Home My WebLink AboutStaff ReportStaff Report on Relocation of National Citv Public Works On August 20, 2013, City Council authorized the purchase of property located at 1726 Wilson Avenue for relocation of City Public Works (PW) facilities from 2100 Hoover Avenue. Finding a new home for Public Works is required in order to allow for the development of the Westside in- %ll Transit Oriented Development (WI-TOD) Project, which will include 201 affordable housing units and a new park adjacent to Paradise Creek. As a result of this action, staff immediately began the process of refining the scope of services, timeline and budget needed to complete the move. Prior to selecting the 1726 Wilson Avenue site for relocation of PW facilities, staff evaluated several other locations for purchase or lease such as the 30th Street Dealership, San Diego Wood Preserving on Haffley Street, Port Property adjacent to the General Services Facility, PSI / Bannister Steel sites, and other smaller sites. Other options analyzed included integrating PW functions into the WI-TOD project, exploring co -use arrangements with other agencies such as the Port of San Diego, and evaluating shared use of other City facilities or parks. Due to either budget, schedule or logistics constraints, the alternative sites, shared -use with WI-TOD, and co - use arrangements with other agencies were not feasible. Staff from each of the five PW Divisions (Streets, Sewer, Parks, Facilities Maintenance and Vehicle/Equipment Maintenance) have assisted with providing an inventory of vehicles, equipment, materials, supplies, and associated workspace and storage needs. Based on review of the inventories, space needs assessments, logistics, and compatibility with other City operations and surrounding land uses, staff recommends housing PW operations at the following existing City -owned facilities: 1) 1726 Wilson Ave • New PW yard, offices, breakroom and equipment maintenance facility • PW Streets, Sewer and Vehicle/Equipment Maintenance Divisions staff, vehicles and equipment storage • Tenant improvements include upgrades to equipment maintenance facility for environmental compliance, new bathrooms, locker room, wrought iron fencing, automated gates, public safety cameras and security system, etc. 2) 2101 Hoover Ave Storage of equipment, materials, tools and supplies (all PW Divisions) • PW Facilities Maintenance Division staff (trades specialists) workspace, vehicles and equipment storage • Purchasing staff (clerk) workspace, shipments / receivables • Tenant Improvements include structural, electrical, plumbing and HVAC upgrades, new roll -up doors, bathrooms, wash station, sinks, workspaces, secure storage and shelving, etc. 3) 1243 National City Blvd !
