The con- clusion of these two phases is that a combined building for Saline County and the City of Salina, Kansas is feasible from the standpoint of - I I need, legal requirements, I ownership and operation, I location. I Phase III is an exploration of the desirability of a joint facility for the two governments. I In Phase I it was determined that there is a need for larger and more efficient facilities for both governments. I Assuming, therefore, that each Government will embark on a program of facility improvements, there are three possible courses: 1. Two separate and distinct buildings, unrelated to each other; I 2. Two separate buildings conveniently related to each other on the same site; I 3. A single building housing both governments. I In order to determine whether a Joint Governmental Center would be desirable, Phase III studies each of the three possible building com- binations described above regarding: I space requirements construction costs I operating costs I I I Finally, as a conclusion of this Phase III, a recommended course of action is outlined. I 3 I I I I I I I I I I S?ACE REQUIREdENT STANDA.RDS I The following three sheets are a collection Qf typical snace requirement drawings of typical situations in the two Governwents. I I The spaces shovm a~e mini- mum standards, and ar~not iritended to be final state- ments of the exact facili. ties needed for a given activity or piece of equip- ment. I I The spaces would be varied as required for incorpor- a tion vii thin a specific planning situation. I I I 4 I I I I' I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I T\(PICi.L ti."-r _ ': ---......

Should be convenient to the Public. It is important that the County Clerk be on a ~irst floor location, and the Clerk should be adjacent to the Commissioners Room, therefore, the Commissioners Room should be located on the first floor. Departmental Personnel: 3 men Visitors: Some days there are no visitors at all, and on other days there may be as high as 50 persons. Occasionally there are as many as 50 visitors at one time. The County Attorney should have an office convenient to the Commissioners. If the County population reaches 100,000. there would need to be a "Counselor" to the Commissioners in addition to the County Attorney. Some time in the remote future it could be possible that the County would change to the County Manager system of government. It is possible that the City and County Commissioners could share the same meeting room. If this were done, the County Commissioners would require 3 private offices, (one each). County Commissioners meet on Monday-Wednesday and Friday now. It is possible that in the future they might meet daily.

