Lango, General Services Director Date:June 9, 2009 Contra Costa County Subject:Acceptance of Plans and Specifications for the Remodel and ADA upgrades at 2425 Bisso Lane, Concord for the Health Services Department BACKGROUND: (CONT'D) be leased to another tenant. The Employment and Human Services Department (EHS) currently occupies approximately 19,000 square feet at 2425 Bisso Lane, Concord (Bisso). EHS is intending to relocate their Bisso staff to the new EHS facility in Pleasant Hill and to 40 Douglas, Martinez. The Health Services Department (HSD) has determined that the impending available space at Bisso will meet their needs. Relocating CCCMHP to Bisso will also allow for consolidation of HSD services at Bisso since HSD has another children's program there. In addition, relocating to Bisso is more cost effective to HSD than the current month-to-month lease. CCCMHP is currently paying $2.11 per square foot for Oak Grove, compared to $.80 per square foot for Bisso. In order to meet HSD's program and service needs, the space at Bisso requires remodeling work. HSD also intends to relocate its Older Adult Mental Heath Program (OAMHP) to Bisso. Current OAMHP staff is located in leased space at 1340 Arnold Drive, Martinez. HSD recently added sixteen new staff members who are temporarily located at 1330 Arnold Drive, Martinez. To accommodate the newly expanded program, HSD plans to utilize the impending available space (which will be remodeled) at Bisso. By relocating to Bisso, the entire staff will be consolidated into one location. In addition, relocating to Bisso will result in cost savings to HSD. OAMHP is currently paying $1.98 per square foot for 1330 Arnold Drive, and $1.92 per square foot for 1340 Arnold Drive, compared to $.80 per square foot at Bisso. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If the recommendation is not approved, HSD may not be able to find adequate space that meets their needs before their lease expires, and will not achieve the anticipated cost savings of the proposed office space relocations.
