plans. This material is found in Chapter D. <br />An estimated construction cost estimates for the three alternative plans aze calculated at cost in <br />toda}~s (1993) dollars. This material is found in Chapter E. The Consultant's recommended plan for <br />Counry development is found in Chapter F. <br />Page i <br />