I I I I 48 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I GENERAL USE AREAS Dead Storage Vaults Both Governments accumulate records which must be kept in perpetuity, but which, due to age are seldom, if ever, referred to. At the present these records are using valuable space in current record vaults, or are stored in spaces where they are vulnerable ~o fire or theft or both. A definite size for such storage space was not determined in interviews with Department Heads. The size of 1,000 square feet was arbitrarily established for each of the two separate Governments. This space, it is assumed, would not be materially reduced by a combined building. When a building project is authorized, the Architect should develop more specific size(s) for such storage space(s) in conference with department heads who would use it. This space may be located in the basement. Wall Thicknesses In this Architect's experience the structural system, walls, and other void spaces in a building account for from 4 to 6% of the total building area. Also experience has shown that the precise area of individual rooms is often not possible to achieve due to other plan requirements, the result being a slight increase in the actual total area over the stated program requirements. For these reasons, in determining the Departmental Space Requirements, a factor of 10% was added to the Departmental Space requirement to account for wall thicknesses, etc. Computer Room The letter from the National Cash Register Company, reproduced on page 54 states that a room of 15' x 20' would be required to accommodate this facility. This area, 300 square feet is included as a general space re- quirement on the building area statement~. A slight increase in area is shown for the combined project. Building Information, Telephone Switchboard and Postal Center Essentially the same floor area would be required for this (these) area(s) whether it was serving a single government or the combination. The area(s) included are arbitrary. 49 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Mechanical Equipment Room, Custodial and General Storage Experience has shown that these spaces vary slightly as the area of a building increases. The larger the building, the smaller the percent- age of the total building area required to accommodate these services. It has been found that areas of these spaces in buildings designed by this Architect range from about 1.5% in a building of 175,797 square feet, to 7% in a building of 19,458 square feet. There are other factors, (amount and type of equipment, location of the room in the building, type of construction, and others), that affect the size requirement for these buildings, and it is difficult to est- ablish a clear-cut "trend". In a publication of the USPHS, the Mechanical and Custodial areas varied from 65 for a building of 11,800 square feet, to 3.5% for a building of 74,630 square feet. With the above information as a background, we have used a factor of 5% of the building area in the smaller buildings, and 4% of the building area for the combined building. Lobby Space A public buLlding requires a certain amount of Lobby Space to provide for such things as a Building Directory, Information Desk, Phone Booths, Elevator Lobby, and to present a symbolical expression of the importance of this building to the community. There are no "rules" to define the amount of space required for a Lobby, but the equivalent of a space 20 feet by 50 feet was used for each of the separate buildings, and only slightly larger, 30 feet by 50 feet, for the combi~ed building. . 50 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I i.IISCELlANEOUS POSSIBLE COST SAVINGS 51 I I I I' I POOSIBLE OIANGES IN POLICY OR ORGANIZATION The most effective way to lower initial construction on a building project is to reduce the area of building. As is clear from the accompanying information in this report, the only area reductions that are readily achieved are in the general use spaces. By effecting such apace reductions, it is estimated that substantial savings can be realized in construction costs. I There are other ways that could possibly result in less building area re- quirements, but in order to include them in the project they would necess- itate a comaon agreement be~een both governing bodies as well as the De- partment Heads that would be involved. And in sOIae cases, perhaps even special legiSlation would be required before such combinations would be possible. I The fOllowing possible changes in organization and/or operation might ef- fect a reduction of required space: I Use a common Drafting Room to serve both County Engineer and City Engineer Use a c~n aeeting room to serve both County Commissioners and City Commissioners, (if this were done, the County CommissiGn- ers would each need a private office.) (A possible objection to this proposal would be a tendency to "blur" the distinction between the two Boards.) Use a Computer Room with electronic equipment for possible reduced area in pertinent departments o.f the County and City, (see page 54~ Establish a Duplication Department to serve all departments of both governments for work such as mimeograph, multilith, photostat, "Ozalid", "Xerox", etc. (See page 30). Combine certain Departments with similar functions in both Govern~ ments. Use common Court Room for City Court and Police Court. I I I I I I The above are not recommendations, but are suggest~ points for fur~her study only. I I I I I Even though it may not be desirable at this time to combine any of the activities described above, it is possible that 20 or 30 years from now circumstances might make such an action very important. If a combined building is constructed there is more latitude permitted for variations in organization and/or cooperation than with two separate facilities. S2 I. I EFFECTS OF AUTOMATIOO' I The following pages of the report are a copy of the letter received by the Architect from the National Cash Register Company in response to an inquiry concerning possible savings through the use of computers and/or Electronic Data processing. I I From the information presented in the letter it appears that at this time, the cost of the computer system would probably be approximately that of the salaries of the persons replaced by the computer. It does not appear, from the limited study of this report, that a sizeable savings could be effected at the present time by using a computer for both city and county needs. I I However, the availability of a computer to the city and county governments would undoubtedly result in the departments being able to perform addition- al services or operations from what is now possible. The desirability of a computer might be due to its ability to perform more services and at faster speeds than is now possible, rather than due to any distinct cost savings. I I It can be safely said that the desirability of a computer system from a cost standpoint will increase in future years, due to population increase and to the probability of increase in governmental functions. Therefore, while its present desirability might be questionable, its use in the future should be planned for in a building program. I I Potential future use of a computer could best be utilized in a combined city - county building where the cost of a computer could be offset thru use by bQth city and county, and where convenience to both governments would be possible. Combined use of a computer with separate buildings on one site would not be as convenient, but would probably be workable if the two buildings were very near, or were connected by an enclosed walkway. Combined use of a computer if two buildings on two separate sites were constructed would be extremely difficult, and could con- ceivably never get past the decision as to which building would house the computer.

"" A i i "I: ~1ay 15, 1964 Anderson-Johnson Architects 137~ South Santa Fe Avenue Salina, Kansas Deflr Sirs: By your request, this lettoer outlines some aspects of potential computer applications relative to joint Salina City ~ Saline County utilization. Speaking in terms of equipment ~ith which we are famil- iar, we would propose a s~all, low cost computer syste~ such as the ~CR "390". SYSTEM DESCRIPTIO~: This completely flexible system allows four means of data input including keyboard entries, ~agnetic striped ledgers, plKhed paper tape and punched cards. It has four means of data output including all types of print out formats, enco~ed magnetic ledgers, punched paper tape and punched cards. Tne set U~ time for individual applic~tions including changing programs and inserting forms in the carriage takes only a few minutes. The type of print out allo\.!ed on the 26" carriage in- cludes simultane~'~s preparation of all kincs of statements, checks, invoices, journals and ledgers. The internal electronic programs automatically do arith- metic functions including percentages and ratios, ~ake co~~arisons and decisions, do all kinds of sorting and distributions, control all units including the movable carriage and printer, ~a6netic ledger reader, punched tape reader and recorder, and punched card reader. APPLICATIONS: Some of the applications th~ are now being used by various local governments inclued: 1 - Utility Billing: Including post card bills and consumer ledgers and allowing any variation of step billing~th complete accumu- lation of classification totals. -:;10=; -tS I,:"~) ".: ". c,;~ff' '~-'r; :"'""STdt., \'!'tH'(1 .\~, ,: t.;'., ~~:...._8"" Kl,"'./~:.,', '>1..:.; !... _'.,' HOb..

