CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS PLAN
FREDERICK COUNTY
FY 2021-2026
INTRODUCTION
Section §15.2-2239 of the Code of Virginia assigns the responsibility for preparation of plans for capital outlays to the local Planning
Commissions, The Capital Improvements Plan (GIP) consists of a schedule for major capital expenditures for the County for the
ensuing five years.
The CIP is updated annually. Projects are removed from the plans as they are completed or as priorities change. The plan is
intended to assist the Board of Supervisors in preparation of the County budget. In addition to determining priorities for capital
expenditures, the County must also ensure that projects contained within the CIP conform to the Comprehensive Plan. Specifically,
the projects are reviewed with considerations regarding health, safety, and the general welfare of the public, and the policies of the
Comprehensive Plan. Once the CIP is adopted, it becomes a component of the 2035 Comprehensive Plan and provides a link
between the documents and potential proffered contributions made with future rezoning projects.
The inclusion of projects to the CIP is in no way an indication that Frederick County will be undertaking these projects. The CIP is
strictly advisory; it is intended for use, as a capital facilities planning document, not for requesting funding allocations. Once
adopted, project priorities may change throughout the year based on changing circumstances. It is also possible that projects may
not be funded during the year that is indicated in the CIP. The status of any project becomes increasingly uncertain the further in
the future it is projected.
1
PROJECT RECOMMENDATIONS
Frederick County Public Schools
Frederick County Public Schools continue to commence and complete capital projects that have been priorities from previous years.
The top capital improvement priority for the Schools is the Indian Hollow Elementary School Renovation. The James Wood High
School additions and renovations is the second highest priority, followed by the Armel Elementary School renovation and expansion.
Parks & Recreation
The top capital improvement priority for Parks and Recreation is the Abrams Creek Greenway Trail. This facility would provide
recreational opportunities for residents of this corridor along with the surrounding communities and was emphasized in the
Senseny/Eastern Frederick Urban Areas Plan. Other top priorities include a recreation center, Old Charlestown Road Park
development, and the Indoor Aquatic Center.
Handley Regional Library
The Handley Regional Library recommends three projects. The library's top priority is a new library branch in the Gainesboro area.
The second and third priorities are for new library branches throughout the County which include the areas of Senseny/Greenwood
Road and Route 522 South; both of which are anticipated to be located within the UDA (Urban Development Area) in locations
consistent with the approved area plans -the Senseny/Eastern Frederick Area Plan, and the Southern Frederick Area Plan.
County Administration
There are two requests from Public Works—the Gore Convenience site expansion and the Double Toll Gate Convivence Site.
County Administration projects continue to be the County Office Annex (Former Sunnyside Plaza Shopping Center), the joint County
Administration and School Administration Building and the future replacement of the Joint Judicial Center. General Government
Capital Expenditures is also included in the CIP — this item enhances the connection between the CIP and proffered contributions
made to mitigate the impacts of development projects. This item addresses those general government capital expenditures that
may fall below the established $100,000 departmental threshold.
2
Fire and Rescue
The top project for Fire and Rescue is the construction Fire & Rescue Station #22, a new facility located in the vicinity of Route 277
that would also provide the ability for an annex facility for other County-related offices. Also identified as priority 1A is the
apparatus needed for this facility. Project two includes the construction of Station #23, a new facility located in the vicinity of
Crosspointe that would also provide the ability for an annex facility for other County-related offices. Also identified as priority 2A is
the apparatus needed for this facility.
Fire and Rescue Volunteer Company Capital Equipment Requests
The revolving fund in the amount of$1,000,000 for the benefit of Fire and Rescue Services was established remains a component of
the CIP. This capital expenditure fund is for purchasing additional and replacement capital equipment fire and rescue vehicles and
equipment that may fall below the $100,000 guideline established by the Finance Committee. It was determined that the inclusion
of such a priority would be beneficial in ensuring that significant capital expenses are identified in the County's capital planning and
budget process. This project is primarily for the benefit of the individual Volunteer Fire and Rescue Companies.
Greenwood Fire Station has included requests for the expansion/upgrade of the living quarters and the replacement of two
ambulances. Middletown Fire Station is seeking to demolish their original building and first addition and rebuild and connect to the
third addition. Clearbrook Fire Station is seeking to demolish their existing structure and build a new station. Stephens City Fire
Station is seeking to replace tower 11, and the replacement of two medic units.
