LINKING EXISTING BUILDINGS
CREATING A FACILITY CAMPUS
Co-location refers to more than a single building with multiple services. It can also be a campus containing multiple buildings that WORK TOGETHER, or separate buildings that share FUNCTIONS, such as a conference room or lunch room. As separate buildings share space and functions, efficiency and sustainability increase.
WHAT IS CO-LOCATION?

- CEDAR RAPIDS BUILDINGS & FACILITIES MASTER PLAN
The COMMUNITY CENTER CONCEPT evolved into three main facilities which have been validated through the stakeholder involvement meetings conducted during the development of the Buildings & Facilities Master Plan. These stakeholders strongly supported the ‘ONE-STOP-SHOP’ service model that was established for flood recovery assistance immediately after the flood.

Details about the envisioned Community Services Center are shown:
The Community Services Center was envisioned as a single campus that could support administrative and customer service functions for the City, County, Cedar Rapids School District, and other similar users. It would have enclosed connections between the structures and the potential for shared parking and conference facilities to maximize utilization and building efficiency.
