Recommendation of the DLAC

The DLAC unanimously voted to recommend Option B, relocating the
Downtown Branch Library to a mixed-use project on Cedar, Lincoln,
and Cathcart Streets.

Committee members agree that Option gives the Downtown Branch Library the desired
square footage balanced with a fiscally responsible price. The mixed-use building has the
potential to be a beautiful and vibrant asset to the community, allowing for new programs
and spaces that could increase library usage across all age groups and demographics.

Option enables Santa Cruz to become a library that is prepared for the 21St century and be a
vital, relevant, and dynamic resource for residents for the next thirty years. Our vision
includes: state-of-the-art technology and expanded free technological services; a safe
gathering space for teens; meeting rooms of various sizes to provide exciting opportunities for
the community; tutoring spaces; genealogy Et local history; and a transformative children?s
area.

The mixed-use space also has the potential to assuage current safety and security concerns
through purposeful architectural improvements.

Committee members also appreciate that the Downtown Branch Library will remain open
while new construction commences.

Based upon reports by Nesh Dhillon, Executive Director of the Farmers? Market, and various
city agencies, Committee members recognize that a new mixed-use structure has the
potential to facilitate more affordable housing units downtown, mitigate the expected infill
of existing surface lots, and provide the impetus for an all-weather, covered, outdoor
Farmers? Market and Antique Faire.

In addition to reaffirming our recommendation for Option B, the DLAC wishes to communicate
to the City Council that partially renovating the existing library, Option A, is not a logical

alternative.

Committee members recognized that the partial renovation Option A offers is an irreSponsible

use of Measure funds.

. Option A offers 8,000 square feet of less usable space than other options and the DLAC
did not want to vote for an option that would not meet the expressed needs of the
Santa Cruz community. With the additional 8,000 square feet, the library can have a
dedicated teen space, more public computers and printers, tutoring rooms, genealogy
and local history, and community meeting rooms. Without the additional square
footage, the library is limited to existing services, or eliminating existing services to

Final Edit: February 13, 2018

 

 

add the above programming needs, neither of which were acceptable options for the
DLAC.

The DLAC felt that Option A was fiscally irresponsible and continued the habit of
deferring maintenance, one of the reasons for this situation in the first place. Option A
disrupts services and spends millions of dollars on a building that would not last 30
years; would yield substantial yearly maintenance costs; would not meet modern
public library program and service goals; nor fully address issues such as updated
wiring, an HVAC system, and a new roof.

Committee members were also concerned that most of the purposeful architectural
design elements which enhance safety and security could not be implemented with
Option A.

Option would be able to utilize all 44,000 square feet and meet all programmatic
goals, but was deemed too expensive.

Committee members want the City Council to know that the DLAC has confidence in
the estimates provided by the architect. While these numbers have been called into
question by some members of the public, the estimates are based on other library
construction projects in the Greater Bay Area.

While the DLAC voted unanimously for Option B, we did so with confidence that the City
council would approve the new mixed-use construction in tandem with the following:

1.

The city council would provide a mechanism for library administration to have control
of the design in all phases of construction. We believe the architects and city manager
when they say that a library can coexist harmoniously in a mixed-use building with a
parking garage and other tenants and be beautiful and inviting. However, we also
share concerns with some members of the public that a mixed-use structure, without
input and collaboration, could result in an ugly, noisy, dimly lit, and poorly-ventilated
library.

If Option is approved, the DLAC realizes that the library would technically be a
tenant but expects the city to recognize the Library as a full partner in ongoing
operational decisions.

The DLAC voted for Option assuming that the City Council would provide a way for
library architects and advocates to be consulted throughout the design process.

