included in the County Facilities Life-Cycle Investment Program ("FLIP") report and has FLIP funds available to
move forward. The project is in the beginning phase. Amendment No. 1 will provide for the additional costs

increased by $250,000 to cover the additional services related to the Upgrades to Fire Protection Systems projects.
Any remaining funds after completion of the Upgrades to the Fire Protection Systems projects may be made available
for the design of other projects under consideration now or in the future.

If Amendment No. 1 is not approved, the fire protection systems will continue to deteriorate resulting in more costly
repairs in the future.
