: 1 . Marion County Facilities Master Plan 5.0 Alteraative Staff and Space Requirements Projections .~ ~ T'he department projected staff requirements addressed in Section 3.0 are reported on the Staff - and Space Requirements Detail Sheets in Appendix A for each position by department and function. As previously mentioned, the departments have assumed a greater demand for services ~ due to faster growth than projected by the MWVCOG. To compare the department's staff requirements projections to the MWVCOG projection levels, three altemative projections were developed as shown in the calculations provided in Exhibit 5. - The department staff projections, per the Detail Sheets in Appendix A, are listed as "Projection _ A" in Exhibit 5, increasing from 787 staff in 1993 to 1,099 staff in 2013. Summarizing the net, usable space required of each department based on the detailed space analysis, a total of 238,661 ' NSF are required in 1993 -- increasing to 309,725 NSF in 2013. . The department staff projections suggest a slightly faster rate of staff growth than total - population growth when compared to the MWVCOG population estimates. A ratio of 3.26' _ staff per 1,000 population increases gradually tb 3.58 staff per 1,000 population by 2013. "Projection B" assumes that the current 3.26 staff per 1,0~0 population ratio is maintained throughout the projection period, resulting in growth to 999 staff by 2013 (100 fewer staff than _ . projected by the departments). If one assumed the same ratio of staff ro space required _ (indicated as the "adjusted net area factor"), a toral of 281,621 net square feet would be required by 2013 -- 28,104 NSF less than Projection A. This is roughly equal to the total amount of - space on the first floor level of the Courthouse. _ "Projection C" and "Projection D" assume that the current ratio of staff to population remain - constant through 2013; however Projection C assumes that the population grow at an average _ annual rate of 2.00% compounded (versus the MWVCOG projections of 1.20% over the 1992- 2013 term). Projection D assumes a population increase of 2.25% average annual growth - through 2013. Projecaon C results in a total of 1,169 staff (70 staff more than projected by the _ departments) and 329,577 NSF (19,852 NSF higher than Projection A.) ~ T'6e cucrent year (1993) population is acmally listed at 241,500 to reFlut the end of year 1992 population; nearer the estimated popula~ion for the 'currznt' year.
