Fleet Maintenance Center Study for Gloucester County Public Schools

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY HISTORY: In early 2016, Gloucester County approached Hudson + Associates Architects about possibility of undertaking a programming study for a new vehicle maintenance and utilities center in conjunction with a master plan for redevelopment of the Old Page Middle School site. The master plan aspect of the Old Page Middle School site was eventually dropped from the scope, and it was agreed that multiple sites would be considered for the new Center. CURRENT SITUATION: Maintenance for current County and School board vehicles and equipment currently takes place in buildings that are generally undersized and poorly suited to all types of vehicles in the respective fleets. Certain major maintenance tasks cannot be performed and must be tasked out to local, private shops. The Sheriff’s Department opted to task all of its vehicle maintenance out to local shops due to shortage of personnel and capabilities to suit its mission-essential needs. Existing facilities are cramped, poorly lit and marginally ventilated. Storage space for spare parts is limited, and the work environment is less-than-pleasant for County personnel. Maintenance is performed in various, scattered buildings. The Utilities Department likewise lacks sufficient maintenance space and has current assets scattered among multiple, marginally-suited buildings and yards. Many County assets such as trailers, and towable equipment (generators, backhoes, mowers, etc.) are stored outside in weather where they deteriorate. While County maintenance personnel are meeting critical needs, they are doing so in facilities that are far less-than-ideal. METHOD OF ANALYSIS: Hudson + Associates Architects undertook the following steps:

Major Tasks: What we looked for: Meetings with key department persons to understand organizational needs

How departments are currently organized; what does each person do?

Meetings with key operational persons to under organization processes

How do personnel interact with each other? With the current facility?

Visits to all existing County maintenance and storage facilities currently in use

What is size, condition and layout of current facilities? Identify deficiencies

Visits to proposed sites within Gloucester County and obtaining local physical and topographical data

Size and proportions of site, elevation above floodplain, access from streets, access to utilities, opportunity to expand

Visits to facilities in other neighboring counties that are similar to the one proposed by this Study

Evaluate comparative size, amenities, functional layout, what works well and signs of potential obsolescence

PROPOSED SOLUTION: This Study contemplates design and construction of a new, consolidated fleet maintenance and utility operations center to suit requirement of the County, Utilities Department, School Board, and Sheriff’s Department. Included will be the following major program elements:

Vehicle maintenance bays (garage) and related shop area

School bus operations office

Utilities Department office for maintainers

Toilets, lockers and showers for maintenance personnel

Page 10

Page 11: Joint meeting e packet

Fleet Maintenance Center Study for Gloucester County Public Schools

Combined spares and parts storage with centralized inventory management

Vehicle wash bay (indoor)

Vehicle fueling island (outdoor, covered) and oil-water separator

Central warehouse storage for Utilities Department and County equipment

Outdoor covered storage for trailers, trailerable equipment and materials

Surface parking for fleet vehicles and personnel’s own vehicles SITES FOR CONSIDERATION: The ideal site will have the following attributes:

Sufficient acreage to suit outdoor parking of the school bus fleet and other County vehicles

Suitable acreage and proportions for optimal workflow of vehicles, parking and fueling

Sufficient area to suit facility footprints, outdoor material storage, and stormwater management

Sufficient area to allow for future expansion of building(s) without adverse impact on assets to remain

Safety and ease of ingress into, and egress from, the site at adjacent roadways

Availability of utilities to support building(s) and site amenities

Good vertical elevation above floodplain, and minimal impact from wetlands

Good soils for bearing pavements and building foundations

Sufficient acreage for future expansion

Three sites were considered:

Old Page Middle School site (off Rt. 17, near current School Transportation Ctr.)

Land adjacent to the T.C Walker Center (off T.C. Walker Road)

Land Adjacent to the new Page Middle School site (off T.C. Walker Road)

The site adjacent to the T.C. Walker Center was ruled out fairly quickly because it was too small and was predominantly at too low a vertical elevation to build upon. Also, to build the facility at this site would constrain future reuse of the T.C. Walker Center as a school, if desired. As for the other two sites:

Old Page Middle School: site is favorable in size and flexibility, but currently lacks ideal access to Route 17. Also, the site’s configuration and current location of the water tower impact the layout and future expansion. The existing School Transportation facility, however, may be re-purposed for use by Utilities Maintenance, reducing need for new construction to suits its needs. Lastly, this site may have higher and beneficial use for economic development.

Land Adjacent to the new Page Middle School: This site is also favorable in size and flexibility, and offers good access to T.C. Walker Road without adverse impact upon traffic flow in and out of the Middle School. Its size and proportions are amenable to efficient use and future expansion. This is a ‘virgin’ site, however, and will incur higher costs to clear to support with new utilities. Also, T.C. Walker Road must be widened to add new turn lanes into the center.

Fleet Maintenance Center Study for Gloucester County Public Schools

PROPOSED BUILDING AND SITE DEVELOPMENT COSTS: A

preliminary, estimated budget is included herein that contemplates

construction of the new, consolidated Transportation and Utility Center and

all related site development. A separate estimate is included for each site,

due to the differing conditions and programmatic elements at each site.

Please note that:

The overall figures are for budgeting purposes only, and is not based on definitive design of the building(s) or site amenities.

Additional site investigation, such as geotechnical investigation of soils may be warranted.

The overall figures assume that the primary maintenance garage and warehouse facility will be built using pre-engineered building structure and walls built at least partial height of masonry for durability.

A single-story building is preferred to avoid cost of stairwells and an elevator.

Conceptual building floor plans and overall site plans (one for each site) are offered herein upon which the estimated costs are based. TIMETABLE TO IMPLEMENT: The proposed Transportation and Utility Center can be designed and built as soon as funding is authorized by Gloucester County. Some time constraints to consider include:

Once approved and design is authorized to commence, a detailed survey of the selected site will be required. An updated wetlands delineation may be required, depending upon the selected site and preferred layout. This can take up to 8-10 weeks to accomplish.

