SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
Department: Economic Development
Prepared by: Tom Adams, ED Coordinator City Manager Approval:
SUBJECT: Request for Proposals (RFP) for 1313 Fifth Avenue Purchase and Relocation
RECOMMENDATION: Information Item Only — Accept Report from Staff
BACKGROUND: The City of San Rafael has begun the design and planning for a new `Public
Safety Center' building across from City Hall on city owned property on Fifth Avenue between
C and D Streets (APN 011-205-01, 04, 17). The new `Public Safety Center' building will house
the Police and Fire Department headquarters, the Emergency Operations Center, and a rebuilt
Fire Station 51. This project is part of a larger citywide `Essential Facilities' program to update
public safety facilities to current building safety standards to ensure adequate first responder
services following a major earthquake or other disaster.
As part of the `Public Safety Center' project, all three structures currently on the site (existing
Fire Station 51, Economic Development offices, and Parking Services trailer) will need to be
removed to allow for the construction of the new building. A consultant has researched the
history of both Fire Station 51 and the building at 1313 Fifth Avenue and neither structure meets
the criteria to be considered a historic resource as set forth in section 15064.5 of the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) guidelines. After analysis of the three buildings on the site,
it has been determined that only the 1313 Fifth Avenue building offers potential for a relocation
from the current site - the size and construction type of Fire Station 51 precludes relocation and
the Parking Services trailer also has issues with safe and cost effective relocation.
ANALYSIS: The city -owned building located at 1313 Fifth Avenue (APN 011-205-01), is a two
story structure approximately 1,950 square feet in size. It was built around 1905 and shortly after
it was built, it was moved from its initial location near Saint Raphael's Church to its current
location fronting Fifth Avenue between C and D streets. A small addition to the rear of the house
was constructed at a later unknown date. While it has been determined that it does not meet the
criteria to be considered a historically significant building structure as determined by CEQA
guidelines, it nonetheless has some historic elements of the turn of the century period. Given the
community sentiment for buildings of this period, city staff has developed a Request for
Proposals (RFP) process to seek an interested team to relocate and preserve the building at an
appropriate site.
FOR CITY CLERK ONLY
File No.: 2-19 x R-424
Council Meeting: 06/20/2016
Disposition: Accepted report
SAN RAFAEL CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT / Paae: 2
The intent of the RFP is to offer the 1313 Fifth Avenue building for $1 in an `as -is' condition to
a responsible and experienced team that can demonstrate a feasible plan to preserve its historic
elements at a new location. At a minimum to be considered qualified, the proposal team must
have site control for a relocation site within 5 miles of current site (west of Highway 101) and
the financial ability to complete the project. While City staff will work with responsible and
qualified proposers, the City of San Rafael will not contribute any funding to the project, will
assume no liability for relocation of the building, and will not coordinate any aspects of the
project.
Time is of the essence for this project - to prepare for the construction of the new Police/Fire
Public Safety Building, the City anticipates beginning demolition of all structures on the current
site in early spring 2017. In order for the construction project to proceed according to schedule,
1313 Fifth Avenue must be moved off the site by no later than February 1, 2017. Should the RFP
process fail to identify a qualified proposal team with a feasible plan to relocate the building or
the selected proposal team fails to perform by February 1, 2017, the structure will be demolished
along with the existing Station 51 structure and the Parking Services trailer.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no direct fiscal impact — all costs related to the relocation, re-
siting, and renovation of the 1313 Fifth Avenue building will be the responsibility of the
proposer. To the extent that this project requires some staff time to manage, there is a small
administrative cost for the project.
OPTIONS:
1) Accept the Request for Proposals (RFP) as Written.
2) Direct Staff to Modify the RFP.
3) Decline to Authorize the Release of the RFP and Provide Direction to Staff.
ACTION REQUIRED: Accept the Report from Staff.

