Inc. Property Owner: COEL Development Co.Inc. Address of Property: 2795 Gordon Hwy Tax Parcel #: 064-0-008-00-0 Present Zoning: R-l (One-Family Residential) Subdivision: Hayne's Station Commission District: 3 (Mary Davis) F'ort Gordon Notification Required: Yes Request.' The applicant is requesting a Special Exception to establish a Recreational Facility per Section 26-1(i) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance for Augusta, Georgia. Background: This case involves a2.76-acre undeveloped tract located on Copse Drive in the Hayne's Station Hayne's Station is a single-family residential development located off Gordon Highway in west Augusta. The applicant proposes to develop a privately-owned and operated recreation facility on the site for the use and enjoyment of subdivision residents and their guests. Much of the surrounding area is undeveloped land, with exception of single-family dwellings in the Hayne's Station subdivision. The subdivision has fow (4) sections and currently contains 139 lots zoned Request Special Exception Recreation Facility (Swimming Pool)Section 26-1(i) R-l (One-Family Residential). About 125 lots homes have been built or being built at this time. Nearby zoning include A (Agriculture) R-lB (One-Family Residential), and R-MH (Manufactured Home Residential). Fort Gordon is located on the opposite side of Gordon Highway from the subdivision. The applicant proposes to establish a privately-owned and operated recreation facility on the subject property. The plan involves construction of two pool houses, an in-ground pool, patio and fence enclosure, and fifteen (15) vehicle parking spaces, all situated on the southern portion of the lot. The pool houses will measure 20' x 30' (600 square feet) and 2l' x 46' (966 square feet). A request to develop a privately-owned and operated recreation facility is subject to meeting the following criteria in Section 26-l(i) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance for Augusta, Georgia. 1. Structures except fences and walls shall be set back at least fifty (50) feet from property lines separating the property from contiguous properties zoned or developed for residential use. 2. Lighting shall be designed so that adjacent properties are not adversely affected. 3. Outdoor activities shall cease at 11:00 P.M. 4. Lounges, clubhouses, and similar facilities shall be designed and operated for use by members and their guests, or patrons who are using the club or recreational facility. Lounges, clubhouses and similar facilities shall be located at least one hundred (100) feet from contiguous properties zoned or developed for residential use. 5. A plan illustrating compliance with the above requirements shall be submitted to the Staff of the Augusta Planning and Development Department before the proposal is placed on the agenda. The Planning Commission shall determine that all of the foregoing requirements have been satisfied, and further, that the benefits of the proposed club, privately owned and operated recreational facility, swimming pool, fishing lake, or similar recreational use are greater than any possible depreciating effects and damages to the neighboring properties. (6) Lounges, clubhouses, and similar facilities shall be designed and operated for use by members and their guests, or patrons who are using the club or recreational facility. Findings: 1. The property has frontage along Copse Drive (approx. 175.57 feet), which is classified as a local road. 2. Proposed lighting will include flood lights on all four corners of each building as well as two (2) porch lights located above the bathroom doors. The flood lights will be pointed downward to shine on the pool and pool deck. 3. Based on an initial site plan submitted on 210212015, it appears the setbacks of the proposed facilities comply with regulatory requirements. The pool houses measure 102 feet from the nearest residential lot, and is situated more than 50 feet from any property line. The pool area is situated within 100 feet of the residential properties to the west. According to the submitted landscape plan, the developer proposes to plant three (3) species of vegetation - cabbage palm and willow oak trees and loropetalum (shrub), mainly in and around the pool - parking area; a 20- foot natural buffer will provide additional separation from adjoining properties to the north and west. 4. The applicant has indicated to staff that the pool will close at 9:00 P.M. during the swimming season. The lock used on the gate will not allow access to the pool after this time. 5. The proposed facility will have handicap accessible men's and women's restrooms. 6. The submitted plan shows 15 vehicle parking spaces. Since the minimum number of parking spaces is not been clearly defined in the zoning ordinance, the required amount of spaces is at the discretion of the Planning Director. 7. There will be a black, vinyl-coated fence around the deck area enclosing the pool as required by the state, which will be about 4 feet in height. Project Analysis: The developers of the Hayne's Station subdivision propose to develop a vacant tract into for their recreational facilities, which consists of two pool houses and an in-ground pool. Based on the Special Exception guidelines in Section 26-l(i) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance, the request meets the minimum setback requirements for proposed facilities. The submitted site plan clearly indicates that all structures are more than 50 feet from the boundary of residentially- zoned or developed lots, and are more than 100 feet from the property line to the west.

