Approve construction documents for “Small Bore Association Lead Remediation”; and 2. Authorize staff to advertise for bids and authorize the City Manager to award the construction contract if the lowest responsible bid is within the Engineer’s Estimate of $221,500; and 3. Authorize allocation of $209,000 from the General Capital Fund and $70,000 from the Sewer Fund for a total of $279,000, with $244,000 to the construction account and $35,000 to the construction management account of the project. DISCUSSION The City of San Luis Obispo intends to demolish the Prado Day Center and the adjacent Small Bore Association (SBA) Indoor Gun Range to make way for the expansion of the Water Resource Recovery Facility (WRFF). The Prado Day Center will continue to operate in its current location until the new homeless facility, currently being built across the street on Prado Road, is complete. The SBA Indoor Gun Range is vacant, and unused for many years, and ready for demolition. Recent testing performed at the SBA Indoor Gun Range indicates the presence of lead and asbestos containing materials. Although the levels of asbestos were considered trace, or non- hazardous, lead at a hazardous level was detected in the paint on the doors, and the concrete floor. Also, portions of the floor of the range is soil and contains a level of lead contamination that can be considered hazardous. This project will remediate the lead contaminated soil within the building prior to the demolition of the structure itself. The structure needs to be demolished to make way for the WRRF upgrade project. Staff recommends approval of the construction documents, and authorization to advertise and fund the project.
