anchor Description
This level of effort project is intended to provide a structured process to ensure that all recreation indoor pool facilities are refurbished through repair or replacement of facility components. A facility assessment will be conducted to evaluate the level of repair or replacement for each facility and create a program of requirements with an associated construction cost estimate.
anchorEstimated Schedule
The Department of Recreation will identify the facilities and scope of the work through a facility assessment prior to the design and construction process. Projects will be prioritized based on facility assessment results and programmatic needs. Refurbishment for the Kennedy Shriver Aquatic Center is under construction, and planning for the Olney Indoor Swim Center will start in FY27, with construction planned to begin in FY29.
anchorCost Change
Cost updated to reflect a new implementation cost and schedule.
anchor Justification
Many County indoor pool facilities have not been updated in many years. This project will ensure that: 1) the County's capital investments at indoor swim facilities are protected by maintaining the department's infrastructure, 2) all new and required construction codes are addressed and implemented, 3) critical equipment and building systems are overhauled or replaced prior to failure, and 4) reorganization of internal space is completed to ensure that space is fully utilized based on the community's needs for programs and services.
anchorOther
Notice identifying the specific recreation projects that will be refurbished must be provided to the Council at least 60 days before any funding is obligated or spent. The notice to Council must include the scope of work, cost estimate, and expenditure schedule for planning, design, and supervision, construction and other costs by fiscal year.
