SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Department: Public Works
Prepared by: Bill Guerin,
Director of Public Works
City Manager Approval:
TOPIC: ESSENTIAL FACILITIES CONSTRUCTION PROJECT – PUBLIC SAFETY
CENTER
SUBJECT: ACCEPT COMPLETION OF THE ESSENTIAL FACILITIES CONSTRUCTION
PROJECT – PUBLIC SAFETY CENTER (CITY PROJECT NO. 11291), AND
AUTHORIZE THE CITY CLERK TO FILE THE NOTICE OF COMPLETION
RECOMMENDATION: Accept completion of the project and authorize the City Clerk to file the
Notice of Completion.
BACKGROUND: In 2014, a thorough and operationally forward‐thinking Essential Facilities
Strategic Plan was developed for the City of San Rafael. The Plan presented guidance for the
replacement, modernization and/or seismic upgrade of the City’s essential services buildings,
herein referred to as “essential facilities,” to ensure that the City’s essential facilities are capable
of serving the community in the event of a major earthquake and other potential disasters.
The Essential Facilities Strategic Plan recommended a new Public Safety Center Building that
would consolidate Police Operations, Fire Station 51, the Emergency Operating Center, as well
as Fire Administrative Operations. A contract for this construction project was awarded to Alten
Construction, Inc. (“Alten”) by City Council Resolution No. 14446 adopted on December 8,
2017.
On February 5, 2018, the City issued Notice to Proceed to Alten Construction, Inc. On August
26, 2020, Alten achieved final completion of the project.
ANALYSIS:
Pursuant to Civil Code Section 3093, the City is required to record a Notice of Completion upon
City acceptance of the construction. This acceptance initiates a time period during which project
subcontractors may file stop notices seeking payment from the City from the funds owed to the
Contractor for the project work.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the City does not have current plans to host a dedication or
grand opening ceremony to celebrate the new Public Safety Center. However, staff is
collaborating with the Community Media Center of Marin to create a video commemorating the
successful completion of Phase 1 of the Essential Facilities program, which includes the Public
Safety Center, Fire Station 52 & 57. The video will be available to the public on the City of San
Rafael website soon and is planned to be shown at an upcoming City Council meeting.