Sheriff's Office
The Sheriff's Office has included five projects in their CIP. The top project is the construction of an eight-bay steel building for
housing of large, specialized vehicles that require coverage. Other projects include replacement law enforcement vehicles, mobile
and portable radios, and a firearms training simulator.
Public Safety Communications
The Project 25 Public Safety Radio Network is top public safety—communications priority. This project includes the purchase,
construction, and deployment of Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials (APCO) International Project 25 (P25) radio
3
communications system to support mission-critical public safety communications within the County. This system will provide radio
and paging communications for the Frederick County Sheriff's Department, Frederick County Fire & Rescue, volunteer fire & rescue
companies, and the Department of Public Safety Communications.
Transportation Committee
The Transportation Committee continues to provide project requests for the CIP. Virginia State Code allows for transportation
projects to be included within a locality's CIP. Funding for transportation project requests will likely come from developers and
revenue sharing. Implementation of transportation projects does not take away funding for generalized road improvements.
The Transportation Committee has included 20 priority projects. The top three priorities include Route 277 widening and safety
improvements (Phase 1), Exit 313 Bridge Replacement and Capacity Improvements, and Renaissance Drive (Phase 2). The inclusion
of the Eastern Road Plan Improvements item once again emphasizes the connection between the CIP and potential proffered
contributions made with rezoning projects which are aimed at mitigating potential transportation impacts identified in the
Comprehensive Plan.
Winchester Regional Airport
Funding for airport projects is derived through a complex formula where the federal and state governments contribute a majority of
the funding, with Frederick County and the other jurisdictions providing the remaining funding. The construction of a new general
aviation terminal to support future airport operations continues to be number one in the CIP, followed by the Taxiway "A"
Relocation (design/construction). Other projects focus on land and easement acquisition in support of airport development to meet
Federal Aviation requirements. The vast majority of the funding for these improvements comes from the FAA and VDA.

THE CIP TABLES-CONTENT DESCRIPTIONS
The Capital Improvements Plan tables, on the following four pages, contains a list of the capital improvement projects proposed for
the ensuing five years. A description of the information in this table is explained below.
Projects Ranked by Department -The priority rating assigned by each agency or department for their requested projects.
County Contribution - The estimated dollar value that will be contributed for each project. This value is listed by individual fiscal
years and by total contributions over the five-year period. The total contribution column, located to the right of the fiscal year
columns, does not include debt service projections.
Notes - Indicates the footnotes that apply to additional funding sources for particular projects.
Total Project Costs-The cost for each project, including the County allocations and other funding sources.
PROJECT FUNDING
The projects included in Table 1 have a total projected cost to the County of$339,062,907, this figure excludes Airport requests and
transportation proiects as these are primarily funded through other sources.
While the CIP is primarily used to cover the next five years, much of the project costs have been identified beyond the next five
yea rs.
• School projects are funded through a combination of loans from the Virginia Public School Authority and the Virginia
Literary Fund.
• Funding for Parks and Recreation Department projects will come from the unreserved fund balance of the County. The
Parks and Recreation Commission actively seeks grants and private sources of funding for projects not funded by the
County.
• The inclusion of transportation projects to the CIP is in no way an indication that Frederick County will be undertaking
these projects. Funding projects will continue to come from a combination of state and federal funds, developer
contributions, and revenue sharing.
• Airport projects will be funded by contributions from the federal, state, and local governments. The local portion may
include contributions from Frederick, Clarke, Shenandoah, Warren Counties, and the City of Winchester.

APPENDIX
PROJECT DESCRIPTIONS
Frederick County Public Schools Project Priority List
PRIORITY 1—Indian Hollow Elementary School Renovation
Description: Indian Hollow Elementary School opened in 1988 and has served continuously as an elementary school since that
time. The school and auxiliary buildings contain 59,065 square feet. The school has a program capacity of 442 students.
Currently the building serves grades K-5. This renovation needs to address the exterior wall, windows, & doors, and the HVAC.
Repairing the exterior walls is a pressing need.
Capital Cost: $12,000,000
Justification: Indian Hollow Elementary School is 32 years old and renovation is needed to these few areas to empower FCPS
staff to operate the building economically and efficiently until a full renovation can be accomplished.