As such, there are a number of aged and/or handicapped persons who visit the various departments 'from time to time. Most of the Department Heads interviewed expressed concern that the hand- icapped were not being fully served when their departments were located on other than the first floor. For this reason, most of them requested that their department be located on the first floor. Several of those who consented to a location on the second floor suggested that it would be satisfactory if there were an elevator. I I The average able-bodied person will usually walk one flight of stairs ra- ther than wait for an elevator. However, if a governmental building is to serve all patrons, it is advisable that a building of more than one level should have at least one elevator. This one elevator could serve the handicapped and would be a great asset for deliveries of supplies and equipment to the second floor. I I I I I I I I I I I If the building were designed for future vertical expansion it would be mandatory that space be provided for elevator service in the expanded building. An elevator of 3,000# capacity, 200 feet per minute, with three stops, (Basement, First & Second), would cost an estimated $30,5.50. This eleva- tor should adequately serve either the City Hall, the Courthouse, or the Combined Building. Therefore, with the two separate buildings, there would be a combined to- tal elevator expenditure of $61,100. For the Combined Building the cOst would be $30,550. or a saving of $30,550. This is included in the build- ing cost figures. 56 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I S~~~RY OF BUILDING AREAS County Courthouse Ci ty Hall Combined Facility 57 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I SUMMARY OF DEPARTMBNTAL SPACE R~IREMENTS (Areas to nearest 10 sq.:tt.)

However, if it were included as a part of this project, the following information is pertinent to the funds a- vailable for construction. 60 I I I I I I I I I FEDERAL Ml\TOIING FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR PLANNING AND cniSTRUCTION OF AN EMERGENCY OPERATING CENTER The fOllowing paragraphs are quoted from pages 3 and 4 of the publication entitled: Guide For The EMERGENCY OPERATING CENTER Program ~ Prepared by: Department of Defense Office of Civil Defense Region Six, Denver July, 1963 4. E1..IGIBLE COSTS A. Federal contributions ....y be made toward the following costs in connection with the construction o.t an emergency operating center: I I I I I I I I I I (1) Hiring a qualified private architect-engineering firm (or individual architect or engineer) for conducting a prelimi- nary survey, preparing advanced planning report, inclUding rough cost estimates, the preparation of final drawings and specifications, etc., and inspection during construction. In lieu of a private firm or private individuals, a State or local government archi teet or engineer may be employed. When design of fallout protection is necessary, and where no member of the firm or individual has qualLfied at one of the OCO two-week courses in Fallout Shelter Analysis, the firm should e~loy, on a consulting basis, such an individual who has qualUied. (2) PreParing advanced planning report, conducting a preliminary survey, including rough cost estimates, to determine the feasibility of undertaking such civil defense con$truction. Upon a determination that it i. the desire and the intent of the State or local government to construct an emergency operat- ing center, whether construction is undertaken immediately or within a reasonable time, Federal contributions may be made toward the cost of preparation of the final plans and speci- fications required for such construction. Where a multiuse structure which includes provision for an emergency operating center i. planned, contributions may be made toward the cost of onlrathose plans and specifications which are necessary and essent 1 to the emergency operating center portion of such multiuse structure. (3) Construction, where the structure includes only the emergency operating cent,er; modifications and improvement of existing buildings, or underground space where structurally feasible and economically practicable. (oeD shall determine feasibility and practicability.) Utilities, site preparation, grading, parking facilities, and access roads are eligible costs when determined by OCD to be reasonable and not disproportionate to the remaining cost of the center. 61 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I (4) Costs relative to the construction o~ an emergency operating center in the basement o~ a multiuse 8tructure, such as a new city hall or county courthou8e. The Federal government will contribute one-hal~ toward the construction cost of the center, only. In determining the cost o~ the emergency operating center portion of the multiuse structure, computation will be on the basis of ,additional (incremental) costs of constructing the emergency operating center as a part o~ the multiuse structure. Such costs may include the necessary site prep- aration, excavation, ~ooting8 and foundations, utilities and alternate utilities, grading, soil stabilization, and other costs to the extent that they are over and above the normal cost8 ~or the multiuse structure concerned. To determine the portion o~ the building that may be considered a part at the emergency operating center for purpo8es of contribution~, the following two-part test shall be used: a. Tbe space involved must be within the protected portion of the building (the protection required is set forth in paragraph 10.B. below); ~ b. The space must be assigned as working space for an element o~ the State or local government having emergency operat- ing responsibilities, living space (dormitories, kitchens, washrooms, etc.) for the staff of such elements, or space necessary for supporting functions of the center in an emergency, such as communications, air-conditioning and heating equipment, in~irmary, storage of emergency-operat- ing records, corridors, storerooms, and other essential uses. B. Only one-half of the extra cost of constructing an emergency operat- ing center in a multiuse structure is eligible for matching funds. The State or local government, in addition to paying the remaining one-hal~ o~ such costs, must bear all of the costs resulting from the addition of space and facilities for nonemergency operating center use. Architect-engineer's cost estimates shall be prepared so as to separate completely the additional costs of constructing the emergency operating center as a part of the multiuse building from the normal construction costs of such a building. C. Contributions are available for obtaining and installing such equip- ment and supplies as are necessary and essential to the development and maintenance of the emergency operational capability of the emergency operating center. Included are: ventilating and air- conditioning systems; kitchen equipment; toilets and emergency sew- age disposal systems; reliable emergency water supply systems; infirmary equipment: bunks, lockers, desks, tables, chairs, ~iling cabinets, map and status boards, telephones; up to 30-day supply of fuel; and similar essential items. 62 I I I I I I I I I I, I I I I I I I I I D. Contributions are available ~or obtAining ration-type rood sur~icient for 14 days' operation of the center when fully staffed. E. The ~ollowing related costs are also eligible for Federal con- tributions under other programs as indicated: (1) The cost or communications equipment, including installation, which is required for the emergency operating center. (2) Warning equipment is eligible for contributions. 5. INELIGIBLE COSTS A. No Federal contribution can be made for the procurement of land, and the value of any contributed by the StAte, or any political subdivision thereof, must be excluded from the computation of the State's share of the cost of the project. B. No Federal contribution can be made for the development of un- protected operating racilities, or for space, facilities, or equip- ment that does not increase the civil defense emergency operating capability o~ the government concerned. C. No Federal contributions are available for the replacement of rations after the initial 14 days' supply for the center. 63 I I I I I I I I 'I I I I I I I I I I I OUTLINE SPECIFICATIONS 64 I I OUTLINE SPECIFICATIONS I The following specifications are given only for the purpose of indication of the quality of construction assumed in arriving at a unit cost. The specifications are not intended as recommendations for construction. How- ever, these specifications are felt to be reasonable for this type of building.

