HVAC systems can result in more efficient buildings, even if they are technically more <br /> complex to operate and maintain. <br /> 2. Site and Facility Improvements -Projects in this category include modifications and/or <br /> additions to existing facilities to meet operational, safety, and cost-efficiency goals and to <br /> comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The primary goal of this <br /> ~l <br /> program is to address changing program functions and needs and/or to improve service <br /> delivery. These types of projects have limited impact on facility operating costs, as their <br /> ' : purpose is to upgrade or reconfigure space for more effective service delivery.

These facility operating cost projections <br /> include both routine facility maintenance (the cost of utilities, custodial services, <br /> preventive maintenance and other activities needed to keep a building operating) and an <br /> annualized amount of capital preservation that represents future costs that the City can <br /> expect to incur for building preservation and rehabilitation. <br /> L <br /> The General Fund portion of the Preservation and Maintenance and the Site and Facility <br /> Improvements categories will fund specific projects based on City Council policies and <br /> direction, the Facility Condition Reports, and immediate maintenance priorities and needs. <br /> r" <br /> Funded and Unfunded Programs <br /> Given the extent of unmet Public Buildings and Facilities needs, projects are separated into two <br /> ! distinct programs: the Six-Year Funded Program and an Unfunded Program. The Six-Year <br /> Funded Program is comprised primarily of projects in Preservation and Maintenance, and Site <br /> and Facility Improvements. These projects have originated from long-range master plans and/or <br /> ' City Council goals and policies, or have a high priority based on City operational needs. It <br /> , should be noted that the costs given for unfunded projects are only preliminary budget planning <br /> costs and are, for the most part, not based on detailed design cost estimates. <br /> C <br /> , <br /> City of Eugene 2006 - 2011 Capital Improvement Program <br /> 67 <br /> _ _ <br /> <br />
