DIRECT the Clerk of the Board to publish the Notice to Contractors in accordance RECOMMENDATION(S): (CONT'D) with Public Contract Code Section 22037, inviting bids for this project. FISCAL IMPACT: No General Funds are involved. The new Martinez Wellness Center will be funded by a combination of Federal and State funding, contained within the Contra Costa Regional Medical Enterprise 1 Capital Budget, and a Federal Grant. BACKGROUND: Plans and specifications for the project have been prepared for the General Services Department by RMW Architecture and Interiors and filed with the Clerk of the Board by the Deputy General Services Director. The construction cost estimate is $6,000,000. The general prevailing wage rates are on file with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors and will be the minimum rates paid on this project. A new, 10,000-square-foot, single-story, out-patient ambulatory and mental health clinic (Martinez Wellness Center) is planned to be constructed on existing Parking Lot ‘A’ on the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) campus, in close proximity to the hospital building. The new clinic will replace a smaller, deteriorated health clinic building that was recently demolished. The new Martinez Wellness Center will provide essential ambulatory and mental health care services for County residents. Twenty-one existing parking stalls in Parking Lot ‘A’ will be lost due to construction of the new clinic. Five new ADA parking stalls and one drop-off parking space have been designed for the main entrance to the clinic. Visitor parking for the new clinic will be available across the street at the 20 Allen Street parking lot (45 spaces) and at the new Parking Lot ‘E’ (80 spaces) to be constructed on the CCRMC campus. Twenty-five new trees will be planted as part of the new landscaping around the clinic. Six existing trees will be removed, including two found to be in poor condition. On January 20, 2011, the Department of Conservation and Development determined that the Project is categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Section 15302, Class 2a, of the CEQA Guidelines. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: Without the new clinic, there will be less out-patient ambulatory and mental health services available, and the length of time for scheduled appointments will continue to be excessive. CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT: Not applicable.
