The Martin County Sheriff's Office Firearms Training Facility was approved by the Board of County Commissioners as an amendment to the Capital Improvement Plan in Fiscal Year 2020. The new training facility will provide a permanent training/classroom facility, pole barn, shooting range and driver training skid pad for adequate training. The approved Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) sheet for the project is attached.
The multi-phased construction project adjacent to, in and around an occupied building is perfectly suited for the CMAR process. The construction manager will provide plan and phasing review comments during the design phase of the project instead of providing change orders that typically develop during multi-phased projects using the Design-Bid-Build process. The construction manager will also provide a project schedule and detailed cost estimates earlier in the process, during the design versus waiting until the project is bid as with the Design-Bid-Build process. The project schedule and cost estimates will help with the design and phasing of the project and allow us to procure long lead items in advance to reduce construction delays.
