Uberuaga, City Administrator (A,- Prepared by: F'Louis F. Sandoval, Director of Public Works Ron Hagan, Director of Community Services Subject: PIER BUILDINGS Consistent with Council Policy? [ $Yes APPROVED BY CITY COUNCIL [ ] New Policy or Exception !r Af 192i- I Statement of Issue, Recommendation, Analysis, Funding Source, Alternative Actions, Attachments:j& STATEMENT OF ISSUE.. Pursuant to the City's agreement with Ruby's, a new restaurant must be built at the end of the pier. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Authorize staff to move forward with the construction of a new restaurant at the end of the pier. ANALYSES• The approved conceptual plan for the Municipal Pier includes the construction of a new restaurant, bait and tackle shop, snack shop, public restroom, and lifeguard tower. The current budget for the construction of these five new buildings is $1.3 million. This budget was based upon cost estimates supplied two years ago by a cost estimating consultant. At that time, the consultant only had the conceptuals and floor plans to work with. Initially, the construction of these buildings was to be a phased endeavor. On June 3, 1993, bids for the public restrooms and lifeguard tower were received and opened. The low bid of $451,300 far exceeded the $300,000 budget for these two buildings. Therefore, the bids were rejected. Subsequent to the rejection of bids, staff completed a preliminary cost analysis of the bids. Based upon this analysis, it became apparent that the cost of the terrazzo exterior finish was quite expensive. Furthermore, staff concluded that other specified items would also be costly. Therefore, the architectural firm of Anthony & Langford Architects was hired to complete a detailed cost reduction analysis of each building. The analysis included the stipulation that design concepts remain the same. On November 5, 1993, Anthony & Langford completed a detailed cost reduction analysis (see attached). Based upon this analysis, the following savings are possible for each building: Current Anticipated Building; Anticipated Cost Cost After Savings Savings Bait & Tackle $202,800 $145,300 $57,500 Snack Shop 190,000 138,500 51,500 Ruby's 1,340,000 1,126,500 213,500 Restrooms 231,100 169,600 61,500 LIfeguard Tower 220,200 165,100 55,100 Totals: $2,184,100 $1,745,000 $439,100 P10 5/85 RCA; Pier Buildings January 17,1994 Page two Staff has reviewed the cost reduction analysis and recommends that the applicable changes in materials be included in the construction of each structure. However, the cost savings of these material changes are not nearly enough to offset the shortfall in the funds budgeted for construction. Therefore, and pursuant to the attached Inter -Department Communication from the Director of Community Services, staff recommends that only the restaurant be constructed at this time. The estimated cost, as outlined below, is within the current budget of $1.3 million. Estimated Cost of Constructing Restaurant Cost Item Am un Construction Contract $1,126,500 Change Order Budget 112,650 Supplemental Expenditures 11.265 Total $1,250,415 The timeline and source of funding for the remaining four buildings is unknown at this time. However, staff has set a goal of constructing these buildings within the next three to five years. It may be possible to obtain sufficient funds from the proposed refinancing as delineated in Mr. Hagan's attached memo, dated December 8, 1993. FUNDING SOURCE: Budgeted funds of $1.3 million are available for construction. ALTERNATIVE ACTION: Appropriate additional funding and construct two or more of the remaining buildings. .ATTACHMENTS• 1. Detailed cost reduction analysis by Anthony & Langford. 2.

The pier buildings (Ruby's Restaurant, lifeguard tower, rest rooms, snack shop and bait and tackle shop) 2. Maxwell's/Pier Plaza 3. South Beach improvements (lifeguard headquarters to Beach Boulevard) 4. Bluff Top Park/Below the Bluffs Parking Lot improvements Priorities - In analyzing the availability of grants and city funds, the following are Community Services' priorities to complete the projects: 1. Maxwell's/Pier Plaza project 2. Ruby's Restaurant on the pier 3. Bluff Top Park/Below the Bluffs Parking Lot improvements 4. South Beach improvements 5. Remaining pier buildings In this endeavor, Council has, to date, appropriated $3 million of the $10 million in COPS for the Pier Plaza project; $1 million for the pier buildings; and, tentatively approved, $1 million for the Bluff Top Park improvements. As you are aware, there is currently $5 Bob Eichblatt December 8, 1993 Page two million of COPs allocated to the Central Library expansion. In addition to the COPS, both Public Works and Community Services have received grants for the Bluff Top Park and the South Beach improvements. In addition, Parking Authority funds will be available after the Parking Authority Bond is paid off at the end of this year. Consequently, the revenue that was previously being paid for the bond can be applied to the debt service on the $5 million of CON being used for the library when the library is refinanced with its own bond issue. Based on the above scenario, Community Services is capable of operating the pier with a temporary bait and tackle stand, portable snack concession, modular rest rooms, and the existing Tower Zero. We can continue to do the grant improvements in the south beach while maintaining the existing facilities until such time as the library project is refinanced and the CON become available for these projects. Tower Zero is dilapidated but still functional. It is hoped that the library will be refinanced in the very near future so that we can move forward with the remainder of the pier buildings, including Tower Zero. Summary: Community Services recommends that the current $1.3 million allocated for the pier buildings be used to build Ruby's Restaurant, that the remaining buildings be held off until the library is refinanced, and that those COPS be used for the pier buildings and the South Beach improvements. The revenue source for these CON would be the Parking Authority revenue that is freed up once the existing bond has been paid off. Community Services, along with Public Works, will continue the development process for Maxwell's /Pier Plaza and the Bluff Top Park/Below the Bluffs Parking Lot. This should allow the city to complete all of the beach projects within the next three to five years.
