The design work for 1811 <br />King Street is anticipated to cost $460,000. <br /> <br /> In addition, interior renovations and a roof replacement are required for the BHS <br />office at 2011 Queen Street. The remaining $3,000,000 of the appropriated funds will be <br />applied to the work at 2011 Queen Street. <br /> <br /> The renovations are happening concurrently with compliance updates and office <br />equipment upgrades. <br /> <br />Discussion: <br /> <br /> The ordinance proposed for City Council consideration appropriates $3,460,000 <br />from the Fund Balance of the Behavioral Healthcare Service Fund to the FY 2026 <br />Behavioral Healthcare Service Fund Budget. <br /> <br /> The remodel will enhance security and patient flow through the 1811 King Street <br />building. To achieve this, renovations and roof repairs are needed at 2011 Queen Street, <br />so programs and staff can be relocated. <br /> <br /> The roof replacement will address issues with leaking which cannot be adequately <br />addressed by simple repairs at 2011 Queen Street. The work at 2011 Queen Street will <br />also include HVAC and interior renovations. <br /> <br /> The improvements will extend the anticipated useful life of each building by at least <br />5 years and therefore can be capitalized. <br /> <br /> It is anticipated that additional funds will be appropriated for the performance or <br />completion of all work through adoption of a subsequent ordinance. <br /> <br />Financial impact: <br /> <br /> The Fund Balance of the Behavioral Healthcare Service Fund would be reduced <br />by $3,460,000. <br /> <br /> Revenues and expenditures in the FY 2026 Behavioral Healthcare Service Fund <br />budget would be increased by $3,460,000. <br /> <br /> Revenues and expenditures in the Municipal Facilities section of the FY 2026 <br />Capital Improvement Fund budget would be increased by $3,460,000. <br /> <br />Recommended Action: <br /> <br /> Adoption of the ordinance. <br /> <br />Next Steps Following Council Action: <br /> <br /> Finance will enter the necessary budget transfers. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
