Background:
The project (design and construction) is funded by The Ohio State University Athletic Department and will be owned and operated by Columbus Recreation and Parks Department. Matrix Systems will install four card readers, 12 motion detectors, four high resolution cameras, and associated equipment for the facility. Matrix is the security system used citywide.
Project Contingency included in this legislation is $3,921.00.
The 22,000 s.f. facility is currently under construction and will have six boat bays on the lower level, lockers, showers, a meeting room, training/event space, offices, mechanical, training, and laundry rooms on the upper level. It will be used for youth, student and adult rowing. The Columbus Recreation and Parks Department will house outdoor education boats in the boathouse and lease space to The Greater Columbus Rowing Association and The Ohio State University Athletic Department.
This facility relocates The Ohio State University Women's Varsity Rowing Program and The Greater Columbus Rowing Association, a not-for-profit rowing club from Indian Village Camp (adjacent to Duranceau Park) to the new building. Indian Village Camp boats will also be relocated and stored indoors with improved rowing access to the water including ADA access for the public to the water. Boats and equipment will be stored in the facility from tenants and the City. Since the building is not staffed, security is imperative. The card reader entry will also track any user entering the facility.
The facility will be wire and cable ready in June 2010 with completion of entire project in November 2010.
