SOUTH MANDARIN BRANCH LIBRARY
Assessments of the facility
The South Mandarin Branch Library of the Jacksonville Public
Library is located in south Jacksonville. The building occupies a
prime location just south of I-295, on San Jose Boulevard at
Orange Picker Road, 14.7 miles from the Main Library.
Official Name: South Mandarin Branch Library
Building Address: 12125 San Jose Boulevard, Jacksonville,
32223
Library Facility Code: SOM
Site Description
The building is situated on a landscaped lot of 6.51 acres
(283,510 square feet), facing Orange Picker Road. The
topography of the site is flat. The primary maintenance
responsibility for the site falls under the supervision of the City of
Jacksonville Public Works Department, Public Buildings Division,
but is privately contracted. Routine maintenance includes cutting
of the grass and landscaping around the building and parking lot.
Drawing SOM-1 illustrates the site of the South Mandarin Branch
Library (11” x 17” overleaf).
Architectural Description
Construction of the original building was completed in 2005.
The facility appears to be well built and in good condition for its
age. Construction drawings of the original facility were available
for review. Drawing SOM-2 depicts the Ground Floor of the
South Mandarin Library (11” x 17” overleaf), as well as the
square footage of each room, as tabulated in Table A. SOM.1.
Square Footage: There are currently 25,132 building gross
square feet (bgsf). There are 21,665 net assignable square feet
(nasf) within the facility. The library currently occupies the entire
building.

Site & Building Capacity
The South Mandarin Branch Library currently provides 100
parking spaces on site. At 25,132 gross square feet, 126
parking spaces would be needed at the South Mandarin Library,
in order to meet the minimum standard of one space per 200
bgsf of building, as currently sized.
Staff workspace, at 3,530 nasf, is 16.3% of total net assignable
square feet (nasf) of the building – more than adequate when
compared to the minimum standard of 10% for buildings
between 15,000 and 30,000 gross square feet. In terms of
square footage, the surplus equates to 1,364 nasf more than the
minimum need of 2,166 nasf.

Growth Potential
Adaptability: The building is composed of open spaces, with
structural spans ranging from 32 feet north-to-south and 32 feet
east-to-west. Changes to the configuration of the spaces
appear to be feasible.

Expandability: A horizontal addition to the north appears most
feasible, indeed the design planned for such future expansion.
It is not conceivable that vertical expansion could be achieved,
given a preliminary analysis of the roof structure.

Jacksonville Public Library facilities, in addition to the study
solicited by JPL and performed by Hayes e-Government
Resources, Inc.
Management of IT: The number of IT service tickets has
fluctuated from year to year, but the library has generally ranked
among branches with fewer tickets. The number of hours of IT
support has been significantly higher in the last two years. Data
for FY2010 represent only the first ten months of the year.
Based on ITD assessments, two switches and two wireless
access points need to be upgraded or replaced.

South Mandarin Library falls in the middle of the branches based
on hours of use of the public Internet computers but falls in the
lower half based on percentage of use of total available hours.
The library’s percentage of utilization is below the system-wide
average of 39.3%. Staff reported that generally customers only
had to wait for a public computer on Sundays, with the typical
wait being 15 to 20 minutes. Hayes e-Government, Inc.
recommended that bandwidth should be at least 16 Mbps.

G2010 Roadways: One asphalt-paved curb cut provides
access to the public parking lot, one-way materials drop-off
drive, and a brick-paved circular drop-off drive. composite
rating: 5.0.
G2020 Parking Lots: A striped asphalt parking lot for 100 cars,
including four spaces reserved for the handicapped, is situated
to the east of the building. The entire lot needs to be re-striped.
The lot has concrete curbs but no gutters or valley pans. Storm
water drainage from paved areas appears to be effective during
moderate rains. composite rating: 3.9.
Appendix SOM: Current Facilities/Future Needs South Mandarin Branch Library page A.SOM.4 G2040 Site Development: Building- and pole-mounted lighting
on the site uses metal halide lamps and appears adequate. One

Appendix SOM: Current Facilities/Future Needs South Mandarin Branch Library page A.SOM.8 Additional Systems
The following are systems that are either good practice in library
facility design or would be required by current building codes if a
renovation or expansion were to be undertaken. They do not
presently exist in the building, so it is suggested they be added.
Handicapped Accessibility: Provisions are adequate to
access the building, and essential facilities within, but some
additional requirements are applicable. Toilet room
configuration and egress are accessibility issues.
Exiting: Provisions are adequate, so no additional
requirements are applicable to this facility.
Install Fire Protection: A limited fire protection system is
provided, but should be installed throughout the building.
Install Emergency Power: No emergency generator or other
operational back-up power supply is provided, but should be
installed throughout the building.
Construction Cost Impacts
The building-wide survey includes the identification of issues
that may impact the cost of expansion. Examples of these
issues include the degree of difficulty of construction on the site,
the current state of the local economy, how renovation will
impact the operations of a facility, etcetera.
Library Capacity Plan Jacksonville Public Library Godfrey’s Associates, Inc. SOUTH MANDARIN BRANCH LIBRARY
Existing Facility Assessment
Location: The site is on a main thoroughfare, and is in a good
location for the delivery of construction materials and labor.
Hazardous Materials: No asbestos or led paint is believed to
exist in the building or on the site.
Site Limitations: Land is available for future horizontal
expansion, but not for staging of construction, so such
expansion would result in temporary loss of parking spaces.
Costs to Retrofit Existing Building Systems
Construction Difficulty: No apparent limitations exist to
additional construction at the site. Given no evidence of
settlement, sub-surface conditions may be stable. However, a
geotechnical analysis of the soil should be conducted prior to
any expansion of the facility.
Phasing: Future horizontal additions could be constructed, but
not without impact to the existing operations and/or parking. It is
conceivable that an on-site addition could be completed without
requiring the Library to relocate to another building, but such a
phasing plan would not be advisable.
Table A.SOM.4 provides the unit costs of the various retrofit
projects. The unit prices apply to either the overall gross area of
the building (bgsf), or net assignable square footage (nasf), as
appropriate, to develop the cost for system retrofits.
Analysis. The total cost to retrofit the building systems is
$150,598, or $5.99 per square foot. When excluding the cost for
new furniture and equipment of $22,480, the total cost to retrofit
the building systems is reduced to $128,118. Most of the
systems affected would be made more energy efficient, and/or
fully code compliant – improving the life safety of the facility –
and limiting operational costs to the City of Jacksonville.
Historic Issues: The building is not located within a historic
district.
