Information

Referral History:

The Contra Costa County Public Works Airports Division is in process of improving F Row of the East Ramp hangars at Buchanan Field. The hangar row reverted to the County around 2007, after a long-term lease had expired. The hangar siding is in poor condition and the cost to repaint is comparable to the cost of fully replacing the material. In addition, the doors have become difficult for many of our tenants to operate and it is more cost effective to replace them when the siding has been removed.

Referral Update:

Plans and specifications have been prepared for the Airports Division by an experienced airport engineering firm. The project consists of replacing the existing hangar siding and doors with new materials. There are seven rows of hangars and the intent is to improve all of them over time. The East Ramp F Row hangars will be the first as it is the most visible from the surrounding community.

The Department of Conservation and Development has determined that this project is a Categorical Exemption under Section 15302(c) (Class 2) of the California Environmental Quality Act. The Notice of Exemption (County file CP #18- 06) was administratively approved on March 13, 2018. While a Categorical Exemption has been determined, our department requires that the Board authorize the Public Works Director, or designee, to advertise a project for bids.

Recommendation(s)/Next Step(s):

Staff is completing the construction bid package. Depending on the completion timing, the project may proceed in later 2018 or spring 2019.

Fiscal Impact (if any):

The cost of the improvement project is expected to be at least $496,500. The cost is expected to increase by $192,000 if we include replacing the roof as part of the project. If we add installation of gutters, the cost is expected to increase by an additional $18,000.The project will be entirely funded by the Airport Enterprise Fund.