RFP Background
As part of a long anticipated project to ensure essential facilities buildings are seismically
sound, the City of San Rafael has begun planning and design for new fire stations at three
locations in San Rafael. As part of this project, the City intends to build a new Public Safety
Building with a combined Police headquarters and Fire station on a city -owned parcel across
from City Hall. The development site for the new Public Safety Building is located on Fifth
Avenue between C and D Streets. The 1313 Fifth Avenue building is one of several structures
currently located at the Public Safety Building development site that will need to be demolished
or relocated to make way for the construction project. This RFP seeks to relocate a structure
with turn of the century architecture somewhere within the San Rafael community rather than
demolish it.
Background on 1313 Fifth Avenue
The city -owned building at 1313 Fifth Avenue (APN 011-205-01) is a two story structure
approximately 1,950 square feet in size. The structure at 1313 Fifth Avenue was built around
1905. Shortly after it was built, the building at 1313 Fifth Avenue was moved from its initial
location near Saint Raphael's Church to its current location fronting Fifth Avenue between C
and D streets. A small addition to the rear of the house was constructed at a later unknown
date. A building site plan is attached as Exhibit B.
The City recently commissioned a historic resources study of the building at 1313 Fifth Avenue
and it was determined that the building does not qualify as a historic resource under the state
historic preservation guidelines as set forth in section 15064.5 of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA). While the building does not qualify as a historic resource, the City
recognizes that the building possesses architectural elements distinctive to its turn of the
century architectural period. The 1313 Fifth Avenue building is considered a vernacular building
with modest Italianate and Queen Anne style embellishments. Given community sentiment for
buildings of this period, the City seeks to relocate and preserve the building at another site.
Relevant Planning and Zoning Documents
It is essential that the proposed relocation site comply with all City regulations related to
planning, zoning, building code, etc. The San Rafael General Plan, Zoning Code, and other
planning documentation are available on the City's website in the Planning Library section:
http://www.citvofsanrafael.org/commdev-planning-handouts/?SSScrollPosition=570
Project Schedule
Time is of the essence for this project. To prepare for the construction of the new Public Safety
Building, the City anticipates beginning demolition of all structures on the current site of the
1313 Fifth Avenue building in early spring 2017. In order for the construction project to proceed
according to schedule, the building at 1313 Fifth Avenue must be moved off the site by no later
than February 1, 2017. No extensions to this hard deadline will be considered. All proposals
shall consider all applicable project variables such as move logistics, permitting, consultant
schedules, weather, and other factors to ensure the move occurs prior to the deadline.
Required Contents of the Proposal

Asbestos Survey for 1313 Fifth Street
San Rafael, California
I. INTRODUCTION
This report presents our inspection and bulk sampling for asbestos containing materials ("ACM")
at the existing Community Development Offices in San Rafael, CA. The inspection was performed
on May 18-20, 2016. The facility consists of a 2073 sq. ft. structure located at 1313 Fifth Street.
The primary purpose of this inspection is to identify materials, which contain asbestos, which must
be removed prior to demolition of the structure. Our scope of work included an asbestos
inspection consisting of visual inspection, bulk sampling, laboratory analysis, and the generation of
the report findings. The inspection was performed by Mr. Monte Deignan, a Cal/OSHA certified
asbestos consultant and AHERA accredited building inspector. Mr. Deignan is also a CA DPH
certified lead assessor and inspector.

• California state law requires the disclosure of ACM presence during real estate transactions.
III. ASBESTOS ANALYSIS PROCEDURES
Sampling Strategy
The objective of bulk sampling was to determine through laboratory analysis whether suspected
materials at this site contain asbestos, and if so, what type and concentrations measured in
percentages. Prior to the collection of any samples, all building materials were separated into
distinct areas of homogeneity. A homogeneous area represents an area delineated by functional
and visual similarity. The area may be further defined by its location within the building, or the age
of the material.
After homogeneous areas were identified, a sufficient number of samples were collected for
submittal to the laboratory for polarized light microscopy ("PLM") analysis. Because asbestos
containing materials have compositional variability, it is possible to obtain different results from
samples taken from the same materials in the same building. Therefore, a homogeneous
sampling area with at least one positive result will result in the entire area being designated as
having asbestos containing material ("ACM").
The collection of bulk samples was based on the guidelines established by the EPA for school
buildings (Asbestos Hazard Emergency Response Act ("AHERA"), 40 CFR Part 763, EPA, 1987).
In addition, the ASHARA establishes guidelines for the inspection of commercial facilities. AHERA
and ASHARA guidelines were used to insure the most reliable procedures for sample collection
and reporting.

