The majority of government services in the Nelson region will be delivered in two mainbuildings:
310 Ward Street (Government Place) the central hub for residents of our region to access local government related services (City, RDCK and Provincial Government Services including Service BC,MoTI,CourtServices). 333 Victoria Street (Kutenai Place) focused on social, health & educa onal services (Interior Health,Children&Families,MinistryofEnvironment,etc.).

Working/OceSpace
The RDCK is being oered ownership of their own space in 310 Ward St. at the Citys original purchase price. Ownership structure is exible and can range from a longterm lease with op ons to renew at a nominal amount, eec vely crea ng ownership to a formal tled ownershipsuchasastrata. All space requirements of the RDCK have been met or exceeded, and the majority of sta will be located on a refurbished third oor. The Development Services sta of the City and RDCK will be colocated on the 2nd Floor and the IT sta on the Lower Level. The preliminary design iden es approximately 13,200 2 of dedicated space plus approximately 3,200 2 of shared space; the total usable space is 16,400 2 which is over 4,000 2 more than at 202 Lakeside Drive. The space includes a exible combined boardroom/council chambers; lobby and washroom;avarietyoflargeandsmallermee ngrooms;andseveralclientrooms. This is a longterm solu on for the RDCK. The dedicated oce space provides 2,400 2 of addi onal space as compared to 202 Lakeside Dr., including 1200 2 of addi onal open space and 800 2 of addi onal mee ng space. It is es mated that construc ng this addi onal dedicated space alone at 202 Lakeside would cost more than $600,000. In addi on, more spacemaybecomeavailableinthefutureasprovincialleasesexpire.

TheNewBuilding
310 Ward Street is one of the most energy ecient and technologically advanced buildings in the Interior. The building has been well maintained and recent improvements have increased the comfort and quality of the work environment, including fresh air and zoned temperaturecontrols.

Loca onandAmeni es
The central loca on of the building facilitates doing business in the downtown, whether private or RDCK business. It is easily accessed by transit, car, bike or on foot, and is near to major facili es like the Nelson District Community Complex.Anewshowerfacilitywillbecreatedinthelowerleveltosupporttheac velifestyles ofsta.ApleasantlandscapedgreenspaceisalsoavaluablefeatureofGovernmentPlace.

The presence and visibility of the District will be enhanced by moving out of an industrially zoned area into a prominent, hightrac downtown loca on that already receives more than 75,000 inperson visits a year. These visits include regional residents and the development community,whonditaconvenientmul servicebuilding. Both public parking and sta parking op ons are available on site.

The City and the Province have also been recognized provincially for the 310 Ward St. co loca onin2004.Allthreepar esarecommi edtondingecienciesthroughsharedservices and shared exper se, and this will be greatly enhanced by being in the same building. Proximity to other sta will encourage interac on, which will lead to increased exper se and depth of knowledge, and be er decisionmaking. This is par cularly true for IT and Development Services sta, who will be colocated with their colleagues. As well, savings from simple economies of scale (e.g., through joint sta training sessions or equipment sharing) will beachieved,againbecausetheproximityofstamakesthiseasytodo.

PurchaseCostandImprovements
The RDCK will be able to buy into 310 Ward St. at a cost based on the Citys original purchase price. The RDCKs cost will be $1,232,000; the current assessed value is $1,806,000 (this includesspacefordedicatedRDCKuseaswellasa50/50splitonthesharedspaces). To accommodate the reloca on of the RDCK, the City of Nelson will purchase 202 Lakeside Driveforitsassessedvalueof$1,728,000subjecttoaninspec on. The dierence between the Citys purchase price for 202 Lakeside and the RDCKs purchase of spaceat310WardSt.createsatenantimprovementreserveof$496,000.

Tenant improvement costs are es mated at approximately $800,000, if exis ng oces are reused where possible; reuse is a principle adopted by both organiza ons and is consistent with the plan for 202 Lakeside Drive. With the addi onal open space being provided and more storage op ons, the City believes the Districts exis ng furniture could be used, resul ng in a savings of up to $200,000. The City is willing to take on the nancial risk of the tenant improvements and provide a turnkey solu onsothattheRDCKreloca onprocessisverystreamlined.PriortotheCityassumingthisrisk, however, the design will be completed and the City will have the right to do a nal cos ng for the tenantimprovements. The City will make improvements to the lobby areas, add a shower facility and costshare in a new boardroom/council chambers. The Citys es mated contribu on for this work is $200,000.

