Agenda Item Summary:
The proposed Crisis Stabilization Unit at Pennington County’s Care Campus would house the existing Crisis Care (maximum 24 hour stay) and a new 16 bed Stabilization (up to 5 days) Unit to serve the acute behavioral health needs in Western South Dakota. The projected cost in October 2020 was $4.6 million, with a one-time request from the State of South Dakota to fund the full projected design and construction cost of the Crisis Stabilization Unit. Construction costs saw a significant increase in 2021 and the increased costs of construction are now estimated at $5.6 million with a construction contingency included in the bid estimate. Funding is being requested from the City of Rapid City in the amount of $500,000 to supplement funds from the State of SD and Pennington County for the building of this facility.