This report may be copied only in its entirety.
Standard sampling tools and procedures were used to obtain samples from the suspected
materials. The samples were bagged and submitted to the laboratory under standard chain of
custody protocols. Representative sample locations were noted on the floor plans of the building
and are referenced on the chain of custody form from the laboratory, Microanalytical Laboratories
of Emeryville, California.
Laboratory Analysis
Laboratory analysis was based on polarized light microscopy supplemented by dispersion staining
to observe asbestos mineral content. For the purposes of this survey, ACM is defined as any
material containing more than 1 % asbestos by weight, volume, or point count. For Cal/OSHA
purposes, Asbestos Containing Construction Materials (ACCM) is defined as any material with
greater than 0.1 % asbestos.
IV. VISUAL SURVEY FINDINGS
On the morning of May 18th, 2016 the inspection of the facility was performed, after a brief meeting
with the on site staff. The inspection process was described and a brief walk-through was
performed. The age of the building and the use of asbestos containing materials are usually
related. Most buildings from the early 1900's used asbestos in few applications. Materials added
over the years typically will be where asbestos may be found.
Walls and Structural Components
The building consists of wood framed exterior walls with wood -framed interior walls, using a
concrete foundation. The floor framing is wood joists with wood tongue and groove plank flooring.
The roof is plywood sheathing over wood rafters for the main roof. The exterior siding is horizontal
wood siding. The exterior walls use older wood window frames. The windows use glazing
compounds to secure the glass. The interior walls of the building are sheathed with gypsum board
and joint compounds. The interior ceilings use a 2 x 4 acoustic ceiling tile system. Older plaster
and lath walls and ceiling are found in all areas behind the newer or added finish materials.
Roofing Components
The roofs use composition roof shingles. Roof cements are found at most of the roof jacks, vent
exhaust, and flashing locations.
Flooring Components
The building uses a combination of composition tile, vinyl sheet flooring, and carpet. Vinyl sheet
floor is found in the kitchen and second level rest room. 12 x 12 vinyl floor tiles are used in the file
room and first floor rest room. It is assumed that additional layers of older flooring may be found
below the current floors in the office areas. The older flooring should be exposed prior to the
abatement and demolition of the building. The floor in the lower level basement space is exposed
earth or concrete.
Some materials or components were not accessed during the course of this inspection. The
inspection did not cover below grade water proofing on the foundation walls, for example. If

materials are noted that appear different from the other materials listed in the sample descriptions,
arrange for follow up inspections.
Mechanical Systems, Utilities, etc.
The mechanical and HVAC systems are located in the basement shop space. The HVAC has
been upgraded in recent years to a heat pump system that uses the existing HVAC duct and
distribution system. The existing ducts use a fiberglass insulation. The flue pipe for the HVAC and
water heater is sheet metal pipe.
Sampling of Building Materials
Samples were collected from the twenty-one different building materials during this survey. Since
no other suspect materials could be found, the sampling was considered complete. All of the
samples were catalogued as to location, condition, and submitted for PLM analysis. The samples
were hand -delivered to the laboratory using our standard chain of custody protocols on the
morning of May 21, 2016.
A previous survey at the site tested numerous materials and drew similar conclusions. The yellow
flooring in the file room and rest room was identified as vinyl sheet flooring but appears to be vinyl
tile. The vinyl floor tile and window glazing were not tested again and are assumed to contain
more than 1 % asbestos. The drywall joint compounds and wall texture tests were repeated and
found to contain less than 1 % asbestos. Supplemental point count testing is recommended for all
materials with less than 1 % asbestos. At less than 1 % asbestos many of the EPA / BAAQMD
regulations will not apply. BAAQMD requires point count testing to confirm levels of below 1 %. Cal
/ OSHA regulates asbestos to 0.1 % and still has minor requirements for any detectable asbestos.
Many of the insulation products in this building are fiberglass, which may require special handling
methods to maintain exposure levels below OSHA permissible exposure limits (PEL). Construction
workers are advised to minimize damaging and disturbing fiberglass insulation. All construction
personnel are advised to refer to the OSHA guidelines for safe working procedures and personnel
monitoring requirements when disturbing fiberglass insulation materials.

V. CONCLUSIONS
This report may be copied only in its entirety.
Based on the visual inspection, sampling and laboratory analysis, the following results are noted:
• The 12 x 12 vinyl floor tile are assumed positive for asbestos, based on earlier reports.
• The drywall joint compounds are asbestos containing at all interior locations.
• The exterior stucco is positive for asbestos at the front entry stair location.
• The roof cement and composition shingle roofing materials are non detect for asbestos.
• The vinyl sheet floor and vinyl cove base are non detect for asbestos.
• The plaster and acoustic ceiling tile materials were non detect for asbestos.
• The lights in the building are mostly fitted with fluorescent tubes or bulbs and will require
recycling if the light fixtures are removed or replaced. The ballasts in the lighting fixtures shall
be checked for possible PCB content, if the fixtures are removed. All HVAC refrigerants must
be removed prior to removal or demolition of cooling equipment.
VI. RECOMMENDATIONS
Based on the visual inspection, sampling and laboratory analysis conducted, the following
recommendations apply to the materials found on this site:
The vinyl tiles that were positive must be removed using friable abatement practices for
asbestos, in the areas scheduled for renovation. All tile and mastic are considered as non -
friable asbestos containing material ("ACM"). Any removal shall be performed using negative
pressure containment, wet methods, following all applicable regulatory guidelines.
2. The drywall and joint compounds at ceilings and walls at interior locations should be abated
prior to any disturbance / demolition. NEHSAPS notification is not required for drywall. The
drywall may be left in place for demolition, but will require that the demolition of the structure
must be performed by a contractor registered for asbestos related work by Cal / OSHA.
3. The window glazing at all windows and the exterior plaster should be tested using point count
PLM testing to determine if the materials may be left in place or abated prior to demolition.
4. The acoustic tiles, vinyl sheet floor, and roofing and plasters in the building do not require any
asbestos abatement work / removal.
5. Notification to the BAAQMD is required for the regulated asbestos containing materials
(RACM) found in the building. An additional notification is required for the demolition of the
building.
6. Notify the asbestos consultant to arrange for additional sampling if different types of flooring or
roofing products are discovered during the course of the demolition. Any chemicals to be used

