The total estimated construction cost will be funded by a California Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) grant.
Contra Costa County Sheriff's Department Custody Services Bureau has been selected to receive grant funding from the Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) related to coronavirus education, mitigation and prevention. With this funding, there is $450,000.00 allocated to purchase replacement Deputy Stations at the Martinez Detention Facility (WH371C/D) in modules A, B, C, E, Q and T and replacement of all Deputy Stations at the West County Detention Facility (WH371C/D) in Buildings 4, 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B, 7A, 7B, 8A and 8B. Currently, the Martinez Detention Facility and the West County Detention Facility are equipped with original Deputy Stations. The new upgraded Deputy Stations are to include materials designed to protect staff from transmission of Covid-19 virus and enhance inmate and staff safety by creating a physical barrier.
On November 24, 2021, the Office of the Sheriff and Public Works Department solicited the project via BidSync #2111-517.
The construction cost estimate was for $450,000 and the general prevailing wage rates will be the minimum rates paid on this project. Bids were received and opened by the Public Works Department on December 17, 2021, and the bid results were as follows:

The BSCC grant is expected to fund all the construction costs associated with this work.
The Public Works Director recommends that the Board award the construction contract for this project to Drake Construction, LLC the lowest responsible and responsive bidder, in the amount of $425,000.
If the project is not approved, the County will not be able to replace the Deputy Stations at Martinez and West County Detention Facilities.
