Staff Summary
* Lake County has identified the need to explore the potential of building a replacement Emergency Operations Center (EOC), 9-1-1, and ETSB Facility on the County's Libertyville Campus.
* Phase One planning services will provide limited planning and conceptual design services, consisting of building program development, preliminary site and building plans, cost estimating, and a summary report.
* Since the proposed facility is anticipated to be located on the same site as the proposed Consolidated Public Safety Facility, this study will be performed simultaneously with the design development of the Consolidated Public Safety Facility - providing an opportunity to evaluate synergies and opportunities to coordinate the overall design between the two facilities.

* In accordance with the Local Government Professional Services Selection Act, a firm may be selected directly by the County if the cost of architectural and engineering services for the project is expected to be less than $40,000.
* The contract for Phase One Design is estimated at $30,640, with $500 in reimbursables and was included and budgeted as part of the Fiscal Year 2019 Capital Improvement Program.
