This item concerns the potential use of excess local government funds in Escambia County. These funds, which cannot be carried forward, may be used for specific purposes including the construction of a building or structure to house a local government's building code enforcement agency. This is currently under review by the Inspection Fund Advisory Board. If approved, this could lead to a project involving site preparation, construction of a new building, and potentially interior finishing. The scope would likely include foundation work, framing, roofing, electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems, followed by interior finishes and final site work. Local contractors, trades, suppliers, and service providers are encouraged to monitor this review process. Early engagement before final plans and permits are set could offer a competitive advantage for securing work related to this potential construction project.
