Need for the Facility  The Princeton Community Building is a vital part of everyday life in the Town of Princeton with the potential to be an even greater asset. The existing structure is over 40 years old, does not meet current accessibility codes, and is not energy efficient. While the structure is sound, the appearance and current configuration leave much to desire. A1 transformation of the Princeton Community Building is essential fort the continued growth and development of Princeton. The Town of Princeton in eastern North Carolina is currently enjoying a renaissance in its downtown business area. Several new businesses have opened in thel last three years, and long-vacant buildings are being purchased and renovated for even more new businesses. The Princeton Town Board has identified North Center Street, where the Princeton Community Building is located, as the gateway to downtown. This area is also a central pedestrian corridor. Princeton received a Golden Leaf grant to rehabilitate stormwater drainage in this area. An EPA! Brownfields grant paid for Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments for the Princeton Community Building. The same grant provided the proposed new floor plan and exterior improvement renderings featured in this grant application, ar new parking and landscaping plan for the property, a sidewalk inventory, as well as a new streetscape design for North Center Street. The Town of Princeton has also contracted with Duke Energy for an estimate to convert the downtown from above ground to underground power. All of this information, along with comments and input from various public meetings, will be compiled into ac comprehensive downtown improvement plan to be completed in 2019. Updating the building exterior will make the Princeton Community Building more attractive visually and more desirable as an event location. Interior renovations will also make the building more attractive visually as well as reconfigure the space to be more marketable and useful to the community. The current meeting rooms provide 1,135 square feet and 1,059 square feet of meeting space separately, with no way to combine the two spaces. After renovation, there willl be one large space of1,875 square feet that can be divided into two Envisioned is an attractive small community and event center to continue with current uses that isc capable of handling larger group community and private gatherings. The two larger meeting rooms are currently set up for occupancy of approximately 60 people. Increasing the main meeting space size and configuration will increase the current occupancy by more than 100% Envisioned is an ADA compliant facility that is more economical to operate. The increased occupancy limit will make the Princeton Community Building more marketable for larger events such as weddings, wedding receptions, corporate meetings, and other large events. Larger community based events will also be possible including fundraisers, community celebrations, Renovations to the Princeton Community Building will also provide al larger home for the Princeton Public Library.

In February 1980, the library moved to a room in the Princeton Community Building. After being closed for several years, it opened as part of the Princeton High School library in February 2001 and is presently sharing space with the school. One of the biggest problems with the status quo of the current library is its location inside the high school. It can only be open when the school is closed, meaning limited access for patrons. In addition, there is no room fore expansion within the school, which means the size of the Envisioned is a library with al larger, more complete collection that includes a gallery section where local and regional artists can share their work.

Existing Facilities  The Princeton Community Building is a 50' by 75', one story metal framed building on a concrete slab, built in the 1970s. Organized groups, Boy and Girl Scout meetings, civic organizations such as the Princeton Lions Club, and community events utilize the space. The building is also rentable to the public. For a period in the 1980s, the Princeton Community Building also housed the Princeton Public Library. The proposed project is to update the building for its current uses and to, once again, house the Princeton Public Library. The existing Princeton Community Building has two larger and two smaller meeting spaces, storage facilities, a kitchen, and restrooms. (see attached existing building photos).

The current utilization is 48 hours per month. After construction, the estimated hours of utilization are expected to average 185 hours per month, mainly due toi the library relocating tot thel building and being open 24 hours per week or 104 hours per month. The projected operations cost has been increased 385% because expected hours of operations are 3.85 times that of current usage.  G.

Construction Problems  Unsuitable soils may be encountered during construction of parking, however, the proposed asphalt parking loti is currently the location of an existing gravel parking lot that has been in place for the past 15+ years. No soft areas have been observed during this time period. Recent exploratory soil borings taken from the site did noti indicate wet/organic: soils present in the upper stratum. Therefore, unsuitable soils are not anticipated to be an issue during  construction.  - Conclusions and Recommendations  Based on the above report, the most cost-effective solution to provide an updated community center is to renovate the current community building into a new multi-use facility, capable of serving a larger portion of the local population. The site is centrally located, and the property is Ar new building could be built on a new site, but likely would not have as central al location within the town. The current building could be demolished and ar new building built in its place, but a new building would likely cost approximately $175-$200 per SF (just for the building construction portion), which is significantly more than the estimated building renovation cost.  large enough to provide substantial parking for the intended uses.

SYNOPSIS  Johnston County  Three Oaks Engineering was tasked with assisting the Town of Princeton in evaluating the intersection recommendations developed as part oft the Town's Land Use Plan. Two Build scenarios were evaluated for the design year of 2050.  Build Scenario 1  Road diet on Dr. Donnie H. Jones. Jr Boulevard  Proposed mini roundabout att thei intersection of Dr. Donnie H. Jones. Jr Boulevard. and NF Pine Street Proposed mini roundabout at thei intersection of Dr. Donnie HJ Jones. Jr Boulevard and NF Pearlsree/Parnolomew  Avenue  Proposed mini roundabout at the intersection of Center Street and Edwards Street All modifications evaluatedi in Build Scenario 1 with thei following exception;  Build Scenario2  The proposed conversion of Center Street to one-way operations from Dr. Donnie HJ Jones Jr Boulevard and  Edwards Street  Based on the analysis provided in this memorandum, Build Scenario 1 is anticipated to operate at acceptable levels of service and delay in the 2050 design year. Build Scenario 2, the conversion of Center Street to one-way operation, is also anticipated to operate at acceptable levels of service and delayi in the design year with one exception. The northbound and westbound lane groups at the Dr. Donnie H. Jones Jr Boulevard and N Pearl Street/Bartholomew: Avenue mini roundabout are expected to operate at LOSEi in the AM peak period. Its should be noted that the proposed roundabout is anticipated to adequately service 97 percent of the 2050 AM peak traffic. The roundabout analysis has an environmental factor that accounts for unfamiliar drivers. Ifdrivers become moret familiar with roundabout operations between the opening year and 2050, andi the environmental factori is removed, the mini roundabout is expected to operate well in 2050. This is discussed in detail ini the body oft the memorandum. Based on the analyses performed, both Build Scenariola and 2 appear to be viable This memorandum also provides additional information on the analysis process, suggestions for pedestrian and bicycle enhancements beyond those provided int the land use plan, additional planning efforts, and potential avenues fori funding. To assist the Town in determining costs, units cost for project elements are provided ini the memorandum as well. Its should be notedi that the results and recommendations of this study are conceptual in nature and no detailed design was included. As elements oft the plan are implemented, detailed analysis, design, and appropriate coordination: are  options for the Town to pursue.  recommended.  January 2024  1  5
