BOARD/COMMISSION REVIEW:
N/A
BACKGROUND:
The Department of Public Works - Public Building Operations Division issued Bid 19-143 for the demolition and disposal of the building located at 414 E. Fifth Avenue. The contractor is required to remove all existing equipment, piping, fencing, building foundations and walls. Additionally, the contractor will provide traffic control and protection, utility disconnection, and backfill. All work shall be done in accordance with all applicable City, County and State requirements.
The building, constructed in 1981, is located on the northeast corner of Loomis Street and 5th Avenue and served as the Department of Public Works until 2009. Since then, the building has been vacant and aside from periodic storage of equipment and training activities, the building serves no purpose. The building is rapidly deteriorating and will be removed, in part, as a safety precaution. The building will not be used in the future and the cost for long-term maintenance and security of the site is not deemed cost effective.
The site will instead be restored for use as temporary daily fee parking. There are currently 115 parking spaces on the lot. With the demolition of the building, it is anticipated that an additional 263 parking spaces will be added for a total of 378 daily fee parking spaces.