Background: Analysis: Financial Impact: Alternatives: Recommendation: Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Clerk of Commission AUGUSTA.RICHMOND COT]NTY PLAI\NING COMMISSION REZONING STAFF REPORT Case Number: 2.15-06 Hearing Date: Monday, March 212015 Report Prepared By: Paul DeCamp, Kevin Boyd and Bob Austin Applicant: Denise McKie Property Owner: Denise McKie Address of Propertyz 2807 King Street Tax Parcel #z 097 -4-238-00-0 Pres ent Zoningz R- I A (0 ne-f,'amily Residential) Subdivision: New Belmont Commission District: 2 (Dennis Williams) Fort Gordon Notification Required: N/A Request: The applicant is requesting a Special Exception for a Family Personal Care Home per Section 26-1(h) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance for Augusta, Georgia. Background: This case involves a 0.28-acre tract located on King Street, approximately 230 feet south of Rudy Drive. According to tax records, the one-story ranch house was constructed in 1948 and measures 1,025 square feet. The appticant intends to construct a 16' x 22' (352 square-feet) addition to the rear of the residence to serve as an additional bedroom. The rear yard is entirely enclosed by chain-link, wood and wire fencing. A handicap ramp is located in the front yard and attached to the porch. Request Special Exception Family Personal Care Home Section 26-1 (h) The general land development of the area is medium-density residential and many of the properties located east of Richmond Hill Road are zoned R-lA (One-Family Residential). A minor commercial node exists to the south, at the intersection Richmond Hill Road and Lumpkin Road, and is zoned B-l (General Business). While homes in the area appear to originate from a particular period and similar style, alterations to homes in the area have resulted in variations in residential size and appearance. The applicant is requesting a Special Exception for a Family Personal Care Home in an R-lA (One-Family Residential) zone. The zoning ordinance states that Special Exceptions may be permitted in any zone where such uses are deemed essential or desirable to the public convenience or welfare and are in harmony with the various elements or objectives of the Master Plan / Planning Document in effect. A request for a Family Personal Care Home is subject to meeting the following criteria in Section 26-l (h) of the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance for Augusta, Georgia. 1. May not be established within 1,200 feet of a lawfully existing family day care home, adult day care facility, transition housing, or another family personal care home in A, R or P zones; 2. Shall not be located in areas where the health, safety and welfare of the residents would be compromised; and 3. The Planning Commission shall determine that the foregoing requirements have been satisfied and further, that the benefits of the proposed family personal care home are greater than any possible depreciating effects and damages to neighboring properties. It will be necessary for the applicant to provide verification that the home is in compliance with the Georgia Department of Community Health and meets the requirements of Chapter 111-8- 62.01 of the O.C.G.A. The applicant must also obtain a business license from Augusta, Georgia. The fire marshal should also inspect the home to ensure compliance with applicable codes. Findings: 1. A Planning and Development Department code enforcement officer inspected the property and found: o The property has three (3) bedrooms and one (l) full bathroom and one (1) half bathroom. The proposed rear addition will replace an existing bedroom. . There is a living room, dining room and kitchen. o The structure has a sufficient amount of fire safety equipment and smoke detectors. The exhaust fan over the stove does not work and is in need of repair; other cosmetic updates have been made, including the installation of new windows without a permit. The handicap ramp located at the main entrance is in good condition. There will be no private space for the caregiver, rather "Bedroom 3" will be converted into a family room and sleeping accommodations will be made of the space. There is no sidewalk along either side of the street. Refer to the project analysis for additional information on the occupancy of the bedrooms, and layout and size of existing rooms. This summary is an initial inspection resulting in case no. CE20150000581. 2. According to Planning and Development Department records, there are no family personal care homes in the immediate area. There are no lawfully existing family day care homes, adult day care facilities, transition housing or another family personal care home within 1,200 feet of the subject property. 