on the project must be accompanied by a Safety Data Sheet ("SDS") and appropriate hazard
communication training for all employees at the site.
VII. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY
The work and resulting recommendations for this survey are in accordance with generally
accepted building survey practices and the AHERA protocols for asbestos inspections. The report
generators provide no other guarantees, either expressed or implied. Conclusions and
recommendations presented in issued reports are qualitative judgments based on the prevailing
regulations affecting the scope of this work at the time of the inspection of the particular
building(s). The scope of work was limited to the visible and accessible parts of the building,
limited sampling analysis, and data review. The client recognizes that site conditions or access
may vary from those encountered at the time of the inspection, and that changing conditions may
cause us to alter our recommendations. We have attempted to view as much of the building as
possible, without opening hidden areas, removing all of the ceiling panels, or damaging existing
property. If conditions or situations occur that expose these non -inspected areas, we will be glad
to continue our inspection at that time for those locations.
This report is for the express use of the client for whom it was prepared, and is not intended for
use by third parties. The authors of this report will not be responsible for interpretation or sue by
third parties of any of the information contained in this report. The building survey for asbestos is
intended to provide an initial assessment of asbestos containing material at specific locations, and
may not be valid at other locations or for other unique materials. Additional site evaluations could
result in information that would lead us to revise our conclusions and recommendations. If any
doubts exist, call for additional inspections or testing.

The finish materials in the interior building spaces are all consistent. The interior
walls at all areas are sheathed with drywall finished with joint compounds. The
interior drywall compounds and texture layers were positive for asbestos. The
floors are carpet over original plank floors. The flooring at the kitchen is vinyl
sheet floor. The vinyl sheet floor at the kitchen and second level bathrooms
were non detect for asbestos. It is assumed that older flooring may be found be-
low the existing carpeted areas. A supplemental inspection should be performed
after the building is vacated, but prior to the abatement and demolition work at
the site. The duct system and HVAC system are located below the floor level at
the basement. Photo 2 shows the newer HVAC and water heater in the base-
ment part of the building. The HVAC insulation is fiberglass.
The attic above the offices is not insulated. Residual roof shingle debris and in-
terior plaster is found in the attic. Photo 3 shows the attic above the second level
offices. The chimney appears to have been shortened and no longer extends
above roof line. The roof sheathing consist of original skip sheathing, with recent
plywood for the current composition roof shingles. No asbestos was detected in
the plaster or roof shingle debris. See the complete report for more information.

The exterior of the building is mostly original, with a single story addition at the
South side of the building. The siding on the exterior is 1 x 8 horizontal wood
siding. The trim at doors and windows is wood as well. Most of the original
windows are wood framed. The windows use glazing putty to secure the glass.
Previous testing found that the glazing putty in the kitchen window contains 2%
asbestos. The kitchen window appears similar to most of the other windows,
thus all windows should be assumed to contain asbestos in the glazing putty.
Abatement of the windows would be required prior to demolition. If the windows
are recycled or sold, the new users should be advised of the asbestos content.
Due to the age of the windows, they should also be assumed to be painted with
lead based paints.
The roof is a newer composition roof shingle system, with roof cements used at
roof jacks and flashings. The roof shingles are non detect for asbestos. The roof
cements are negative for asbestos as well.
Photo 5 is a view from the West side of the building, showing the addition to the
right of the photo.
The lighting system in most parts of the building are fluorescent lamped. The ex-
isting tubes / lamps should be collected for recycling at the time of removal / re-
placement. The fluorescent ballasts should also be checked for PCB content as
the time of removal / demolition. The HVAC refrigerants must also be collected
for recycling prior to demolition. See the complete report for more information.
