HomeMy WebLinkAboutC.054.93010_1106ADW Architectural Presentation: Representing this firm were: Jimmy Powell
(Partner), John Kappers (Construction Administrator), Richard Atkinson (Partner), and
Tom Carlson-Reddig (Design Director).
Powell said ADW was established in 1977, and it currently had 40 employees.
He said the firm's team always made goals at the beginning of each project, and they
continually monitored them. He said the project's cost and the time schedule were the
two most important items when constructing a new building.
Carlson-Reddig shared three proposed building sketches for the Eastside Drive
site. He said the company would maximize the usage of the land to allow for another
building in the future along with parking. He said the structure would need many
windows, and there would be a need for private offices due to confidentiality concerns.
The following ADW projects were mentioned by the representatives.
Health Department, Justice Center, and Rowan Behavioral Healthcare, in
Salisbury, N.C.
Crossroads Behavioral Healthcare, Elkin, N.C.
Mount Airy Police Department, Mount Airy, N.C.
Mooresville Fire Department, Mooresville, N.C.
Martin Boal Anthony & Johnson (MBAJ) Architectural Presentation: Rob
Johnson (Principal), Larry Schaeffer (Principal) and Grace Wallace (Project Captain)
presented information about MBAJ. They described the different phases that would be
involved in the construction of a new social services facility, and they said a study
would be done on the re -usage of the current building.
The representatives shared a site analysis of the proposed location (Eastside
Drive) for the new building. They said MBAJ could provide computer modeling and
virtual tours of the new facility.
The MBAJ representatives then discussed the following projects.
Surry County DSS Facility, Dobson, N.C.
Iredell County Government Center -South, Mooresville, N.C.
State DSS Facility, Ft. Pierce, Florida (Schaeffer/Project Architect)
Schaeffer, a resident of Iredell County, said his close proximity to the Eastside
Drive site would enable him to closely monitor the new building's construction.
Chairman Johnson asked Social Services Director Wall to advise of any
"Pitfalls" that might occur in the design of the new building.
The group chose Thursday, May 22, 2003, as a date to tour some of structures
described by the firms.
(The members of the Social Services Board were thanked for the attending the
meeting, and they departed at 5:20 p.m.)
