CABARRUS COUNTY <br />BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS <br />REGULAR MEETING <br />�r�'n o i__ionv� W - <br />4 1 <br />1 <br />1 P .M. <br />AGENDA CATEGORY: <br />Consent Agenda <br />SUBJECT: <br />EMS - Approval of EMS Co- location with Harrisburg Fire Station 3 <br />BRIEF SUMMARY: <br />It is proposed that EMS #10 move to a permanent home in the new <br />Harrisburg Fire Station #3 that will be constructed on Rocky River Road in <br />Harrisburg. EMS #10 has been operating out of a job trailer and then a <br />small area at Harrisburg Station #2 for several years in anticipation of this <br />permanent move. <br />Construction is planned to be completed in December 2014. EMS will <br />occupy approximately 20% of the new structure. The total amount is <br />proposed to be paid in a lump sum of $375,000, in return for a 50 -year <br />lease. The use of one -time funds (fund balance) was discussed for this <br />proposal, although this can be included in the FY 2014/15 budget, since <br />funds will be expended in FY 15. A formal contract will be developed <br />between Cabarrus County and the City of Harrisburg at a later point and <br />presented to the Board for approval. This action does not require any <br />personnel additions. <br />A similar arrangement has already been approved for a joint station with <br />Kannapolis on Barr Road, and the current budget includes funds for a joint <br />station on Weddington Road that is being constructed by Concord. <br />REQUESTED ACTION: <br />Motion to approve the funding for the EMS co- location with Harrisburg Fire <br />Station 3 by adoption of the related budget amendment, adoption of <br />related project ordinances; and to authorize the County Manager to <br />execute the Agreement on behalf of Cabarrus County, subject to review <br />F -3 Page 55 <br />
