b. Navy and Marine Corps. Authorities are contained in OPNAVINST
11010.20 and NAVFACINST 11010.45. Prior to planning alterations to an
existing facility to convert it to a Youth Center, the activity should consult
the following: Navy: NPC (Pers 656D/659) and Marine Corps: MCCS HQ
(MRY/MRD).
c. Air Force. HQ AFCEE for architectural and publication coordination; HQ
Air Force Civil Engineering Support Agency (AFCESA) for technical issues
relating to fire, life safety, and certification; HQ AFSVA for functional
requirements; and HQ USAF/ILV for functional policies.
2-5.2
Other Considerations.
Consider the site of the existing facility and its limitations with regard to the Youth
Center's needs. Only consider permanent facilities for conversion to a Youth Center.
Exceptions may be made for other buildings that are in excellent condition, subject to
the location determinants in paragraph 2-3.
Consider adaptability to the intent of the building program. For instance, can the
building accommodate a multipurpose room? Does it have site space for the outdoor
activity area and the teen patio? Whether planning a conversion, alteration, addition, or
new construction, antiterrorism requirements must be taken into account (see
paragraph 3.8). Also consider barrier-free design requirements as noted in paragraph
3-7.