Two separate build- ings. 2. Two buildings, same site. 3. Combined building 66 I I I I I I I I I i I I I I I I I I I I On the following pages are estimates of comparative construction costs for separate City and County Building!i and for a combined facility. Construction costs are computed using square foot costs derived from the Marshall Valuation Service Manual. Under this system, a basic s~uare foot cost is given for the specific type of building occupancy, type of construction, and quality of materials and equipment. This base square foot cost is then refined by applying a factor related to the building size and perimeter area. To apply this system a size and amount of perimeter must be assumed. For the purposes of this report is was assumed for all cases, that the buildings would be two story and that the amount of exterior wall area would be equiva- lent to a rectangular shape where the length is twice that of the width. l. 67 I I I COST ESTIMATE Police Station Area Required: Assumed Size: 24,940 square feet 2 floors, 79 x 158, Perimeter 474' I Base square foot cost. .

If the basement is assumed to be one half as expensive to construct as an upper floor, the adjusted figures would be $21.00 per square foot for upper floors and $10.50 ~or the basement floor. 73 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I On the following sheets are project cost estimates related to the various sites. The sites to which the costs are related correspond to the sites studied in Phase II with the following exceptions, SITE B - Site B studied in Phase II presumed the coapletion of a complete civic center along with City~ounty office facilities. Therefore, Site B for Phase III has been altered to allow for construction of City-County facilities independent of the Civic Center. However, Memorial Hall still must be removed to allow for construction at new City and County facilities. SITE E - The shape has been slightly changed to remove the 'jog at the north side of the site. The following assumptions were made in arriving at the project costs: 1. Value at property to be acquired is estimated at four times the assessed value of land and improvements (same method as used for Phase II). 2. Value of property presently owned by either City or on land value only, and was computed from values of It is assumed that these properties could be sold, obtained for these amounts. County is based adjacent properties. or value otherwise 3. Architects fee were assumed to be 6% of the building cost. 4. Parking requirements: City Building - 90 spaces, (55 atfstreet) County Building - 110 spaces, (65 offstreet) City and County on same site - 180 spaces (100 affstreet) City Police - 15 offstreet Paving per space: Area per car: $300. 400 square feet 5. Where two buildin9s occured on one site, site costs were allocated on the basis of total building area: City Building. . . . . 37,950 sq. ft. County Building. . . . 49,320 sq. ft. . . . 43.5% 56.5% Total. . 87,270 sq. ft. . .100.0% 6. Where two separate buildings are considered, one half the area ~ the City~ounty Health department was included in the area of each build- ing. This was done for the purpose of cost comparison purposes only. In actual practice, the Health Department would probably be placed in one of the buildings and the other government charged for one half of the cost. 74 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I ~ I I I I I 7. Building costs for a combined building were allocated on the basis of departmental areas. Ci ty Departmental Area. .. 28,430 sq. 'ft. .

