The improvements are necessary to facilitate the CBOC VA project that will be located in the former Gates Toyota building located at 333 W Western Avenue. The improvements consist of exterior building improvements and improvements to the parking area located west of the building. The exterior building improvements consist of aesthetic and functional project components. To meet current code, all of the windows along the alley or east side of the building will need to be blocked in or replaced with new fire code -rated windows to meet code for building spacing. Also, all of the windows on the second floor will be covered over or modified to present a uniform appearance for the south and west faces of the building. The windows are not being replaced or filled in because of the uncertainty with the reuse of the second floor space in the future. Once all of the exterior work is done, the east, south and west faces of the building will be painted in the southern half (old section) of the building complex. The site improvements include work to make the parking and walk areas more accessible for the future site use. Key items will include the removal of Franklin Street and shifting the drive to the west to create a drop -off area in front of the building and then create a more ADA compliant parking area connection to the building. New curb, walk and landscaping will be done as part of this work too. The total project budget for all of this work is $432,000. The work will all be publically bid through the Board of Public Works. Staff requests approval of Resolution 3005 and the Addendum To Master Agency Agreement for the ACSNA Project Exterior Site Improvements Project. What We Do Today Makes A Difference!