3. Crime statistics obtained from the GIS Crime Mapping, based on data supplied by the Sheriffs Department, indicate several reported incidences of criminal activity, to include thirteen burglaries and other theft of personal property, in the general vicinity of the property in the last six (6) months. Many of the reported offenses occurred on the same street and nearby streets in the neighborhood. 4. The personal care home would have six (6) clients and be owner-operated on a twenty- four hour basis. 5. This petition will not result in any substantial physical changes to the residence. The applicant intends to construct a rear addition to the residence. 6. The enclosed rear yard provides opportunities for outdoor activities. 7. The site contains an approximately 8' x 60' driveway (measured from the street r-o-w) for parking, but remains unimproved at this time. 8. The structure is currently served by city water and sewer lines. 9. The applicant will have to obtain a license with the State of Georgia, and prove compliance with the minimum requirements of Chapter 111.8-62.01 of the O.C.G.A. 10. The applicant must obtain a Business License from Augusta, Georgia. Project Analysis: The family personal care home will be owner-operated but include an additional caregiver. The residence is clean and in fairly good condition. Comments from the initial inspection report, coupled with the submitted floorplan indicate some concerns over the layout of the residence. The submitted floor plan shows three existing bedrooms, o'Bedroom 1", "Bedroom 2" and "Bedroom 3". Based on the sizes of the rooms, "Bedroom 1" could accommodate two residents, "Bedroom 2" only allows for one resident. The proposed bedroom addition may be occupied by up to three residents. There will not be a private bedroom or space o o o a for the caregiver. Following the completion of the addition, "Bedroom 3" will be converted into a family room and sleeping accommodations will be made there for the caregiver the bathrooms may pose challenges as they are small and may not fully accommodate client needs. The International Property Maintenance Code requires a living room with 6 or more occupants to be a minimum of 150 square feet, and the dining room a minimum of 100 squa"re feet. The plan shows a dining and living room combination with a total of 288 square feet - this number will surely increase once "Bedroom 3" is converted into a family room. The applicant indicated that an appointment has been scheduled to repair the broken exhaust fan over the stove. Upon review of the existing building layout, it remains evident that these issues must be addressed. Crime statistics data supplied by the Sheriffs Department indicate several reported incidences of criminal activity in the general vicinity of the property in the last six (6) months. Preliminary Staff Recommendation: The Staff reserves its recommendation pending further discussion anilor dissemination of additional information during the Planning Commission hearing. The Planning Commission approved the petition with the stipulation that the family personal care home be limited to four (4) residents. Note: The information included in this staff report represents the best available information at the time it is written, which is generally two weeks prior to the Planning Commission hearing at which the zoning petition is to be heard. It represents an evaluation of the facts presented by the applicant, research done by the staff, and consideration of the relevant factors in the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance of Augusta, Georgia. New facts may emerge after the staff report is written and staff reserves the right to make an oral recommendation at the hearing based on all the information available at that time.

Augusta, Georgia has received Federal financial assistance from the Department of Transportation , and as a condition of receiving this assistance, Augusta, Georgia has signed an assurance that it will comply with 49 CFR Part 26. It is the policy of Augusta, Georgia to ensure that DBEs are defined in Part 26, have an equal opportunity to receive and participate in DOT - assisted contracts. It is also our policy: 1. To ensure nondiscrimination in the award and administration of DOT- assisted contracts; 2. To create a level playing field on which DBEs can compete fairly for DOT - assisted contracts; 3. To ensure that the DBE Program is narrowly tailored in accordance with applicable law; 4. To ensure that only firms that fully meet 49 CFR Part 26 eligibility standards are permitted to participate as DBEs; 5.

Yvonne Gentry has been delegated as the DBE Liaison Officer. In that capacity, Yvonne Gentry is responsible for implementing all aspects of the DBE program. Implementation of the DBE program is accorded the same priority as compliance with all other legal obligations incurred by Page 3 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 Augusta, Georgia in its financial assistance agreements with the Department of Transportation.