This is to cover walks and landscaping. 9. It is assumed that the salvage value of buildings on property obtain~d would be equal to the cost of clearing the site. 10. In order to meet the parking requirements for several of the sites, parking was Shown on the Memorial Hall property. It was considered possible for this to be accomplished in this this parking would also be of benefit to Memorial Hall. In these cases, no additional land cost was considered for these parking areas. 11. The City Police Building has been considered for four different sites. The actual site selected would depend upon the site(s) selected for the City and County office facilities. All sites are located near the exist- ing County Jail. 75 SEPARATE SITES - --.

Therefore, one of the fOllOWing would occur. 1. A double move for the coli. ty (at a cost of upwards of 20,000. 2. A possible two year delay in the city building. 3. An additional expense to construct one of the buildings around the existing Courthouse of ap- proximately $15,000. In view of the limited size of the site, provision for an additional floor should be included. This is estimated to be $7,000 for the City Building and $9,000 for the County Building. * Assumes property to be sold or value otperwise realized for this amount. 79 - "-J '-.J ~ r--1 r - . - .

($11,000. ~or city and 14,000 ~or County). This could be avoided . by razing the courthouse be~ore construction o~ the new raci1ity. However, it is estimated that the County would spend upwards or $20,000 additional ror the double move. In view or the limited size or the site, provision ror an additional floor should be included.

Sources used for study of these items were statistics compiled for the Salina Schools by Mr. Fred Brockman, estimates prepared by the Salina Janitor Service, estimates of Mechanical Engineers, and the 1962 Office Building Experience Exchange Report of the National Association of Building Owners and Managers. I I Review of these sources indicates that: I 1) Operating costs are proportional to the area of the building. 2) The ~ pe~ square ~ for operation is very nearly the same for a build ng of 45,000 square foot as for 90,000 square foot. I 3) Possible savings in operating costs for a combined facility are therefore possible only thru reduced size of the combined facility. I I Comparison of required areas indicates that 1,320 square feet less are re- quired for a combined building than for separate buildings. The 1962 Office Building Experience Exchange Report indicates operating costs to be $1.50 per square root. Therefore a saving of $1,980 should be realized each year.

General Information - A central switchboard for a building of the size and complexity of the City Hall, Courthouse, or a Combin- ation Building is recommended for the most efficient service.

Below is described certain suggested items which might be included in such an administrative agreement. Certainly the framing of this agreement and certain of the details in this agreement would necessarily need be refined and shaped to suit the individual desires of the County and the City Commission. I I I I The County Commission and the City Commission (referred to as Commissions) would authorize the formation of the Saline County-Salina Joint Building Commission, (referred to as Building Commission). The Building Commission would be assigned the following powers and duties: I I 1. Select architect and engineers for preparation of preliminary plans and cost estimates adequate for bond election and bond sale commit- ments, and would be authorized to approve necessary payments to Architects, Engineers and other Consultants. I. I 2. Review preliminary plans and estimates of the building and submit plans and estimates for approval of the "COMMISSIONS". I 3. On approval of the "COMMISSIONS" the Building Commission would hold informational meetings with citizens groups precedent to bond elections. I I 4. Upon approval of the "COMMISSIONS" the Building Commis~ion would advertise for bond sale and submit bond bids to the "COMMISSIONS" for review and approval. 5. The Building Commission would appoint and authorize three appraisers to make a three approach real estate appraisal of the site recom- mended by the Building Commission and approved by the "COMMISStONS". I I 6. The Commissions would conduct separate bond elections. 7. The Building Commission would propose a purchase price of real estate and on the approval of the "COMMISSIONS", the Building Commission would purchase the real estate in the title of the Building Commission. I I I 8. On approval of the "COMMISSIONS", the Building Commission would authorize the architect and engineer to proceed with the preparation of final construction plans and specifications and cost estimates. 9. The Building Commission would review the plans and specifications prepared by the architects and engineers and submit to the "COMMISSIONS" for approval. I 106 I I 10. On approval of the "COMMISSIONS", the Building Commission would advertise for construction bids, receive bids, review and submit same for review and approval of the "COMMISSIONS". I 11. On approva.l of the "COMMISSIONS", the Building Commission would execute construction contract(s) and issue a "Notice to Proceed". I 12. The Building Commission would approve interim pay estimates of the construction Contractors, and approve change orders on construction within the construction budget. I 13. The Building Commission would make inspections of the completed buildings and the final pay estimates and recommend same to the "COMMISSIONS" for approval. I All costs of the performance of Items 1 through 6 would be paid by the res- pective "COMMISSIONS" in proportion to the square foot area to be occupied by each governmental unit on the basis of the preliminary plans prepared in Item 2. I I All costs of Items 7 through 13 would be paid from the proceeds of the bond fund. A separate cost account shall be maintained for the City and the County by the Building Commission based on the proportion of cost determined by the proportion of square foot assigned by the Building Committee to the City and the County based upon the final construction plans. I It would be the duty of the Building Commission to prepare a budget of cost for the operation and maintenance of the building from the date of final payment to the construction contractor to the period ending on the termina- tion of the fiscal year. The Building Committee shall on or before August I of each year prepare an operation and maintenance budget for ensuing fiscal year. Such budgets shall be submitted to the "COMMISSIONS" for their individ- ual approvals. Such budgets shall include but not be limited to the following items: I I I Bond principa.l redemption requirements I Bond interest requirements Building Operation Costs I Building Maintenance Costs Building Improvements costs I Costs would be in conformance with an operation and maintenance agreement executed by and between the "COMMISSIONS" and the Building Commission. Any costs to be incurred in excess of the budgeted amount shall require the ap- proval of the "C(){\1MISSICNS" prior to incurring liability. for expense. I I .. I I 107 I I A separate operation and maintenance agreement could be executed between the City Commission, the County Commission and the Building Commission. The arrangement of the building and the express desires of the City and the County will have a substantial effect on this agreement and we offer below several comments that we have collected with regard to such an agreement. I I 1. The Building Commission could employ the city equipment and forces to perform items such as street sweeping, snow removal and other possible operation items which might be proper to be performed by present staff and equipment. It would seem desirable that the City make charges to the Ruilding Commission for either an agreed amount or the actual charges involved in the performance of these assigned duties. I I 2. The Building Commission should employ and direct the janitorial and maintenance staff to perform services for the entire facility. We received these comments from the county clerk, housed in joint facilities with Quincy, city offices;: - they believed their separate forces (one for County and one for City) of maintenance and janitor were costing them considerably more than if the work were performed by a single staff. I I I 3. The Building Commission should probably pay all utility and maintenance bills and that these would be included in the items of the budget. I 4. The Building Commission should perform all redecorations at the re- quest of the using agency and make charges accordingly. I 5. In present joint facilities it does appear desirable that such items as addressograph equipment, microfilm equipment and accounting com- putors would be items which logically could be operated cooperatively by the City and County, however, this could be on a rental basis from one agency directly to the other agency without involvement of the Building Commission. I I The final operation and maintenance agreement could be drafted and executed at the time the final plans were prepared. I I I I I I 108 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I FUTURE EXPANSION 109 I I FUWRE EXPANS ION NEEDS I Interviews with Department Heads revealed extreme difficulty in estimating needs for their departments beyond ten years in the future. There are so many indeterminate factors which would influence such an estimate: I Population variations I Political developments in the community, state or nation Changes in duties due to legislation I Technological developments I Economic developments Cultural and sociological changes. I Though there was hesitancy to predict specific requirements for space use, there was a general concensus that there is a distinct need to provide for expansion and change. I Provision for change should take the following forms: I "Cushion" space within the building(s) as constructed, which would permit natural and gradual growth, both for personnel and stored items; Flexible or movable partitions to permit re-shaping of the depart- ments and their relationship to each other: Provision for expansion of the building(s), either horizontally or vertically, to accommodate increased gross area needs at some time in the future. I I Either of the three building combinations, (Completely Separate, Separate on the same site, Combined Facility), would be readily adaptable to the provisions for change as described above. For sites A and C, provisions for vertical expansion should be provided. Due to the limitation of these sites, horizontal expansion should be discouraged. The cost estimates in this report DO NOT INCLUDE provision for vertical expansion unless noted. I I Provision for expansion horizontally would necessitate the selection of a site that would permit a generous amount of open lot in addition to the area used by the building(s). I I I I Provision for expansion vertically would of course necessitate the design of the structural system to accommodate additional loads in the future. Within a combined building, except where functional convenience required otherwise, the departments of the two governments would be essentially sep- arated, and would not interfere with alterations of the other party. If one government should experience reduced space needs, and the other gov- ernment should expand, the fl~xible partitioning would permit easy changes. I Operation and maintenance costs, and other responsibilities would be charged on a percentage basis depending on the p*rcentage of departmental space used by each: The percentages could be re-adjusted, (if necessary), after each, major sbif~ing of partitions. 110 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I RECAPITULATION Phase I Phase II Phase III III I I R E CAP I T U L A T ION I PHASE I I Item 1 I Item 2 I I I I Item 3 I I I I Item 4 I Item 5 I I I I I A Combined project is legally possible. There are no major legal restrictions to a cooperative building effort between a County Government and the City Government of a City which is the County Seat. Present buildings structurally sound but functionally obsolete Both the City Hall and the Courthouse are structurally adequate, and would be able to serve their respective governments satisfactorily for a number of years. Both of these buildings are obsolete according to present day stand- ards of lighting, heating, ventilating, air conditioning, fire safety acoustics, etc. Both buildings would require a substantial amount of work to improve finish and trim materials that have deteriorated due to age, weather- ing, use, etc. Existing buildings satisfactorily located The location of the City Hall is considered satisfactory as to rela- tion to the central busin~ss district, (CBO), but is not large enough to give the proper setting and dignified character that is important to a seat of government. The County Courthouse is satisfactorily related in relation to the CBO. It would, however, serve the sommunity somewhat more conveniently if it were closer to the CBO. The size of the site for existing conditions is ~atisfactory from a standpoint of character and dignity. Traffic is not a prohlem There are no major traffic problems encountered at either site. Both buildings very short of adequate space M~ny departments are lacking in necessary space to adequat~ly and ef- ficiently conduct their present operations. Several departments, in addition to lack of enough space, are further hindered by space that does not function properly, and cannot be made to function properly due to the inflexibility of the existing build- ings. 112 I I PHASE I (continued) I Item 6 It is "possible" to expand existing buildings _ "desirability" questionable I I~ I I Item 7 I I Item 8 I I I Item 9 I I PHASE II I Item I I I I I Considered from the standpoint of possibility only, and not necessar- ily from the standpoint of desirability, it is possible to construct the needed additional space by addition(s) to the existing bui~dings. It would not be possible, (except by a multi-story, more than three stories, building), to construct a joint City-County Governmental cen- ter on the present City Hall property. It would be possible to construct a joint City-County Governmental Center on the present Courthouse property. Some cities now use a combined facility Other cities within and without the borders of Kansas have found that a joint governmental center has been advantageous from an efficiency standpoint, particularly in the area of law enforcement. This, plus savings in construction and operation costs, shows an advantage for this type of organization. Courthouse neighborhood satisfactory The adjoining land uses in the vicinity of the City Hall are not the most ideal for a setting for city or county government. The land uses in the vicinity of the Courthouse are considered satis- factory for governmental offices. (Refer to comments under Item 3.) Existing buildings could be used for other purposes In the event that either the City Hall or the County Courthouse were to be replaced by a new structure, there are possible uses to which the existing building(s) could be put. The area immediately to northwest of CBD is desirable location A Governmental Center should be within 600 feet of the periphery of the CED. Location on wide, arterial streets is desirable. Ninth street, with access to Interstate Highway 70, and Ash street, with access to Inter- state Highway 35W, fit this description. Area northeast and east of CBD is undesirable because it is zoned for light industry, and because of the location of the railroads. 113 I I PHASE II (continued) Area to southeast and south is zoned for light industry and for gener- al business. Also traffic patterns are less convenient. I I I I Item 2 I I I I I I Item 3 I I I I I I I Land use to south is suitable for a Governmental Center, but a loca- tion close to the CBD would inhibit business development. t- The land to the southwest and west that is within a convenient dis- tance from the CBD is already used for largely public and semi-public uses. The area to the northwest provides sites which are a convenient dis- tance from the CBD and are served by both Ninth and Ash Streets. Three methods of financing possible , 1. Accumulation of funds 2. Bond issues 3. Sale of property The City of Salina has no funds available for building construction. Construction work by the City of Salina in the near future would re- quire issuance of gen'eral obligation bonds affirmed by a bond election. Saline County has accumulated approximately $429,000. under a special building fund levy. Saline County is authorized to accumulate the special building levy at a maximum rate of one (1) mill. The present rate of .52 mills should produce $48,322. in 1963 property taxes. Saline County is authorized to supplement the levy with bonds until the fund reaches two-and-one-half, (~), percent of the County assess- ed valuation. ~ percent of the 1963 valuation was $2,323,000. Ownership and Organization should be by means of a Building Authority or Building Commission Kansas statutes authorize building authorities, but apparently do not permit the use of revenue bonds. The principal reasoning behind the use of building authorities is clearly stated in the Indiana Statute: "The bringing together of various activities and functions of sev- eral governmental units into one or more modern buildings would facilitate the carrying on of public business through closer grouping and more economical housing. However, the financing, management, operation and allocation of space in a building used jointly by several governmental units can be handled efficiently, fairly, and economically only by a body separate and apart from the governmental units themselves." .. 114 ITE AI LI I .1 SITE D I ~ I I L.__. __ _._._ ----.--__._____.J - ~ .,. .:::... -- -.-... - '~.' -- ~. , ----, .. t. 1 Iii : ~ I .

SITES STUDIED 115 I I I I I I I I I I I I I .1 I I I Item 4 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I Site "E" judged most desirable Criteria for judgement: Ease of building on the site Appearance of project on site Walking distance from County Jail (transporting of prisoners to courts) Walking distance from CBO Parking relationships to CBO Potential for renewal of the area Appraised value of land 116 I I PHASE III I Item 1 I I I Item 2 I I Item 3 I I Item 4 I I Item 5 I I I Item 6 I I I I The City of Salina requires a building area of 37,950. square feet. Saline County requires a building area of 47,320. square feet. A joint facility to serve both governments would require a building area of 83,400. square feet. The Police Station, (including facilities for the City Court), would require a building area of 24,940. square feet. Additional reductions in area might be possible if, by mutual ag- reement, certain functions could be organized to serve all, (or several), departments of both governments. If a Civil Defense Emergency Control Center were included in the project, federal funds are available for assisting in construction to meet specific requirements of such a program. (This has not been included in the areas listed under Item 1, or in the cost est- imates.) For purposes of cost estimating it was assumed that the materials and methods of construction would be consistent with other similar projects in this part of the country. Specifically, the cost esti- mates are predicated on a building of durable materials, air condi- tioning, flexibility and expandibility. Estimated costs for CONSTRUCTI~1 ONLY are: City Building. $ 773,990. County Building. $ 995,180. Total. . . .$ 1,729,170.00 Combined Building. .$ 1,621,820.00 .$ 107,350.00 Difference. An estimated ing costs if $99,000. over stant. saving of $1,980. per year is anticipated for operat- a combined building is constructed. This amounts to a period of fifty years if the amount remains con- An estimated saving of $2,400. per year in personnel and equipment rental costs for telephone service is anticipated if a Combined Building is used. This amounts to $120,000. over a period of fifty years. 117 I I Item 7 I I Item 8 I I I I I I I I I I I I I I II .- Operation and ownership of a combined building would be by means of a "Bui lding Commissi on" . The responsibility of the Bui lding Comm- ission would be similar to a Ruilding Committee during the con- struction of the project, and similar to a Board of Trustees for another public building after the project was completed. Future expansion would be either by addition of floors in the fu- ture, or would take the form of horizontal expansion. Either form of expansion must be provided for at the time the original project is constructed. Vertical expansion requires special foundation work, and horizontal expansion requires a site large enough to ac- commodate it.

