September 4, 2007 (Work Session) Ware Bonsall Contract Amendment #11 Page 540 Glenn Ware of Ware Bonsall Architects reviewed Contract Amendment No. 11 totaling $75,600.00 for redesign of the jail housing building as a result of the conditional use process with the City of Concord. He reported the housing unit was originally designed using precast concrete modules with an exterior stain to reduce the cost of the project. He said the design was submitted to the City for review, but the firm was not allowed to meet with City review staff because of the ongoing appeal process. After the six-month appeal process was completed, he said the City placed new conditions on the exterior of the building to give it more depth and included the use of brick, spandrel windows, etc. He identified the plans, drawings and systems that had to be changed to reflect the new conditions that were not part of the original design. Mr. Ware and John D. Day, the County Manager, responded to a variety of questions from the Board on the amendment, the redesign, renderings, etc. UPON MOTION of Commissioner White, seconded by Vice Chairman Juba and unanimously carried, the Board voted to place Ware Bonsall Contract Amendment No. 11 on the September 17, 2007 Agenda as a New Business item. of Service Agreement with Cabarrus County Schools for the Provision Loretta Lee, Budget and Performance Manager, reported since 1996 the Sheriff's Department has provided school resource officers to Cabarrus County Schools without a formal agreement, even though the reimbursement from Cabarrus County Board of Education has remained the same while the number of officers has increased. She further reported it was determined that Cabarrus County Schools receives an allocation from the State for high school resource officers, but not for middle school resource officers. Through a new service agreement, she proposed to bill the school system for the actual amount that can be received from the State and show the middle school resource officers as "in kind" service provided by the County. There was a general discussion on the provision of resource officers in municipalities and staff responded to a variety of questions from the Board. UPON MOTION of Commissioner White, seconded by Vice Chairman Juba and unanimously carried the Board voted to place the Service Agreement with Cabarrus County Schools for the provision of school resource officers on the September 17, 2007 Agenda as a Consent item. - LunchPlus Club Nutrition Program - Award of Pam Dubois, Deputy County Manager, presented a request to award a bid and contract for catering services to Varsity Barbeque for the provision of meals to senior citizens through the LunchPlus Club Nutrition Program administered through the Department of Aging. She reported the catering contract was put out to bid because Canteen Vending Services, the Program's previous caterer, requested a 57 cent per meal increase (a total of $3.98 per meal) which equated to a 17 percent increase over last year's cost. Varsity Barbeque, the only other bidder, submitted a bid of $3.60 per meal which is 19 cents higher or 6 percent higher than last year's cost. She also pointed out $6,000.00 in additional cost would be offset by decreased program participation at the Kannapolis location, which recently relocated from the Cannon Memorial YMCA to the Lane Street Church of God. Ms. Dubois responded to questions from the Board. UPON MOTION of Commissioner Privette, seconded by Commissioner Mynatt and unanimously carried, the Board voted to place the bid and contract award for the LunchPlus Club Nutrition Program on the September 17, 2007 Agenda as a Consent item.
