The purpose of this project is to demolish buildings F & G at the Marsh Creek Detention Facility, 12000 Marsh Creek Road, Clayton. Due to the presence of hazardous materials, the air quality within the buildings has become a safety concern. Maintenance requires the use of approved air respirators and air quality management. These buildings are unoccupied and have been rendered unusable by the Sheriff's Department due to the existence of black mold and hazardous materials, which may include asbestos-containing materials (ACMs) and lead-based paints (LBPs). The Sheriff's Department is in agreement that the buildings should be removed. If ACMs and LBPs are detected during pre-demolition analysis, then special handling prior to and during planned demolition activities will be implemented in accordance with applicable laws. Demolition of these buildings would also reduce the amount of deferred maintenance needs at this location.
On November 10, 2015, the Board of Supervisors awarded a job order contract (JOC) for repair, remodeling, and other repetitive work to be performed pursuant to the Construction Task Catalog to each of Sea Pac Engineering, Inc., John F. Otto, Inc., and Mark Scott Construction, each in the amount of $2,000,000. On September 20, 2016, the Board approved a change order to increase the contract amount to $4,500,000, as allowed by Public Contract Code, for both John F. Otto, Inc., and Mark Scott Construction. This project is expected to be performed by one of the three JOC contractors. A task order catalogue has been prepared for the JOC Contractor to perform the Project. In the event that it is not performed by a JOC contractor, the Public Works Department will go to the Board for approval of plans and specifications and authorization to advertise and solicit bids.
If the project is not approved, these buildings will remain unusable and unoccupied while still incurring deferred maintenance.
