Commissioners establish a mechanism for ongoing periodic review of the master facilities plan, to insure that it is appropriately updated on a recurring basis. The work of the steering committee would not have been possible without the dedicated efforts of the seven subcommittees, each of which labored tirelessly to bring together and organize in coherent form the information concerning facilities, operations, finances, service demands and other factors, and the specific subcommittee recommendations regarding each set of facilities. The Commissioners wisely decided to include on the steering committee and each of the subcommittees essentially equal representation from the private sector and from county staff, and this arrangement proved to be very workable and productive. The steering committee has been greatly assisted in its work by Randy Curtis, Bob McCune and Traci Lulay of the county General Services Department, who have provided staff work of the highest quality on an on-going basis throughout the 10 months of the committee's existence. In addition, dozens of employees from each county department and agency have participated in and contributed much to the committee's work. This report contains separate Findings and Recommendations with respect to each of the seven subcommittee reports which were submitted to the steering committee. In addition, the Public Works Department, which is now housed in the Senator Building and was initially grouped with the Downtown Facilities, proposes to consolidate most public works operations to the Public Works-Roads site on Silverton Road. Thus, a separate set of Findings and Recommendations has been developed for Public Works. The final section of this report sets forth the steering committee's Conclusions and Recommendations regarding the prioritization of facilities development. PAGE 8 ksj/cd/Facilities.Int 04/07/95
