$2,696,000

Note: Certain work packages will be completed after the end of FY25 but purchase orders will need to be encumbered in FY25 to ensure on-time delivery & installation, and thus are included in the incremental ask.

Justification:

This project is divided into 4 parts to address key operational and infrastructure needs. The first part focuses on the maintenance and renovation of existing Precinct One Community Centers and buildings. The second and fourth part involves renovating and upgrading various facilities to ensure safety, regulatory compliance, and enhanced functionality. The third part will replace fences to maintain security and aesthetic appeal in public areas. These strategic investments are vital for maintaining infrastructure, enhancing service delivery, and supporting the community's evolving needs.

Alternatives and Engagement:

Failing to proceed with these four projects would have negative impacts on operational efficiency, infrastructure integrity, and community services. Neglecting the renovation of facilities will result in deteriorating buildings that fail to meet safety and compliance standards, compromising the usability and safety of these spaces. Finally, without replacing fences, the security and aesthetics of public spaces will deteriorate, increasing the risk of vandalism and reducing the community’s sense of safety and pride in their surroundings.
