THAT Report No. CS-06-01 be received; 2. THAT the Site Plan (attachment #1) identifying the proposed expansion be approved; 3. THAT the Floor Plan (attachment #2) be approved in principle; 4.

THAT staff be authorized to proceed to issue Tender call for construction of the Courtice Community Complex FORTHWITH. 1.0 BACKGROUND 1.1 At the February 28th, 2000 Council Meeting, Council approved the expenditure for design fees for the Capital Project Expansion at the Courtice Community Complex. 1.2 On June 26th, 2000, Council further approved the recommendation to hire Thomas E. Brown Architects Incorporated of Toronto, as architects for the Courtice Community Complex Expansion. 1 .3 Since that time, the architects, in conjunction with staff, have prepared concept drawings for floor space, site plan, as well as exterior elevations of the proposed expansion. ..../2 REPORT NO.: CS-06-01 PAGE 2 1.4 These floor plans meet the requirements of the Community Services Department to provide an expanded fitness services component to Courtice Community Complex. 1.5 As part of the design process, Thomas E. Brown Architects Incorporated surveyed current, facility members, for their input to the expanded facility and the population at large. Subject to Council approval of the concept drawings, the Community Services Department will propose an open house at the Courtice Community Complex to present the drawings to the Community and the existing members. 2.0 PROJECT SCHEDULE 2.1 At the time of selection of the architects, the projected opening date for the Courtice Community Complex was September 2001. However, due to heavy construction volume within the Durham Region, a final completion date can not be established until contractor has been selected. It is anticipated that the project will be completed early in 2002. 3.0 SITE PLAN 3.1 The project site plan (Attachment #1) incorporates the expansion to the north east of the existing community complex. It should be noted this is strictly a building project, and that site services and parking are not required, thus minimizing the construction timetable. 4.0 FLOOR PLAN 4.1 The overall expansion is approximately 14,000 SF of new construction plus approximately 1,000 SF of renovation space. 4.2 The feature areas of the expansion include a fitness area 4,800 square feet, change room facilities, including saunas and showers at 3,800 square feet, an aerobics studio at 1,800 square feet, administrative/membership services areas at 1,600 square feet, storage and testing areas at 320 square feet. 4.3 In addition to the above features, the proposed expansion includes a 1600 SF leasable area which will facilitate paramedical services normally provided in the private sector. Through recent consultation, the utilization of this space to provide possible therapeutic, physiotherapy and chiropractic services complimentary to the fitness centre provides another revenue opportunity to the municipality. ..../3 REPORT NO.: CS-06-01 PAGE 3 At the point that fitness membership reaches projections, this area could revert to membership floor space to allow for expanded membership services. 5.0 PROJECT BUDGET 5.1 A preliminary construction analysis estimate for this project has been conducted and indicates that the budget appears to be adequate. As previously indicated, however, anticipating market saturation the Architects have been requested to provide recommendations at this time should the construction cost exceed the available budget amount and the project needs to be downsized. 6.0 PRE-QUALIFICATION PROCESS 6.1 The Staff Project Committee, in conjunction with the Architects, are recommending pre-qualification of all contractors in order to meet the qualification and experience expectation for a project of this nature. Accordingly, the committee is recommending the Treasury Department proceed with the pre- qualification of contractors. 7.0 TENDER PROCESS 7.1 To ensure an equitable process, it is a committee recommendation to work with the Durham Construction Association throughout the Tendering Process. All drawing documents related to the Courtice Community Complex Expansion will be posted at the associations' office. 8.0 COMMENT 8.1 The Building Committee will continue to update Council as to the progress of the project. The next expected report will be for the tender approval for the selection of a General Contractor. Staff is requesting a forthwith approval of this report to meet advertising deadlines and construction timeframes to avoid winter conditions. Respectfully submitted, Reviewed by, Jo p .
