Site work and new construction of a mixed-use development in Roseville, California. Completed plans call for the construction of a detention facility; and 13,238-square-foot, one-story above grade medical facility.

https://yubanet.com/regional/placer-county-supervisors-authorize-56-million-for-sheriffs-office-facilities/ - The Placer County Board of Supervisors adopted a series of resolutions Tuesday, to authorize the award of two design-build contracts totaling $56 million for the construction of the Mental Health Facility and the Vocational Training Facility at the Bill Santucci Justice Center in Roseville. Based on a best-value criterion, the contracts were both awarded to Clark & Sullivan Construction and Broward Builder, who have entered a joint venture. When complete, the two Placer County Sheriff's Office facilities will add a total of 165 beds to the South Placer Jail. The Vocational Training Facility is anticipated to cost approximately $37 million to construct and will encompass nearly 39,000 square feet of space in a single-story building. With the addition of two new housing units, the design will include space for 120 inmates. When complete, the new facility will provide job training for employment opportunities with the goal to help reduce recidivism in Placer County. "I'd like to thank our board of supervisors for their support in reducing the recidivism rate in Placer County, said Placer County Sheriff Devon Bell. "We have seen the positive impact made on inmates who participate in our vocational programs as they take their new skills and apply them in the workforce. Hearing how motivated they are to work time off their sentence to begin a new journey upon their release makes us proud," Sheriff Bell added. "By reducing the recidivism rate, we can continue to keep Placer County a safe place to live, work, and visit." The Mental Health Facility will cost approximately $19 million to construct and the design calls for a single-story building encompassing 16,555 square feet with three 15-bed pods totaling 45 inmate beds. The new facility will support acute mental health treatment as well as expanded treatment for those who are deemed incompetent to stand trial. A separate and secure corridor will be built to connect the two new buildings to the existing jail. Three teams responded to the call for proposals to develop design-build concepts for both facilities. The two unsuccessful proposers -Arrington Watkins Architects, Roebbelen Contracting, Inc. / Nacht and Lewis; and SlettenCompanies / DLR Group - were both awarded $50,000 for their participation in the time-consuming procurement process. SlettenCompanies / DLR Group withdrew after phase one was complete, opting not to pursue phase 2 of the selection process. The total cost for both projects is anticipated to reach $68 million with approximately $40 million in state grants coming from the Board of State and Community Corrections. The county is covering the remaining $28 million using public safety funds, capital reserves, and federal grant funding from the American Rescue Plan Act. The cost of these two projects is estimated to be 29% higher than originally anticipated because of state government delays and rampant inflation. District 5 Supervisor and Board Chair Cindy Gustafson directed staff to send a letter to the BSCC seeking additional funding since the delays were caused by the state. "County staff has done everything possible to work with state staff, but I wonder if we might be able to elevate the conversation to our electeds," said Gustafson. "They have a state budget surplus, and they want these projects to continue. I think it's appropriate to ask for an increase in their contribution since the state is responsible for the delay." No additional staffing will be needed to manage the Vocational Training Facility as correctional officers will be re-assigned and staffing increases for the Mental Health Facility will be fully offset through a contract with the Department of State Hospitals. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ https://goldcountrymedia.com/news/175114/placer-supervisors-approve-annual-budget-for-next-fiscal-year-prioritizing-public-health-and-safety/ Jun 26, 2020 The Placer County Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to approve a balanced budget of $1,020,071,376 for the next fiscal year, a 1.3 percent decrease from last year's budget of $1,033,296,224. Property taxes continue to be the county's largest revenue source, as property value continues to increase, but during a presentation to the board, Placer County Finance and Budget Operations Manager Daniel Chatigny noted sales tax and transient occupancy tax are expected to decline due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Chatigny also noted neither revenues nor expenditures in the final budget have been adjusted for impacts related to the pandemic and associated stay-at-home orders. "Planning ahead to the potential impacts from COVID-19, the 1.3 percent decrease in expenditures is related to reducing additional budget requests, i.e. supplemental requests to those that were critical to county operations or time sensitive," Chatigny said. "Examples of this are additional funding for fire system support, including hazardous vegetation abatement, replacement of outdated software programs and housing and homeless support. Other department requests were deferred to a later time once we see actual impacts from COVID-19 to county revenues." Chatigny also confirmed the 1.3 percent decrease will have no impact to reserves or current county staffing, as it is on the expenditure side of the budget. The county's financial position and reserves are healthy, which affords the county time to make appropriate decisions regarding short-term and long-term impacts. The traditional revenue sources and expenditures will be monitored by the county along with any new sources of funding, such as that provided by the federal CARES Act, and recommended budget adjustments will be made as needed throughout the next fiscal year. Countywide five-year capital improvement plan projects identified in the budget include: $28.5 million in funding for the new coroner facility $30 million in funding for the new crime lab $90 million in funding for the new health and human services building $13 million in funding for a new mental health facility $35 million in funding for a new vocational center $50 million in funding for a new Tahoe Justice Center "We have a balanced budget," District 5 Supervisor Cindy Gustafson said. "In fact, we are putting money aside for capital and investing in infrastructure." Public health and safety continue to be a priority for the county with Health and Human Services claiming a budget of $230 million and public safety operational funds coming in at $216 million. "Over the years, our Board of Supervisors has been dedicated to the provision of services that keep our residents safe and productive," District 4 Supervisor Kirk Uhler said. "This budget is reflective of that." _______________________________________________________________________________________________ The County of Placer is requesting competitive proposals for Design/Build services to design and construct the Placer County Mental Health Facility and the Placer County Medium Security and Vocational Training Facility.
