THE CITY OF o, PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION PLEASANTON. AGENDA REPORT April 11, 2019 Item 4 TITLE: REVIEW THE CENTURY HOUSE FACILITY ASSESSMENT REPORT DETAILING RENOVATION STRATEGIES AND CHOOSE THE RENOVATION STRATEGY PREFERRED BY THE PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSION SUMMARY The Pleasanton Century House, located at 2401 Santa Rita Road,, has been closed to public use since 2014 due to numerous building and life safety code deficiencies. The City of Pleasanton retained the services of Jeff Katz Architecture (JKA) to provide a comprehensive analysis of the building and determine structural, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, and Americans with Disabilities. Act (ADA) issues and deficiencies. The attached assessment report dated March 30, 2019 details JKA's findings. The report also analyzes different strategies to renovate the building so it can be opened to public use, and estimates the cost of each of the strategies. There are four strategies identified along with respective cost estimates: 1. Make minimal improvements to accessibility and structural issues thereby allowing small group docent -led tours of the first floor. In this scenario the building's first floor would operate similar to a museum, where the public could view spaces and learn about the history of the building. ($500,000) 2. Correct identified issues on the first floor to allow access and use similar to the past, while closing access to the second floor completely. ($2.4 million) 3. Correct identified issues on both the first and second floors to allow access and use similar to the past. This would require installation of an elevator outside the current building envelope. ($3.0 million) 4. Correct identified issues on both the first and second floors, while at the same time relocating walls, stairs, etc. within the existing building to increase programming opportunities and to allow a wider range of activities. In this scenario the stairs would be relocated and an elevator installed within the existing building. ($3.5 million) RECOMMENDATION Review the Pleasanton Century House Assessment Report and choose the renovation strategy preferred by the Parks and Recreation Commission.