Page 15 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 Section 26.39 - Fostering Small Business Participation (49 CFR Part 26.39) Augusta, Georgia has incorporated the following non-discriminatory element to its DBE program, in order to facilitate competition on DOT- assisted public works projects by small business concerns (both DBEs and Non-DBE Small Businesses): A.

This determination will be made based on the estimated availability of small businesses able to provide specific scopes of work and will consider any economic or administrative burdens which may be associated with unbundling. Augusta, Georgia will document the factors used to determine whether or not a DOT - assisted contract will be unbundled or bid separately. 2.

Page 19 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 SUBPART C - GOALS, GOOD FAITH EFFORTS, AND COUNTING Section 26.43 Set-asides or Quotas Augusta, Georgia does not use quotas in any way in the administration of this DBE program. Section 26.45 Overall Goals In accordance with Section 26.45, Augusta, Georgia will submit its triennial overall DBE goal to FTA August 1 of 2014. Augusta, Georgia is in Group B. Augusta, Georgia will also request use of project-specific DBE goals as appropriate, and/or will establish project- specific DBE goals as directed by FTA. The process generally used by Augusta, Georgia to establish overall DBE goals is as follows: · Augusta, Georgia calculates the amount of FTA funds that it will have available for the three (3) year period covered by the Overall DBE goal. This amount included all allocations from previous years, projections for allocations for three fiscal years and excludes funds that have already been assigned (contracts awarded) to ongoing projects and funds allocated for bus purchases. · Augusta, Georgia identifies the projects that are carried out annually with FTA funds, and identifies upcoming projects as described in the Transportation Development Plan (TOP), and during the quarterly grants meeting requests from managers any other projects that will be carried through in the upcoming three years. Page 20 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 · Augusta, Georgia identifies the activities covered by all above mentioned projects, and identifies the NAICS codes that represent these activities. Augusta, Georgia identifies how much of the available funds in the upcoming three years will be used for each NAICS category; with this data Augusta, Georgia creates Table #1"Funds Available by NAICS Category". · Augusta, Georgia searches the UCP Directory and creates a list of all DBE companies certified under the identified NAICS codes. Augusta, Georgia adds to this mailing list; all Certified DBEs in Augusta, Georgia; the Bidders List and a list of local business organizations. · Augusta, Georgia reviews census data and identifies business patterns under the NAICS codes identified as the activities to be funded by FTA funds in the three upcoming years, and determines the number of firms available in Augusta, Georgia under each NAICS category. Using the list of Certified DBEs pulled from the UCP directory by NAICS Category, and the business patterns data, Augusta, Georgia creates Table #2 "Relative Availability of DBEs by NAICS Category". Table #2 provides a figure of the relative available DBEs that could participate in FTA assisted contracts. · Augusta, Georgia will use a weighted average to develop a base figure, which will be multiplied by the estimated percentage of total dollars expended within each NAICS category (Table I) by the percentage of DBE firms and subcontractors in each NAICS category (Table II). · Augusta, Georgia will prepare the Goal Methodology document using Table I and Table II and will include a Table Ill which shows how the base figure is developed using the weighted average. The Page 21 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 document will include the DBE Policy Statement and will request input about the best media outlets that Augusta, Georgia can use to better disseminate the announcement of the DBE Methodology, and continued communication of the availability of FTA funded contracts. The document will also request input on how to better establish a level playing field for the participation of DBEs in the identified projects. This document will be mailed to all entities listed on the Goals Mailing List, and it will request their input by a specific date, in order to be considered prior to publication of the methodology. · Following this consultation, Augusta, Georgia will publish a notice of the proposed overall goals, informing the public that the proposed goal and its rationale are available for inspection during normal business hours at the DBE Liaison office for 30 days following the date of the notice, and informing the public that Augusta, Georgia and FTA will accept comments on the goals for 45 days from the date of notice. · Augusta, Georgia will publish the notice in local papers. The notice will provide a link to the Augusta, Georgia website where the notice and methodology will be available; the notice will include the address where comments can be mailed, a telephone number where anyone can leave a voice comment and an email address where comments can be submitted during the comment period. · Augusta, Georgia's overall goal submission to FTA will include: the goal (including the breakout of estimated race-neutral and race- conscious participation, as appropriate); a copy of the methodology, worksheets, etc. used to develop the goal; a summary of information and comments received during this