RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE the Building Improvements for 4191 Appian Way, El Sobrante Project (Project), El Sobrante area. [County Project No. 115-1901/WH234B, DCD-CP# 18-35] (District I).


DETERMINE the Project is a California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), Class 1(d) Categorical Exemption, pursuant to Article 19, Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines, and

RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D)

DIRECT the Director of Department of Conservation and Development to file a Notice of Exemption with the County Clerk, and

AUTHORIZE, the Public Works Director, or designee, to arrange for payment of a $25 fee to the Department of Conservation and Development for processing, and a $50 fee to the County Clerk for filing the Notice of Exemption.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Estimated Project cost: $500,000; 71% Park Dedication Funds, 29% Transportation for Livable Communities Funds.

BACKGROUND:

The purpose of this Project is to construct improvements to the Friends of the Library building (APN#425-150-048) and parking area at the El Sobrante Library site.

The Project consists of parking area repairs, repairing the existing foundation of the Friends of the Library Building, and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) improvements in both the parking area and the building. Parking area repairs include restriping to create ADA parking and an ADA appropriate path of travel. Other ADA modifications, such as a ramp leading into the Friends of the Library Building, may be installed as needed.

District I Supervisor’s Office has requested renovation of the Friends of the Library Building to meet current safety standards so that the building can be used by community groups to host events.

On November 13, 2018, 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 Staples Construction, Aztec Consultants, Mark Scott Construction Inc., each in the amount of $2,500,000. 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 complete this Project. In the event that the Project is not performed by the JOC contractor, the Public Works Department will return to the Board for approval of plans and specifications and authorization to advertise and solicit bids.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Delay in approving the project may result in a delay of design, construction, and may jeopardize funding.
