We would appreciate your review of our assessment end would like to discuss your impression of these notes as soon as possible. Project DescripHon 7'he intent of the project is to relocate an existing inmate program into the Carnegie building temporarily until space in the existing jail building can be remodeled and made available for occupancy. It is anticipated that the Carnegie building will be occupied by Work Releasc from ]uly 2002 until June 2005. This relocstion involves approximately 50-60 inmates,of mixed gender,and Corrections staff. Only the upper floor of the building involves inmate housing and that is where the majority of the construction work is anticipated,with the exception of the fire suppression system. This project is not intended as renovation ofa historic strucmre, listed on both the Stnte and National register of historic places. 'Ihe proposed project involves temporery interior modifications necessary to relocate the Work Release progmm only. 'Ihem are no exterior improvements or modifications. The water service for the sprinl.ler systems will nad to enter the building,but that is the only pertnanent change to the exterior of the building. Interior I modifications are responses to Code mandated items like incressing the number of plumbing fixtures consistent with the anticipated population, improving accessibility inside end ouuide i the building,and other life safety items like smoke detectors,exit signs and additional doors to facilitate exiting from the dortnitory spaces.
