Specifications include, but are not limited to: The project will have three key phases. Phase One - physical and operational evaluation of Police Department’s current facilities Evaluate the existing space of the Police Department Facilities, identifying both physical and operations issues related to space quality, layout and detail. The analysis must include areas that do not meet current appropriate recommendations for law enforcement design or current life-safety codes. The physical and operational assessment shall include, but not be limited to the following: • Providing an objective evaluation of the existing Police Department facilities • Reviewing the condition of the building’s basic systems including structural, electrical, plumbing and HVAC systems and identifying required steps and estimated costs to address any deficiencies as well as identifying future system replacement/upgrade needs and estimated costs. • Identification of code violations and areas that conflict with current recommended law enforcement design guidelines including: International Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP) Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA) Phase Two - evaluation of current and future Police Department space needs and defines the anticipated life cycle of the proposed solutions The needs assessment shall include, but not be limited to the following: • Interviews and additional progress meetings with Police Department representatives on current and future staffing projections and confirm organizational structure • Accepted space standards based on similar facilities and site area requirements. • Verifying, and updating current Police Department requirements leading to a right-sizing of space requirements. • Consultants shall use a nationally recognized system of space evaluation using resources from the IACP, CALEA and the consultant’s own experience to determine the space required for each staff member based on title, rank, and/or function. Using that system, a total space needs assessment shall be rendered for both current and future projections. • Space needs shall include, but not be limited to, public reception space, cubical/office space, locker storage, conference and training rooms, interview room, Sally port, booking area, break rooms, wash rooms, records, property/evidence storage, information technology requirements, report writing, ‘crash pad’/sleeping rooms, parking/fleet area, workout room, etc. Storage space either attached or detached for ancillary equipment such as: ATV’s, snowmobiles, trailers, etc. • Consultants should also take into consideration the possible use of the prior Violations Bureau located at 85 Park Street. Phase Three - Site recommendations and conceptual designs of future Police Department needs The recommendations for future needs and designs shall include, but not be limited to the following: • Results of the phase one and two investigations and generally accepted space needs associated with Police operations similar to those of the Lewiston Police Department • A spatial needs assessment/architectural program for the Police Department that evaluates current and future needs (20+ year horizon) and the anticipated life cycle of the facility and site
