DISCUSSION Background The Parks and Recreation office building was constructed and has been occupied since 1997. Since opening, there have been no improvements to the interior of the building (paint or flooring) since its original construction. The staff working out of this building perform a variety of activities which result in a mixture of both office and field related work in all type of weather conditions. Due to the nature of the work performed by staff based out of this building (in the field, parks, and facilities during all weather conditions), the age of the building, the service to the public and the passage of twenty years, the interior of the building requires rehabilitation. At this stage, the flooring and the fabric furniture cannot be sufficiently cleaned or is worn out. The rehabilitation of the Parks and Recreation Office building includes new furniture in some areas as well as the rearrangement of modular furnishing to create a new open office layout. The new layout will reflect the use of areas by multiple staff members at different times of day, and incorporate new “all weather” flooring, painting throughout the building, and an IT infrastructure upgrade (the facility has the oldest fiber of all City facilities and it must be upgraded). Parks and Recreation Staff will work out of other city facilities while construction is underway. Previous Council or Advisory Body Action This project was identified in the 2017-19 Financial Plan that was approved by Council. This project was not completed during the 2017-19 financial plan because funds were re-appropriated to complete the Laurel Lane Complete Street project. The project is an approved CIP in the 2019-21 Financial Plan (Page 351). Packet Page 79 Item 6 Policy Context Per the October 2018 Purchasing Policy Update to the July 2015 Financial Management Manual, Council approval is required for Public Projects that cost over $175,000. Public Engagement Public engagement was done during the initial identification of this project to be included in the 2017-19 Financial Plan. The Parks and Recreation Commission has also been apprised of this project. CONCURRENCE There is concurrence from the Community Development Department through its review of the project for building permit issuance. This project also has concurrence from the Parks and Recreation Department through its involvement in the project development process and review of project plans. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW This project is exempt from environmental review under Section 15301 Class 1 (existing facilities) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines because the project proposes to work within the existing building footprint and replace furniture with similar equipment. The project is consistent with the applicable general plan policies as well as with applicable City Regulations. FISCAL IMPACT Budgeted: Yes Budget Year: 2019-20 Funding Identified: Yes Fiscal Analysis: Funding Sources Current FY Cost Annualized On-going Cost Total Project Cost General Fund: Capital Outlay Fund Local Revenue Measure $400,000 $400,000 State Federal Fees Other: Total $400,000 N/A $400,000 Packet Page 80 Item 6 Project Cost Estimate Construction Estimate $340,000 Contingency (20%) $60,000 Total for Project $400,000 The Parks and Recreation Office Rehabilitation Project was originally identified in the 2017-19 Financial Plan (page E2-29 through E2-30). The project is was funded for design and partially funded for construction in FY 18-19 and construction in 2019-20. In June 2018, staff recommended, and Council approved, the appropriation of this project’s construction funding of $61,000 to the Laurel Lane Complete Streets Project. Sufficient funding remained to complete the project design phase. Additional funding was requested and approved in the 2019-21 Financial Plan; this additional budget allocation was necessary to support the need for new modular furniture and IT Equipment that would further extend the functionality of the facility, as well as provide additional contingency funds to support increasing costs of construction. The approved budget appropriated $400,000 to support the project construction phase, which is 100% funded through the Local Revenue Measure. ALTERNATIVES Deny authorization to advertise. Denying authorization to advertise this project is not recommended because the Parks and Recreation Office Building is in need of rehabilitation and advertising this project for bids will allow the City to capitalize on the investment made to date for design development.