Committee members want to be sure the new Downtown Branch Library contains:

0 Many large windows that envelop the new library with tons of natural light
throughout its entirety

0 Clean ventilation, free from car exhaust, around the entry and inside the
building

0 Soundproofing from cars on the ramps and garage, as well as the mixed-use
tenants

Final Edit: February 13, 2018

 

 

 

 

Purposeful architecture design around the entrance and perimeter of the
building that discourages loitering and encourages flow and increased security

0 Inviting curb appeal
0 Green building principles throughout

2. Committee members are aware that a new parking garage has the potential to be part
of a broader vision for the city that includes more affordable housing, alternative
tranSportation, and a thriving downtown. We were told that the mixed-use space
could potentially contain affordable housing units; experimental and affordable
?micro-units;? and extra parking spaces that would enable additional housing units --
new housing could be built more densely without on-site parking. Many committee
members voted for Option with the intention that the new library is an integral part
of this vibrant, dynamic vision for the Santa Cruz community. Although this Visioning is
beyond the scope of the mission, the Committee?s hope is that the parking
garage can be linked to positive changes downtown, particularly affordable housing.
Committee members request that the new mixed-use construction contains or directly
facilitates more downtown affordable housing units.

3. Consolidating parking downtown by eliminating many (or all) surface lots. The city
manager informed the DLAC that surface parking lots are an inefficient use of land,
particularly when demand downtown (and throughout the city) is at a premium. The
committee was told that a new parking garage will ultimately not add many parking
spaces downtown because surface lots will likely be eliminated. The city manager
shared a vision of a downtown that includes a new parking garage, but also
accommodates exciting new developments, like affordable housing, on existing surface
parking lots. Committee members? unanimous vote for the new mixed-use construction
is predicated on the assumption that surface parking lots downtown are repurposed.

4. Relocating the Farmers? Market in a way that increases its vitality and incorporates its
long-term goals. The DLAC has been assured by Nesh Dhillon, the Executive Director of
the Santa Cruz Community Farmers? Markets, that Option will not negatively affect
the Downtown Farmers? Market. He is encouraged that his vision of an all-weather,
covered market space downtown can be achieved. The DLAC voted for Option on the
good faith that the Downtown Farmers? Market would be enhanced by the move, and
that the City Council will agree to implement the Market?s long-term goals.

Overview of the DLAC and its Process

Measure Background

In 2013, the Santa Cruz Public Libraries (SCPL) engaged in a comprehensive facilities master
planning process to assess the needs at each of our branches, and concluded that a local
source of funding was needed to upgrade and improve local libraries. On February 11, 2016,
the SCPL Facilities Financing Authority unanimously voted to place a $67 million bond
measure (later designated Measure S) on the June 7, 2016, ballot to address the most urgent
needs. With 70% approval, voters agreed to fund Measure 5.

Measure funds are allocated to the government jurisdiction (the City of Santa Cruz, the City
of Capitola, the City of Scotts Valley, and Santa Cruz County) for the improvements of library
buildings in the communities they serve. Since the bond measure was approved, new
construction of the Capitola and Felton branches is already designed, as well as analysis
started for the renovations for the La Selva, Branciforte, Garfield Park, Boulder Creek, and
Live Oak branches.

Downtown Library Advisory Committee Background

In the fall of 2016, with concerns about escalating construction costs, the City of Santa Cruz
requested the development of a study to examine the feasibility of including the library in a
joint-use project with a parking garage on the city-owned property on Cedar Street. A
consultant (Group 4) found the project would be ?less expensive? and an ?ideal location.?
The City Council directed the formation of the Downtown Library Advisory Committee (DLAC).

The Downtown Library Advisory Committee, working with an architectural consultant, was
directed to:

0 Explore national library trends;
0 Assess current and future library services;
. Examine the existing library building conditions; and,

. Evaluate the library service needs for Santa Cruz City residents over the next twenty
years.

The final report of the committee should make recommendations as to:
. The programmatic scope of Downtown Branch Library services;

. The feasibility of co-locating the SCPL administrative offices (currently residing
elsewhere in 14,000 square feet) on-site with the Downtown Branch Library;

0 The evaluation of the three site options for the Downtown Branch Library
(new/ current site, remodel/current site, and new/ parking garage site);

- An estimate of the cost of program goals against the current budget.

DLAC Meetings and Workflow

DLAC members met publicly twelve times between June and December of 2017.
Subcommittees on Public Input Process, Community Input Meeting, and Final Report Writing
were formed and met regularly. The DLAC meetings were open to the public, advertised in
advance, and contained public comment opportunities at each meeting.

The Downtown Library Advisory Committee:

. Reviewed the library governance, