G3 County Manager's Report — April 16, 2012 Ongoing Projects 1) The Wooten Company is working on the design of the paving project on Clyde Rhyne Road. They have been concentrating on securing the Storm Water Permit from the North Carolina Department of Natural Resources — Water Quality. There will be a requirement that the County secure around 6 acres of land for a conservation easement. The County and CCCC own property next to the Telecommunications Building that could be used for this purpose. We have sent CCCC a letter asking them to consider our request. If they agree we will then have to get consent from Wells Fargo who is the lien holder on the property. If this plan is approved then we are hopeful to have this project out to bid by June with construction during the summer. 2) Work on the Diving Pool at OT Sloan is complete. Some new work is being completed on the lap pool so that it will be ready to open in May. 3) General Services is getting ready to bid the new Chiller System for the Government Center. This project was delayed due to engineering issues with where the new unit will be placed. The location has now been worked out and bids should be out in the next week. The employees in the Government Center may have to deal without AC for a few days when the switch -out occurs. a) The notice to proceed has been given to the Contractor for the basement renovation project. We have had the preconstruction meeting with the Architect and the Contractor.
