BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
RESOLUTION BY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF FREDERICK
COUNTY, VIRGINIA, APPROVING ADVANCEMENT OF PROPOSAL
FOR A NEW PUBLIC SAFETY BUILDING PURSUANT TO
THE PUBLIC-PRIVATE EDUCATION FACILITIES
AND INFRASTRUCTURE ACT OF 2002
WHEREAS, Frederick County, Virginia (the "County") has an urgent need for a new Public
Safety Building due to the aging and insufficiency of existing facilities, the significant distance
between existing facilities and the constituencies served, and the need to respond to Homeland
Security threats; and
WHEREAS, the County has made a new Public Safety Building a top priority in its Capital
Improvement Program; and
WHEREAS, the General Assembly enacted the Public-Private Education Facilities and
Infrastructure Act of 2002 (the "PPEA"), which provides an alternative to traditional methods for
procurement of certain public facilities and infrastructure; and
WHEREAS, the County adopted its implementation procedures for the PPEA in July 2003;
and
WHEREAS, the County subsequently received an unsolicited conceptual proposal pursuant
to the PPEA for the design, construction and furnishing of a new Public Safety Building (the
"Project"); and
WHEREAS, the County accepted the unsolicited proposal and offered notice that it would
accept for simultaneous consideration any competing proposals; and
WHEREAS, the County received additional conceptual-phase proposals from two other
offerors for the Project;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED AS FOLLOWS:
1. The County Board of Supervisors (the "Board") hereby determines that proceeding
with procurement of the Project under the PPEA is likely to be advantageous to the
public and that use of "competitive negotiation" procedures under the PPEA for the
Project is likely to be more advantageous to the County and the public based upon
(i) the probable scope, complexity or urgency of the project, or (ii) risk sharing,
added value, an increase in funding or economic benefit from the Project that would
not otherwise be available; and
2. The Board hereby determines that the offeror team led by Howard Shockey & Sons,
Inc. is clearly more highly qualified than the others under consideration; and
3. The Board hereby directs the County Administrator to (i) request that the Howard
Shockey & Sons, Inc. team submit to the County a detailed stage proposal not later
than August 31, 2004, to include information requested by the County Administrator
as he shall deem appropriate, and (ii) coordinate the process for review of such
detailed proposal.
Adopted this nth day August, 2004.
