anchor Description
This project provides for the renovation of, or improvements to, Bethesda parking facilities. This is a continuing program of contractual improvements or renovations, with changing priorities depending upon the type of deterioration and corrections required, that will protect or improve the physical infrastructure to assure safe and reliable parking facilities and to preserve the County's investment. The scope of this project will vary depending on the results of studies conducted under the Facility Planning Parking project. Included are annual consultant services to provide investigation, analysis, recommended repair methods, contract documents, inspection, and testing, if required.
anchorCost Change
Cost increase is due to the addition of FY31 and FY32 to this Level of Effort project.
anchor Justification
