Renovation of a fire / police facility in Santa Ana, California. Conceptual plans call for the renovation of a fire / police facility.

Online Q&A Yes Q&A Deadline 01/06/2023 2:00 PM (PST) The City of Santa Ana is (CSA) soliciting proposals for Architectural/Engineering, Interior Design, and Construction Administration services for renovation and adaptive reuse of the historic Cypress Fire Station. The Cypress Fire Station, located at 625 South Cypress Avenue in the Pacific Park Neighborhood, was designed by Frederik M. Eley in 1928. The building is approximately 3,500 square feet, single story with high vaulted ceilings. It is currently vacant and as a result, has been subjected to repeated vandalism and squatters. The interior of the building was recently demolished down to wood framing in an effort to eliminate hiding spaces. The City would like to transform the former fire station into a new Santa Ana Police Athletic & Activity League (PAAL) center to serve youth and seniors of the community while maintaining and restoring the exterior integrity of the building. PAAL is an integral community program run by the Santa Ana Police Department that focusses on building a bond between kids and police officers through education, fitness and activities. It offers tutoring, sports team, field trips and much more. The new PAAL center will be unique in that it will also serve seniors. The City is seeking a qualified firm to develop Contract Documents for use in a competitive bid process for construction, as further defined below under Scope of Work and Consultant Responsibilities. In addition, Consultant shall determine cost estimate for construction, so funding can be sought and secured. There is currently no construction budget for this project. Scope of work shall include, but is not limited to, finalizing building program, preparation of concept design and design development plans, preparation of construction plans and specifications, preparation of cost estimate, support during bid advertisement, and assistance during construction. Scope will also include coordination, reviews, permitting, and approvals from internal CSA agencies, Pacific Park Neighborhood Association, and the Historic Resources Commission. The method of Contractor Selection has not been determined at this time.