(2) An additional $15,000 should be included for one of the two buildings to pre- vent either a double move by County, or a two year delay for City facilities. (3) This eliminates Memorial Hall, so an additional amount would be required to re- place this facility (including land) by the City. (4) Amount does not include City Police facilities, which would be $595,530 addition- al. I. (5) Due to size of site an additional $15,000 ($6,600 City and $8,400 County) should be included for provision for vertical expansion. (6) Due to size of site, an additional $7,000 for the City Building and $9,000 for the County Building should be included for provision for vertical expansion. (7) If County Building were limited to Courthouse site, County costs would be $1,042,940., however, $15,000 should be added for difficulty of Construction to prevent double move and $9,000 for provision for vertical expansion due to size of site. NOTE: Costs do not include costs for a City Police Facility. This is estimated to be from $545,570. to $620,150. depending upon site used. Except where the County Courthouse property is used as part of the building site, it has been assumed the Courthouse and City Hall properties would be sold. This is reflected in the above figures. 119 I I i I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I RECOMlYIENDA TI ON 120 I I I I I I I I RECOMMENDATIONS It is the recoaaendation at this report that Saline County and the City o'L Salina: 1. - Elect to proceed with theeconstruction and joint ownership o'L a Combined Bui 1ciing to serve the County and City Governments; A combined saving of $107,350. in construction cost, and $4,380. in yearly operating cost should be realized by this action. In the light of the urgent need of many departments of both City and County governments for additional and more functional apace, it is recommended tbat a decision be made at an early date, and that a building program be started promptly. 2. - Form a Building Commission for the planning, construction and joint own- ership and operation of the proposed building; I I I I I 3. - The Building Commission be invested with the power to select and work with an Architect for the project as a Building Committee, and after the project is completed, to serve as a Board of Trustees for the operation of the project; -. 4. - Select a site for the Combined Building: It is the recommendation of this report that Site E be $elected because of its greater potential for convenience, flexibility and expansion. (Site D also has many of these advantages except the shape of site is more restrictive.) If cost must be the determ\ning factor, Site A is the obvious choice. However, it should be pointed out that Site E has 45% more area than Site A. I I I I If the City should find it feasible to abandon the use of a Civic Auditorium for a period of years, or to construct a new Auditor- ium simultaneously with the proposed City-County Building, then Site "B" would be the recoDlDlendation of this report. Site "B" would afford the greatest amount of usable site area for the a- mount of money spent and at the least expenditure of money. I 5. - Hire an Architect within four weeks of the first reading of this report to begin preliminary planning at once in preparation for a bond election at the earliest date possib.le and practicable; 6. - Coincident with the above recommendations, it is recommended that the City purchase property and construct a new Police Station convenient to the existing County Jail.
