Whereas the Committee has reviewed the Shared Facility Analysis report prepared by Colbourne & Kembel Architects (CKA); and, Whereas, the CKA analysis confirms that the savings for the County of Frontenac, the Township of South Frontenac and the Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority are of sufficient magnitude to merit continued investigation of a joint facility; Be It Resolved That Council authorize the Administrative Building Design Task Force to participate in a joint meeting (or series of meetings) with the potential partners intended to address questions of ownership model, site selection and servicing, And Further That, the Committee Chair and Chief Administrative Officer report back to County Council on a regular basis prior to making a final recommendation to County Council. Carried Mr. Pender provided an overview of the process to date and next steps moving forward, should the Task Force support the recommendation. The following comments/questions were raised:  Is there sufficient land in Sydenham that can accommodate 5.9 acres?  Will the building be multi-level or one level, noting that there are advantages and disadvantages of each. If the building is constructed on a sloping site, access can be on either level. A vertical building provides greater efficiencies in terms of its HVAC system; however comes with additional costs such as the requirement of an elevator.  How will the Old House be re-purposed? 8.