OtherCityContribu ons
The City will retain full responsibility for the building shell as iden ed in the current lease agreement with the Province. The City will provide the RDCK with rack space in the Citys COLO facility at no cost. The RDCK will cost share in any future upgrades, based on their usage of rack space. The constructed value of this facility is $100,000. RDCK will be able to u lize the facility generatorforbackuppowertotheEOCandcri calequipment(avalueof$75,000). The City is not requiring the RDCK to purchase their 50% of the common lobby and washrooms on thelowerleveland2ndoors(value$113,000).

The public will experience a more streamlined and ecient provision of government services throughatrigovernmentcoloca onat310WardStreet.

Second, the cost of government will be reduced through co loca on. For example, IT savings alone have been es mated at more than $50,000 per year. Other eciencies and cost savingsarean cipated.

SharedServiceandSpaceOpportuni es
Many opportuni es exist for collabora on and sharing of spaceandservices.AnimmediateopportunityisInforma on Technology; coloca ng the City and RDCK departments and sharingofspace,suchastheITcoloca on(COLO)room,will bring greater eciencies and coopera on.

The workspaces will be completely renovatedpriortothestamovingover,whichwillgreatlyreducedisrup ontothem. Signicantly more mee ng room space (800 Programoceisonlystepsaway). From a management perspec ve, there will be a reduced level of administra on required for buildingmanagement,ITinfrastructure,etc. Importantly, because both the City and RDCK employ sta with the same responsibili es, there will be opportuni es to share exper se or to provide backup in case of sta leaves (e.g., network specialists, HR professionals, planners, building inspectors). Simply having a colleague across the hall to discuss a problem with can produce signicant benets,and build trust and coopera on among sta in all departments of the City and Regional District. These opportuni es will benet municipali es and electoral areas across the RDCK and create addi onal depth in both organiza ons and the region. It will also provide sta with added learningandworkexperiences. There is a mix of unionized and nonunionized employees that work in the building for both the City and the Provincial Government. These employees work side by side with their exempt colleagues and the City enjoys posi ve rela onships with its Unions.

FACILITYOVERVIEW

The facility located at 310 Ward Street is a atroofed six storey concrete frame building with a builtup roof system. The building was originally constructed in 1974 for the Provincial Government and was renovated in 2004 to accommodate the reloca on of City Hall for the CityofNelson.Twoelevatorsservicealllevelsofthebuilding. The building provides approximately 5,481m2 (59,000 2) of condi oned space, consis ng of 45,109m2 (55,000 2) of Class A oce space and 278m2 (3,000 2) of storage. The building sits on a 10,000m2 (108,000 2) site which includes an 1,672m2 (18,000 2) courtyard and is serviced by 5,760m2(62,000 2)ofparkingspace. The building has always been professionally managed. Property management is currently provided by BLJCWSI which provides access to provincialwide contracts at a reduced rate, such as snow clearing, custodiansandbuildingmanagement.

LOCATION
The building is located in the downtown core of Nelson, BC on Ward Street, just y meters from Vernon Street. Baker Street, Nelsons main downtown street, is approximately two blocks away. Most of the retail, nance and restaurants services in Nelson are located either on Vernon Street or Baker Street. The main public transit sta on is located on Baker and Ward which is two blocks from thebuilding.

The building is currently a one stop service centre for the region with many of the key provincial government and City of Nelson services housed in the building. Many rural residents are familiar with the building as this is where they pay their property taxes, hydro bills, renew their drivers license or pick up their hun ng license, amongst many other services available at 310 Ward Street. The building has high public trac ow throughout the year; in fact, it is es mated that the City has 45,000inpersonvisitsannuallyandServiceBCapproximately30,000.

The energy reduc on ini a ves recently completed have realized a reduc on of $22,000 in annual u lity costs when compared toa2007baselineyear.Projectsrecentlycompletedwillgeneratesimilarsavings. Sustainability has been a major driver for the City of Nelson for the past 5 years, triggering the Corporate Climate GHG Reduc on Program in 2009. The program has provided signicant success to date, reducing GHG emissions related to 310 Ward Street by 88.4 tCO2e/yr. This is equivalent to taking over 18 passenger vehicles o the roadeveryyear. The City has reached Level 5 in the FCMs Partners for Climate Protec on Program. Energyecienciesat310WardStreetplayedakeyroleinreachingthislevel. Car Share Opportunity Kootenay Car Share has proposed partnering with City of Nelson to establish a car share program on site.

RecentMajorCapitalImprovements

As one of the Citys largest buildings, 310 Ward Street has been a focal point for the City of Nelsons Corporate Climate GHG reduc on program, resul ng in a signicant reduc on in energy use and GHGs documented below. These projects not only aid EnergyIntensity [ekWh/m2/yr] in achieving climate ac on goals, but provide a more sustainable opera on with improved air quality and building comfort. Since 2010, the City has conducted three major Energy Conserva on Measures(ECMs).