public participation process and Augusta, Georgia's responses; Page 22 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 and proof of publication of the goal in media outlets listed above. · Augusta, Georgia will begin using the overall goal on October 1 of the specified year, unless FTA provides other instruction. Augusta, Georgia goal will remain effective for the duration of the three- year period established and approved by FTA. Section 26.47 Goal Setting and Accountability If the awards and commitments shown on Augusta, Georgia's Uniform Report of Awards or Commitments and Payments at the end of any fiscal year are less than the overall applicable to that fiscal year, Augusta, Georgia will: 1. Analyze in detail the reason for the difference between the overall goal and the actual awards/commitments; 2. Establish specific steps and milestones to correct the problem identified in the analysis; and 3. Document in detail the analysis, and the steps established to implement a corrective action plan, and maintain information/records regarding the analysis and efforts made. Section 26.49 Transit Vehicle Manufacturers Goals Augusta, Georgia will require each transit vehicle manufacturer, as a condition of being authorized to bid or propose on FTA-assisted transit vehicle procurements, to certify that it has complied with the requirements of this section. Alternatively, Augusta, Georgia may, at its discretion and with FTA approval, establish project-specific goals for DBE participation in the procurement of transit vehicles in lieu of the TVM complying with this element of the program. Page 23 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 Section 26.51 Meeting Overall Goals/Contract Goals Augusta, Georgia will meet its overall goal using race-neutral means of facilitating DBE participation. In order to do so, Augusta, Georgia will implement the following measures to achieve race-neutral DBE participation. · Arranging solicitations, times for presentation of bids, quantities, specifications and delivery schedules in ways that facilitate participation by DBEs and other small businesses and by making contracts more accessible to small businesses, by means such as those provided under §26.39 of this part; · Ensuring distribution of the DBE directory, through print and electronic means, to the widest feasible universe of potential prime contractors; · Carrying out information and communications programs on contracting procedures and specific contract opportunities (e.g., ensuring the inclusion of DBEs and other small businesses, on recipient mailing lists for bidders; ensuring the dissemination to bidders on prime contracts of lists of potential subcontractors. Section 26.51 Breakout of Estimated Race-Neutral & Race- Conscious Participation The breakout of estimated race-neutral and race-conscious participation is not part of Augusta, Georgia Transit's DBE Plan. We use only race-neutral goals at this time. Augusta, Georgia expects to meet or exceed its currently established race-neutral goal of 4.83 percent and will not implement a race conscious goal. The assumptions based on spending history and current projections. If for any reason, Augusta, Georgia does not anticipate being able to meet its race- neutral goal then it would update the DBE program to add a race-conscious participation measures. Page 24 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 Additional information is included as Attachment 6 of this program. Section 26.51(d-g) Contract Goals Augusta, Georgia will use contract goals to meet any portion of the overall goal that would be unmet using race-neutral means. Contract goals are established so that, over the period to which the overall goal applies, they will cumulatively result in meeting any portion of our overall goal that is not projected to be met through the use of race- neutral means. Augusta, Georgia will establish contract goals only on those FTA-assisted contracts that have subcontracting possibilities. We need not establish a contract goal on every such contract, and the size of the contract goals will be adapted to the circumstance of each such contract (e.g. type and location of work, availability of DBEs to perform the particular type of work). Augusta, Georgia will express our contract goals as a percentage of the total amount of a DOT - assisted contract for new procurement. Section 26.53 Good Faith Efforts Procedures Demonstration of good faith efforts 26.53 (a) & (c) In those instances where a contract-specific DBE goal is included in a procurement/solicitation, Augusta, Georgia will not award the contract to a bidder who does not either (1) meet the contract goals with verified, countable DBE participation; or (2) document it has made adequate good faith efforts to meet the DBE contract goal, even though it was unable to do so. It is the obligation of the bidder to demonstrate it has made sufficient good faith efforts prior to submission of its bid. The bidder can demonstrate that it has done so either by meeting the contract goal or documenting good faith efforts. Form 1 & 2 for Demonstration of Good Faith Efforts are presented as Attachment 3. Page 25 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 Evaluation of Good Faith Efforts: The following personnel are responsible for determining whether a bidder/offeror who has not met the contract goal has documented sufficient good faith efforts to be regarded as responsive: Yvonne Gentry DBE Liaison Augusta, Georgia Transit 530 Greene Street, Room 306 Augusta, Georgia 30901 (T) 706 821-2406 (F) 706 821-4228 ygentry@augustaga.gov The process