cost, and the Sheriff's office and communication center at $1,500,000. He continued to review the figures developed re the Minimum Security Facility, noting that there is an unanticipated deficit of $1,047,400. Commissioner Bird asked if that project was part of the 9.8 million bond issue, and Chairman Scurlock listed the five projects included within that issue: The fourth courtroom - quarters for the State's Attorney - the first phase of the Jail - the minimum security facility - and the Sheriff's complex. Discussion continued, and it was noted that we haven't awarded the contract for the Sheriff's facility yet. Director Baird stated that he and Director Dean have worked on the expenses and they are just beginning on Phase II. The Sheriff's office and communications center is the third project, for which a budget of 1.5 million was established in the bond prospe tus, and while he does not have a complete expense breakdown yet, he showed the expenses he does have, and these come out of the architect's letter of January. Chairman Scurlock asked if Director Baird ever saw that letter until yesterday, and Director Baird stated he had not nor had Director Dean. Director Baird informed the Board that there are expenses not included in the deficit of $1,104,605 for the Sheriff's facility, and they are substantial, i.e., the telephone system, the 911 system, water and sewer impact fees, furniture and equipment, the additional landscaping required by Planning 8 Zoning, sewer improvements on the site, engineering, and interest expense. Also, the architect has a concern that he drew the numbers up 9 months or so ago, and they may have increased 8-10%. Chairman Scurlock believed the interest expense which was left out could amount to somewhere around $250-300,000. Director Baird believed that it actually will be more than that, depending on the length of time the project runs. 36 l JUN 4196 BOOK 6 4 i'a,%C 6.3®
