Miami's advice to Orlando arts center: Do the math right - Orlando Sentinel : State News Miami's advice to Orlando arts center: Do the math right - Orlando Sentinel : State News: "Here's some advice for the folks planning Orlando's performing-arts center: When estimating utilities, maintenance and security costs for your new buildings, don't use inaccurate assumptions or stale data.
And, for heaven's sake, don't figure the cost of air conditioning by the square foot. Use cubic feet, if you aim to cool the air above the floor, too.
Since opening Miami's new Carnival Center for the Performing Arts seven months ago, facility managers have learned those and other lessons the hard way. With occupancy costs for the $473 million complex soaring to an average of $647,844 a month -- more than double what was budgeted -- they are asking the Miami-Dade County Commission for an additional $4.1 million to stay open."