used to determine whether good faiths efforts have been made by a bidder are as follows: · Selecting portions of the work to be performed by DBEs in order to increase the likelihood that DBE goals will be achieved. This includes, where appropriate, breaking out the contract work items into economically feasible units to facilitate DBE participation, even when the prime contractor might otherwise prefer to perform these work items with its own forces. · Providing interested DBEs with adequate information about the plans, specifications and requirements of the contract in a timely manner to assist them in responding to a solicitation. · Negotiating in good faith with interested DBEs. It is the bidder's responsibility to make a portion of the work available to DBE subcontractors and suppliers and to select those portions of the work or material needs consistent with the available DBE subcontractors and suppliers, so as to facilitate DBE participation. Page 26 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 Evidence of such negotiation includes the names, addresses and telephone numbers of DBEs that were considered; a description of the information provided regarding the plans and specifications for the work selected for subcontracting; and evidence as to why additional agreements could not be reached for DBEs to perform work. · Effectively using the services of available minority/women community organizations; minority/women contractor's groups; local, state and Federal minority/women business assistance offices; and other organizations as allowed on a case-by-case basis to provide assistance in the recruitment and placement of DBEs. · Review of the performance of other bidders in meeting the contract goal in comparison to the successful bidders' good faith efforts. Augusta, Georgia will ensure that all information is complete and accurate and adequately documents the bidder's good faith efforts before we can commit to the performance of the contract by the bidder/offerer. Information to be submitted 26.53(b) Augusta, Georgia treats bidders/offerers' compliance with good faith efforts requirements as a matter of responsiveness. Each separate solicitation for which a contract goal has been established will require the bidders/offerers to submit the following information: 1.

Written and signed documentation of commitment to use a DBE subcontractor whose participation it submits to meet a contract goal; 5. Written and signed confirmation from the DBE that it is participating in the contract as provided in the prime contractors commitment and 6. If the contract goal is not met, evidence of good faith efforts. Administrative reconsideration 26.53(d) Within five days of being informed by Augusta, Georgia that it is not responsive because it has not documented sufficient good faith efforts, a bidder/offerer may request administrative reconsideration. Bidder/offerer should make this request in writing to the following reconsideration official: Janice Allen Jackson, Administrator of Augusta, Georgia, 535 Greene Street, Room 801, Augusta, Georgia 30901; 706 821-2400. The reconsideration official will not have played any role in the original determination that the bidder/offerer did not document sufficient good faith efforts. As part of this reconsideration, the bidder/offerer will have the opportunity to provide written documentation or argument concerning the issue of whether it met the goal or made adequate good faith efforts to do so. The bidder/offerer will have the opportunity to meet in person with Augusta, Georgia's reconsideration official to discuss the issue of whether it met the goal or made adequate good faith efforts to Page 28 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 do. Augusta, Georgia will send the bidder/offerer a written decision on reconsideration, explaining the basis for finding that the bidder did or did not meet the goal or make adequate good faith efforts to do so. The result of the reconsideration process is not administratively appealable to the Department of Transpiration. Good Faith Efforts when a DBE is replaced on a contract 26.53(e) Augusta, Georgia requires that prime contractors not terminate a DBE subcontractor listed on a bid/contract with a DBE contract goal without Augusta, Georgia's prior written consent. Prior written consent will only be provided where there is a "good cause" for termination of the DBE firm as established by Section 26.53 (f) (3) of the DBE regulation. Before transmitting to Augusta, Georgia its request to terminate, the prime contractor must give notice in writing to the DBE of its intent to do so. A copy of this notice must be provided to Augusta, Georgia prior to consideration of the request to terminate. The DBE will then have five (5) days to respond and advise Augusta, Georgia of why it objects to the proposed termination. In those instances where "good cause" exists to terminate the DBE's contract, Augusta, Georgia will require the prime contractor to make good faith efforts to replace a DBE that is terminated or has otherwise failed to complete its work on a contract with another certified DBE, to the extent needed to meet the contract goal. We will require the prime contractor to notify the DBE Liaison officer immediately of the DBE's inability or unwillingness to perform and provide reasonable documentation. In this situation, Augusta, Georgia will require the prime contractor to obtain Augusta's prior approval of the substitute DBE and to provide copies of new or amended subcontracts, or documentation of good Page 29 of 43 Revised 2/02/2015 faith efforts.