Construction Schedule: FY 23-24
PRIORITY 2—James Wood High School Renovations and Additions
Description: James Wood High School opened in 1980 and has served as a high school since that time. The school and all
auxiliary buildings total 229,187 square feet and has a program capacity of 1,283 students. The building serves grades 9-12. The
building is in good condition; however, several major areas need to be addressed in a renovation. Foci of the renovation will
include modification of instructional areas to support modern, student-centered instructional delivery, mechanical, electrical,
plumbing, technology,finishes, and site.
Capital Cost: $73,600,000
Justification: James Wood High School is 40 years old. Renovations and additions are needed to a number of areas to support
effective, economical, and efficient operation of the school for years to come. This school will be renovated to be more like the
4th HS, the new Frederick County MS, and the Aylor MS replacement, with a variety of learning spaces to meet the needs of a
variety of learning styles and to impart skills necessary in today's working world.
Construction Schedule: FY 24-25
PRIORITY 3-Armel Elementary School Addition and Renovation
Description: Armel ES opened in 1991 and has served continuously as a K-5 elementary school since that time. The school
contains 70,281 square feet and has a program capacity of 580 students. As of September 15, 2020, the school has 607
students. Eight classrooms will be added to Armel ES, to accommodate the additional growth at Lake Frederick. The existing
15
facility will be updated as needed and core areas partially renovated to serve the additional students.
Capital Cost: $16,10,000
Justification: Armel Elementary School is in good condition; however, growth in the attendance zone will need to be
addressed through the addition of classrooms to the facility.
Construction Schedule: FY 23-24
PRIORITY 4—School Board Office IT Addition
Description: This project would put the entire department together in one purpose-built facility. It would be a separate building
located near the Administrative Offices on James Wood Middle School property. The new facility would be a 15,000 square foot
building with storage areas, work areas, offices, cubicles, conference rooms, a customer service area, customer parking, a loading
dock, and parking for IT work vehicles.
Capital Cost: $6,400,000
Justification: Frederick County Public Schools IT Department is currently located in three areas inside the Administrative Offices
and four trailers behind the offices. Being situated in multiple locations that are not purpose built for the administration of the
school division's technology systems creates significant time-consuming inefficiencies.
Construction Schedule: FY 23-24
PRIORITY 5—Fourth High School
Description: The new high school project is proposed to serve students grades 9-12 with a program capacity of 1,250 students
and will address anticipated growth in high school student enrollment in the school division. The site is located at the end of
Justes Drive behind Admiral Byrd MS. This school will be designed for collaborative education, similar to Frederick County MS,
with a variety of learning spaces to meet the needs of a variety of learning styles and to impart skills necessary in today's working
world.
Capital Cost: $94,000,000
Justification: This project will address expected growth in high school student enrollment in the school division over the next
several years. We propose to open the new high school in the fall of 2027.
Construction Schedule: Beyond 2026
16
PRIORITY 6—Sherando High School Renovations and Addition
Description: Sherando High School opened in 1993. The facility contains 239,517 square feetand has a program capacity of 1,323
students serving grades 9-12. Several major areas need to be addressed in a renovation, including reorganization and addition of
classroom and storage space to better equip the building to support collaborative education. Because we want the facility to last
another 30 years, facility infrastructure will be renewed and updated, and finishes will be refreshed. Other areas to be addressed
are security,traffic safety, and gender equity in athletic facilities.
Capital Cost: TBD
Justification: Sherando is 27 years old and will be at least 32 years old by the time we start to renovate it. Renovations are
needed to ensure the economical, efficient, and effective operation of the school for years to come. Modern instruction requires
that a variety of learning spaces be provided, including collaborative spaces of varying sizes and project labs (similar to maker
spaces). Transportation safety concerns exist on and around the school site at Sherando during arrival and dismissal. Sherando
does not have a softball field on site, instead using a softball field in Sherando Park. This represents an equity issue between boys'
and girls' sports and is contrary to FCPS' policy of equity between boys and girls sports.
Construction Schedule:TBD
PRIORITY 7—Apple Pie Ridge Elementary School Phase 2 Renovation
Description: Apple Pie Ridge Elementary School opened in 1974 and has served continuously as an elementary school since that
time. The school and auxiliary building contain 65,120 square feet. The school has a program capacity of 509 students. Currently
the building serves grades K-5. The building is in good condition; however, several major areas need to be addressed, including
open classroom space, ADA compliance, energy conservation, security, and upgrades of fire alarms, electrical, plumbing, and
mechanical systems.