Geotechnical investigation will be required to determine foundation and pavement subgrade requirements.

There should be no unusual environmental permitting required; however, up to 90 days should be allowed for County review of the definitive site plan and stormwater management design. This can be expedited as early in the design process as possible to reduce impact on overall timeframe to permit the project.

6-8 months should be allowed for design, which includes the aforementioned civil design and environmental review.

6 weeks should be allowed for bidding.

4 weeks should be allowed for review of bids and determination of an acceptable low bidder. The apparent low bidder should submit its insurance paperwork and performance bond for review prior to award of contract.

Due to the extensive sitework required, 16-18 months should be allowed for construction following award of contract.

Other time factors to consider:

30-60 days should be allowed to equip and furnish the new facility, as well as to set up data and communication systems.

The ideal time to relocate operations and vehicle maintenance to the completed facility, from perspective of schools and bus transportation, is mid-summer. There is no favored time for Utilities or County vehicle maintenance.

There will be some costs to move the operation and maintenance entities into a new facility. It may be advantageous to bring in a company specializing in such moves to shorten the downtime of the various units.

OVERVIEW – STUDY OBJECTIVE Assess condition of existing transportation administration and maintenance

facilities

Gain understanding of current and projected (future) operational and maintenance needs by interviewing Schools & County staff

Explore efficiencies gained by consolidating Schools and County fleet maintenance into a single facility. Also explore consolidation with the County Utilities Maintenance Division.

Evaluate and compare up to three (3) sites for locating the consolidated facility at Old Page MS, T.C.Walker Center & next to New Page MS

Prepare a cost model to develop the project for funding purposes

Page 13

Page 14: Joint meeting e packet

CURRENT SITUATION Current facilities are antiquated, undersized and crowded

Buildings no longer suited to size and diversity of vehicles to be maintained

Working conditions are marginal, and poor at County Garage

Several tasks are outsourced that could otherwise be performed

Spare parts often not readily on hand (lack of storage)

Unsheltered vehicles and equipment deteriorate more rapidly

No manpower or capacity to maintain Sheriff ’s vehicles

Inefficient use of manpower due to shortage of personnel

SITES – COMPARATIVE DISCUSSIONOld Page

School site

New PageSchool site

Lesser cost to develop; minimal clearing and grading required Utilities already on (or near) site that appear adequate, including fueling Access to Route 17 remains configured as-is today – not ideal, but adequate Improving access to Rt. 17 not essential; but could be quite costly Re-utilizes existing Transportation office/garage; well-suited to Utilities

Maintenance Division needs Portion of existing site remains undeveloped – available for future expansion

Higher cost to develop Relatively high site costs for clearing, earthwork and grading, new utilities Higher cost to build 100% new space for Utilities Maintenance Division Good access off T.C. Walker Road for optimized ingress/egress; but must

widen T.C. Walker Road with new turn lanesMore flexible site arrangement & internal movement than Old Page Building at New Page site allows alternative use at Old Page site;

land used for this project is no longer available for a future schoolPage 42

SITES – “BOTTOM LINE” COMPARISON

Old PageSchool site

New PageSchool site

Lower cost to redevelopAccess to Route 17, if unchanged, remains adequate but less than

ideal, and can present safety challenges for left-turning traffic exiting the site

Re-purposes the existing School Transportation office & garage for use by Utilities Maintenance Division

COMMENTS RECEIVED & RESPONSES Incorporate Mosquito Control Vehicle Parking The Mosquito Control vehicles (2) and its chemical storage/handling area

will be located inside the Warehouse with Utilities Maintenance, partitioned off separately from other functions. At the Old Page site, this amounts to one bay of the existing Schools Transportation Building.

Recommend extending 8-inch water lines into site in order to include fire sprinklers at the buildings and support new fire hydrantsSprinklers will be required at the main Admin./Garage building, but will

likely not be required at the Warehouse due to its size and function. New fire hydrants will be required at either site, and the cost estimate will be increased to include more 8-inch water piping.

Page 44

Page 45: Joint meeting e packet

COMMENTS RECEIVED & RESPONSES Consider reducing the number of buses that need to be stored on the

site to 160; and consolidate the buses in such a manner that, when all parked on the site, they occupy as minimal a footprint as necessary, to reduce acreage developed and new impervious surface.Will do. There may be reduction of impervious area by as much as 15,000-

30,000 SF, resulting in minor cost savings at both sites for new pavement, earthwork/grading, and stormwater treatment.

Revisit the estimated cost for sanitary sewer force main extension at the New Page Site. Will do. Additional cost (minor) for a new force main to the New Page Middle

School pump station will be included. Will discuss further with Utilities ifUpgrade to the School pump station and/or force main beyond is needed. Thesewer discharge rate can be reduced with a holding tank at the New Page site.

Glossary• Enrollment:

• All students the division is responsible for reporting

• Average Daily Membership:• the K-12 enrollment figure used to distribute state per pupil funding

that includes students with disabilities ages 5-21, and students for whom English is a second language who entered school for the first time after reaching their 12th birthday, and who have not reached their 22nd birthday; preschool and postgraduate students are not included in ADM

• average daily membership is determined by dividing the TOTAL aggregate daily membership (days present plus days absent) by the number of days school was in session, from the first day of the school term through the last school day in March.

• Composite Index:• a formula to determine the state and local government shares of K-12

education program costs, which is expressed as a ratio, indicating the local percentage share of the cost of education programs; for example, a locality with a composite index of 0.3000 would pay 30 percent and the state would pay 70 percent of the costs