Commission Meeting Agenda 3/17/2015 2:00 PM Equipment Rack Purchase for Communication Equipment, Servers and Demarcation of Transmission Media. Department:Information Technology Caption:Motion to approve the purchase of equipment racks to facilitate the installation of communications equipment, servers and the demarcation of transmission media. (Approved by Public Safety Committee March 10, 2015) Background:The equipment racks, currently in use, are not suitable for migration into an ergonomic and energy efficient configuration. The existing racks are over ten (10) years old and will not fit into the new rail system. Analysis:American Power Conversion (APC) was selected as the vendor of choice by the Electrical Design Company being used to design the new Information Technology building. APC was selected to provide the Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS). The UPS will be installed into these racks. Having the same vendor install the UPS and racks is necessary to ensure that all components will fit correctly. This is a state contract purchase using state contract number 99999-SPD-SPD0000021-0005. APC does not sell direct therefore the products will be coming from Southern Computer Warehouse. These new racks are part of a containment system that will increase security, improve equipment reliability and increase the efficiency of HVAC systems. By installing the racks in a configuration that will restrict access to only approved individuals security will be improved. Equipment reliability and longevity will be increased due to improve circulation and elimination of hot spots. HVAC efficiency will be increased as a result of the new configuration’s ability to manipulate air flow. This will result in substantial electrical savings over time. Financial Impact: Alternatives:Continue using the racks that are currently in place. Recommendation:Approve the purchase of equipment racks to facilitate the installation of communications equipment, servers and the demarcation of transmission media. Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: The total amount of this purchase is $161,496.57. Funds, in this amount, are available in Information Technology’s SPLOST V budget. This is a state contract purchase using state contract number 99999-SPD-SPD0000021-0005. REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Procurement. Information Technology. Finance. Law. Administrator. Clerk of Commission Commission Meeting Agenda 3/17/2015 2:00 PM Fire Department Request for Budget Amendment (Smoke Detector Program) Department:Fire Caption:Motion authorize the Augusta Fire Department to receive payment from Aiken Tech for its use of a Fire Department facility and 9 instructors to put on a live fire training last October in the amount of $2,370; and approve the Fire Department request for a budget amendment to the 2015 budget that will allow the Fire Department to utilize these funds to purchase smoke alarms that will be installed in citizen homes free of charge upon request. (Approved by Public Services Committee March 10, 2015) Background:The Augusta Fire Department received payment from Aiken Tech for providing a facility and instructors for a live fire training class in October of 2014. The Fire Department would like to add these funds to the 2015 operating budget for Program Supplies to purchase 100 smoke alarms. These smoke alarms will be used to continue the work started by the Red Cross Smoke Alamr Blitz Program. The Fire Department teamed up with the Red Cross to provided, upon request, working smoke alarms to homes that did not have one at no charge to the citizen. These funds will allow the Fire Department replenish the smoke alarm inventory and keep this service available to the citizens of Augusta. Analysis:According to the U.S. Fire Administration, three out of five home fire deaths result from fires in properties without working smoke alarms. More than 37% of home fire deaths result from fires in which no smoke alarms are present. The risk of dying in a home fire is cut in half in homes with working smoke alarms. Financial Impact:The $2,370 will be added to the operational line item for program supplies in the current 2015 Fire Department Budget. Alternatives: Recommendation:Approve a budget amendment to the 2015 budget that will allow the Fire Department to utilize the $2,370 payment from Aiken Tech for the purchase of smoke alarms that will be provided to the community upon request at no charge. Funds are Available in the Following Accounts: Will increase the current 2015 operational line item for program supplies in the Fire Department Budget REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY: Finance. Law.