Capital Cost: TBD
Justification: Apple Pie Ridge Elementary School is 46 years old and renovation is needed to a number of areas to ensure the
economical and efficient operations of the school for years to come.
Construction Schedule:TBD
17
Parks& Recreation Department Project Priority List
PRIORITY 1—Abrams Creek Trail
Description: 10' wide, asphalt, shared-use trail along Abrams Creek. From Senseny Road to Channing Drive. It is estimated the trail
will have six bridge stream crossings and will be approximately 3 miles in length. As outlined below, the project is envisioned in
three phases of approximately 1 mile each. Each phase will have logical beginning and ending points and be usable trail sections in
themselves. Phase 1 from Senseny Road to Woodstock Lane. Phase 2 from Woodstock Lane to Woody's Place, and Phase 3 from
Woody's Place to Channing Drive. VDOT Transportation Alternatives (TA) Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) funds are
allocated for the project in the schedule above. Funds for Phases 11 and III are not yet secured. Grant funding will be pursued for
these phases.
Capital Cost: $3,828,900
Justification: This facility would provide recreational opportunities for residents and provide an alternate means of entering and
exiting the City of Winchester from Eastern Frederick County. This project is intended to meet the needs of the community as
identified in the 2017 Frederick County Parks and Recreation Community Survey, and the 2012 Virginia Outdoors Plan Survey.
Construction Schedule: Phase I— FY 22-23, Phase 11 and III— Beyond FY 26
The construction schedule will follow VDOT funding. Phase I is funded through VDOT with design scheduled for FY 21, construction
FY 22, and 23. Phase 1-3 Beyond FY 26
PRIORITY 2—Recreation Center
Description: The Recreation Center project would be approximately 44,000 square feet and include an indoor area large enough to
accommodate a minimum of two basketball courts. This court area would also be designed for utilization by indoor soccer, baseball,
softball, wrestling, volleyball, tennis, and badminton with the installation of in-floor sleeves and drop curtains or partitions. This
area could also be used for special events such as dances, proms, music festivals, garden, and home, outdoor, craft, antique, quilt, or
boat shows, thus providing a flexible facility for a multitude of activities to take place at one time. The facility would also house a
fitness center, multi-purpose rooms, office, storage, and locker rooms.
Capital Cost: $9,900,000
Justification: Since its inception, the Parks and Recreation Department has relied significantly on the use of the county public
schools to house recreation programs. This arrangement adequately addressed Recreation Center needs for a time, however the
18
department currently offers over 250 sections of programs, creating a situation where the department is limited in its ability to meet
the programming and facility needs of the county residents. A Recreation Center facility will facilitate the department to meet
citizen programming demands and provide the area with a facility to attract new businesses to the community. This facility would
be available to all area residents.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 23-24
PRIORITY 3—Old Charlestown Road Park Development
Description: Old Charlestown Road Park, situated on land proffered by the Snowden Bridge development provides land for the
provision of an active recreation park. The above park is to include athletic fields suitable for league play. Fields, restroom, and
parking are part of the park concept.
Capital Cost: $3,400,000
Justification: The overall park design is informed by the Snowden Bridge (formerly Stephenson Village) rezoning proffer of 2003
and public input sessions in 2020. Plans are to provide rectangular fields and hard surface courts at this location. There are no
public rectangular fields in the north of Frederick County.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 21-22
PRIORITY 4—Indoor Aquatic Facility
Description: The approximately 35,000sf building will likely house a 10-lane competitive pool, 6 lane warm water teaching pool,
meeting rooms, shower and changing rooms, and facilities support areas. The above facility would meet the swimming needs of the
community, including HS level swim teams.
Capital Cost: $12,835,000
Justification: There are no public indoor public pools in Frederick County. By constructing the indoor pool, it would permit the
department to meet competition needs, instructional needs, citizen programming provide a nucleus to attract new businesses to the
community. This project is intended to meet the needs of the community as identified in the 2017 Frederick County Parks and
Recreation Community Survey. This facility would be available to all area residents. The construction of this project will provide a
facility to offer competitive swim and year-round recreational programming.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 22-23
19
PRIORITY S—Gym Addition—Jordan Springs Elementary School
Description: This project brings the Jordan Springs Elementary School into the Cooperative Use framework for shared school and
community uses. Expanding the gymnasium from elementary size to full size (comparable to Orchard View, Greenwood MITI,
Evendale, and Gainesboro Elementary School Gyms), and adding community multi-purpose room space to the proposed school site.
