Comparable Public Construction Approach: <br />As an alternate to the Construction Cast Index approach to estimating normal construction costs in the applicants area, the applicant may employ a local public <br />construction cost comparison approach to calculate the Eligible Projected Construction Cost figure. iSee section 20436 (c)(3)j List a minimum of three comparable public <br />construction projects that have been bid within the applicant's County within three years of the Board's deadline for application. <br />Comparable public construction projects are public libraries, community colleges, post offices, museums, courthouses, city halls, auditoriums, convention centers, civic <br />centers, senior citizen centers, public schools, and recreation centers. <br />The costs listed shall be for construction of the building only and exclusive of any site acquisition, demolition, development, utilities, or landscaping; surface <br />and under building parking; works of art; shelving; furniture; built-in service desks, counters, workstations, or other casework; movable equipment; or <br />architectural and engineering fees. <br />Construction <br />Protect Date Bid CostISF ~,:. <br />A. > n/a $ ISF „'~ s <br />B. > $ ISF ~., , <br />C. > $ ISF ~'' ~= <br />l~. > $ ISF <br />E.
