BACKGROUND From June 1998 to July 2001, RDA completed Phase 1, Project Development, for a Public Safety Building Project. This phase included extensive public outreach, selection of a short list of four potential sites, preliminary environmental assessments, economic analysis of the four sites, a split facility study, building diagrams and development of an architectural program. Following Council’s direction to reduce the cost and size of the project, a split facility study was performed and the consultant evaluated the removal of Fire Administration from the architectural program. This resulted in the June 2000 Project Definition Document that includes cost estimates, a split facility study, conceptual diagrams and a summary matrix of the four potential sites (El Camino/Page Mill, Park Boulevard/Page Mill, California Avenue and Civic Center). The Project Definition Document recommends that the operationally preferred alternative is the combined Police Department, dispatch and Emergency Operations Facility. CMR:375:01 Page 1 of 4 In July 2000, Council approved staff’s request for RDA to continue the evaluation and analyses to reduce the size and cost of the project. RDA performed a preliminary review of a stand-alone public safety building on the Palo Alto Downtown Library site on Forest Avenue. The Downtown Library site has been eliminated from further consideration due to its small size and negative neighborhood impacts. Since the Civic Center site is centrally located, has greater community support and is a City-owned property, Council decided to concentrate on the Public Safety building expansion and modernization at the Civic Center site. The building size at the Civic Center site was reduced from approximately 52,790 square feet to 49,000 square feet excluding parking and property/evidence warehouse storage area for bikes and bulk property/evidence items. In July 2001, Council directed staff to proceed with Phase 2, Conceptual Design, of the expansion!modernization of the Public Safety building at the Civic Center site. DISCUSSION The work to be performed under the contract amendment will provide conceptual design services for the Public Safety building and include a 9-1-1 Emergency Dispatch Center and Emergency Operations Center for the Civic Center site. Four scenarios will be evaluated for the Civic Center site. As noted in CMR:291:01, this phase will address issues such as additional staffing costs associated with off-site property/evidence storage space, space shortfalls, and parking and temporary relocation resulting from the expansion and modernization, of the current site (Attachment A). Scenarios will be reduced to two options and will be presented to the Architectural Review Board and City Council early next year. After a preferred option is selected, the conceptual design will be developed and presented to the Planning Commission and City Council in Spring 2002. The project includes public art and incorporation of green building elements. RDA will work with staff and coordinate with the Public Arts Commission in developing art concepts. The green building elements provide opportunities for sustainable design promoting: ¯low energy consumption, daylighting and reduction in associated life-cycle costs ¯use of replenishable and/or undepletable sources, including wind, sun, wood from sustainable forests, etc. ¯reduced embodied energy hidden in the manufacture and transportation of building materials ¯recycling, both through the use of recycled materials, and through using materials that themselves can be recycled in the future ¯flexibility and adaptability to increase the useful life of the building ¯healthy and uplifting working environments for employees and visitors CMR:375:01 Page 2 of 4 The project will also include sustainable building strategies using the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Rating System, a green building rating system, as a tool to develop the green building priority matrix to aid in research and material selection. Pending Council direction, RDA would complete the following specific tasks for this project: 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6). 7) Assessment of existing site and utility conditions of the Civic Center site Evaluation of four scenarios for the Civic Center site Evaluation and conceptual design of communications and life safety systems Development of seismic design criteria meeting essential facility standards Environmental assessment and certification Conceptual design of the preferred option revised cost estimates and schedules Community, Public Art Commission, Architectural Review Board, Planning Commission and City Council reviews.. RESOURCE IMPACT Funds in the amount of $400,000 are included in the FY 2001-2002 Capital Improvement Project budget to cover the costs associated with this phase of the project. This amount includes a 5 percent contingency factor. POLICY IMPLICATIONS This request is consistent with prior Council direction. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW This project is subject to the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). An "Initial Study" will be completed during this conceptual design phase.