Capital Cost: $1,400,000
Justification: The model in place since Orchard View Elementary was built in 2000 added gymnasium and multipurpose space to
subsequent elementary schools, as these schools are located where population growth is present. Growth in community
programming, camps, and indoor sport leagues continues to create demand for more gymnasium and multi-purpose space. Adding
pressure for this location is that there are no community center spaces in the Stonewall District, while population continues to
increase.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 22-23
PRIORITY 6-Water Slide/Spray ground/ Building Renovation
Description: Upgrade the outdoor swimming pools at both Clearbrook and Sherando Parks. Upgrade would involve the removal of
the diving boards and the installation of one 50' water slide and one 75' water slide at each pool. The upgrade would also include
the addition of a spray ground with 10-12 features at each pool.
Capital Cost: $970,000
Justification: To provide recreational opportunities for the Clearbrook Park and Sherando Park service area. Frederick County Parks
and Recreation Department operates two outdoor swimming pools at the regional parks. These facilities are over 20 years old and
were constructed with two diving boards as the main feature for each pool. Swimming pool attendance has trended decline in
recent years and users are requesting different water features. The addition of two water slides and a spray ground to each pool
facility will appeal to families and increase interest in visiting the outdoor pool facilities.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 22-23
PRIORITY 7—Sherando Park Area 1 Recreation Access Phase 2
Description: This project continues the development vision for the NW area of Sherando Park located north of Rt. 277 as shown in
the 2016 North Sherando Park Master Plan update. Continuing the newly installed Line Drive from Warrior Drive to Landgrant Lane,
parking, restroom building, and dog park are elements of this phase.
20
Capital Cost: $1,415,000
Justification: This facility would provide recreational opportunities for the entire Frederick County area. This project is intended to
meet the needs of the community as identified in the 2017 Frederick County Parks and Recreation Community Survey.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 22-23
PRIORITY 8—Clearbrook Park
Description: This project implements the development vision for the NE area of Clearbrook Park. This vision is consistent with the
Clearbrook Park Master Plan. Included are basketball, pickleball courts, and an access trail from the existing pool parking lot.
Capital Cost: $420,000
Justification: This facility would provide recreation opportunities for the entire Frederick County area. It would provide amenities
not readily available in northeastern Frederick County and provide a public pickleball complex for county residents.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 22-23
PRIORITY 9-Sherando Park North-Softball Complex
Description: This project completes the development vision for the 5E area of Sherando Park located north of Rt 277. This vision is
expressed in the 2016 North Sherando Park Master Plan update. Included are softball fields to complete the complex, a shared use
trail segment, roadway, and parking.
Capital Cost: $1,740,000
Justification: This facility would provide recreational opportunities for the entire Frederick County area. In addition to its use as a
recreational facility, it will be used by the Frederick County school system. Presently, there are ten softball/baseball fields within the
county's regional park system. Eight of ten existing fields must serve a dual purpose of facilitating youth baseball as well as youth
and adult softball programs. With the increased usage of these fields, it has become more difficult to facilitate these programs. This
project is needed to meet the growing need for diamond field space and tournament opportunities.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 22-23
21
PRIORITY 10- Sherando Park Area 3 Development
Description: This project completes the development vision for the SW area of Sherando Park located north of Rt 277. This vision is
expressed in the 2016 North Sherando Park Master Plan update. Included are rectangular play fields, a shared use trail segment,
roadway and parking, playground, restroom, and maintenance building.
Capital Cost: $2,460,000
Justification: This facility would provide recreational opportunities for the entire Frederick County area. In addition to its use as a
recreational facility, it will be used by the Frederick County school system. With the development of N Sherando Softball Complex
(CIP item #9) two rectangular play fields will be displaced. The development of area 3 not only addresses this direct result, but also
addresses additional identified needs of the community.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 23-24
PRIORITY 11- Playground Replacement

PRIORITY 12—Sherando Ballfield lighting Replacement
Description: Upgrade the ballfield lighting at Sherando Parks Baseball facilities. The upgrade would involve the removal of the
30/20 FC (footcandle) level fixtures, lamps, and wood poles and replace with 50/30 FC (footcandle) level fixtures, lamps and steel
poles on (4) four fields at Sherando Park. This standard is required by Little League International on all little league fields. LED light
fixtures are specified, as HID fixtures are facing obsolescence.
Acquisition of Parkland (35 acres)
Capital Cost: $945,000
22
Justification: The Parks and Recreation Commission is recommending the ballfield light system be upgraded to achieve the
recommended 50/30 footcandle level lighting on the playing surface. This will facilitate the provision of recreational opportunities
at Sherando Park for the service areas which include all Frederick County residents. The field light fixtures are over twenty-five years
old and are affixed to poles.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 22-23
PRIORITY 13—Community Parks

to a gymnasium. The project includes flooring and air conditioning.
Capital Cost: $630,000
Justification: The model in place since Orchard View Elementary was built in 2000 added gymnasium and multipurpose space to
elementary schools, as these schools are located where population growth is present. Growth in community programming, camps,
and indoor sport leagues continues to create demand for more gymnasium and multi-purpose space.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 24-25
PRIORITY 18—Fleet Trip Vehicles

collocated with other compatible uses should opportunities arise, reducing the acreage demand.
Capital Cost: $6,930,000
Justification: There are no public indoor ice rinks in Frederick County and county residents currently must travel over one hour to
use an indoor ice facility. By constructing the indoor ice rink, it would permit the department to meet competition needs,
instructional needs, citizen programming and leisure demands as well as provide a nucleus to attract new businesses to the
community. This facility would be available to all area residents. The construction of this project will provide a facility to offer year-
round recreational programming for the residents of Frederick County. This project is intended to meet the needs of the community
as identified in the 2017 FCPRD Community Survey.
Construction Schedule: Beyond FY 26
26
Handley Regional Library Prosect Priority List
PRIORITY 1- Frederick County Library Branch -Gainesboro
Description: Construction of a 4,000-5,OOOsf branch library, either as a stand-alone facility or co-located with a planned Frederick
County facility (e.g., the new middle school). Initial parking should be for at least 50 vehicles. The proposed location would be on Rt.
522 in the Gainesboro district, but this could change depending on patterns of library use and on whether donated land could be
located or if co-located with a Frederick County project already in the early planning stage. This projected branch would fit per
discussions with FCPS on existing property and was outlined in a document prepared by FCPS students six years ago.
Capital Cost: $1,849,034
Justification: This branch would serve citizens living in this growing area: In 2018-2019 Frederick County citizens of all ages checked
out 460,355 (traditional) + 96,928 (electronic) = 557,283 items. 32,570 Frederick County residents have library cards and averaged
64.7% of all materials checked out of the regional system. (inactive users were purged 11/18 per state requirements) As of June
2019, 2850 new cards were registered. Frederick County residents, adults, and children registered for library cards for the first time
in 2018-2019. (Note: Due to CV19 shutdown the data above is from the previous FY which is representative of a normal year.) This
population group in the Gainesboro district is not close to a library in the regional system. This new library would serve a sizeable
population of Frederick County that is not being served. The Library will provide materials and programming for citizens from
toddlers to senior citizens. It will provide recreational and educational materials. It will be a prime source for homework help since
it will be open nights and on weekends when school libraries are closed. The library will supply computer access via Wi-H, rental
tablets, and hotspots, via desktop/laptop computers for word processing, as well as other office applications and for Internet usage.
There will be a meeting room of 180 square feet in which area groups can meet.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 2425
PRIORITY 2 - Frederick County Library Branch -Senseny/Greenwood
Description: Construction of a 10,00sf branch library with expansion possible to 15,000 square feet. Initial parking should be for a
minimum of 65 vehicles. The proposed location is yet to be determined and is dependent on future development. The first step of
the project would be the acquisition of the land of 5 to 8 acres.
Capital Cost: TBD
Justification: This branch would serve citizens living in this growing area: In 2018-2019 Frederick County citizens of all ages checked
out 460,355 (traditional) + 96,928 (electronic) = 557,283 items. 32,570 Frederick County residents have library cards and averaged
27
64.7 % of all materials checked out of the regional system. (inactive users were purged 11/18 per state requirements) As of June
2019, 2850 new registrations Frederick County residents, adults, and children, registered for library cards for the first time in 2018-
2019. (Note: Due to CV19 outbreak and shut down the previous year's data is being utilized which is representative of a normal
year.) As noted above the population group in the Redbud/Shawnee district is not close to a library in the regional system. The
Library will provide materials and programming for citizens from toddlers to senior citizens. It will provide recreational and
educational materials. It will be a prime source for homework help since it will be open nights and on weekends when school
libraries are closed. The library will supply computer access via Wi-Fi, rental tablets, and hotspots, via desktop/laptop computers for

PRIORITY 3—522 South Library
Description: Construction of a 7,000sf branch library with expansion possible to 10,000 square feet. Initial parking should be for a
minimum of 35 vehicles. The proposed location is yet to be determined and is dependent on future development. The first step of
the project would be the acquisition of the land of 3 to 4 acre or collocated with the new High School projected to be built in the
same area.
Capital Cost: TBD
Justification: This branch would serve citizens living in this growing area: In 2018-2019 Frederick County citizens of all ages checked
out 460,355 (traditional) + 96,928 (electronic) = 557,283 items. 32,570 Frederick County residents have library cards and averaged
64.7 % of all materials checked out of the regional system. (Inactive users were purged 11/18 per state requirements) As of June
2019, 2850 new registrations (these are end of FY numbers for each year.) Frederick County residents, adults, and children
registered for library cards for the first time in 2018-2019. (Note: Due to CV19 shutdown, previous year data is utilized here as
representative of a normal year) This population group in the Opequon district is not close to a library in the regional system. This
new Library will serve an area of Frederick County largely unserved by our current branches. The Library will provide materials and
programming for citizens from toddlers to senior citizens. It will provide recreational and educational materials. It will be a prime
source for homework help since it will be open nights and on weekends when school libraries are closed. The library will supply
computer access via Wi-R, rental tablets, and hotspots, via desktop/laptop computers for word processing, as well as other office
applications and for Internet usage. There will be a meeting room of 425 square feet in which area groups can meet.

CountV Administration and Public Works Project Priority List
PRIORITY 1 -Gore Citizens Convenience Site
Description: The project will expand refuse capacity and improve efficiency of collection in the Gore community by installing a
surplus trash compactor. Converting the Gore facility from one which utilizes 10 8-yard boxes for refuse collection to one that uses a
trash compactor will drive down collection costs dramatically. In order to accomplish this, and account for improved trash flow and
the construction of a compactor and recycling staging area, the site will be expanded onto an adjoining parcel already owned by the
county.This construction will take place over a period of months.
Capital Cost: $750,000
Justification: A total of 3,785 vehicle trips were made to the facility during August 2020, an increase of 7 percent in usage. 2019
showed a growth of 10 percent. On a typical Sunday, up to 183 vehicles drop of trash, filling the site's refuse collection cans to
capacity. The project will pay for itself in lower refuse collection costs through compaction of solid waste prior to transport. Also,
with a compactor in place, refuse will be contained in an enclosed receiver can, reducing odor, vectors and blowing litter, all of
which are challenges of using open collection cans. Project will provide much-need capacity during heavy trash flow times such as
holidays and weekends. At times, the site is forced to close early. The Public Works Committee supports this project. Basic design
work has already taken place in the current fiscal year. Construction is planned for FY 21/22.
Construction Schedule: Completion in FY 21-22
PRIORITY 2- Double Toll Gate Citizens' Convenience Site - Expansion
Description: The project will expand refuse capacity in the growing Double Tall Gate, Lake Frederick, Stephens City and Armel
communities by adding a second trash compactor and poured concrete wall. The current site is situated in Clarke County and is
leased from the state at no cost. The facility also serves Clarke residents. Clarke shares in collection and disposal costs (21 percent)
while Frederick maintains the site and provides labor. This construction will take place over a period of months.
Capital Cost: $585,000
Justification: A total of 8,654 vehicle trips were made to the facility during August 2020, an increase of 11 percent in usage. 2019
also showed a hike of 11 percent over 2018. An average of 321 vehicle trips are made to the facility each day, making it one of the
county's busiest refuse and recycling sites. With a second compactor in place, capacity and traffic flow would be enhanced and the
need to close early on holidays and weekends eliminated. This location has served the area well since the late 1970's. A recycling
pad and new pavement were added in 2009. Additional upgrades are now necessary in order to meet the growing demands of solid
29
waste management. The Public Works Committee supports this project. Design work would take place in FY 22/23. Construction is
planned for FY 23/24.
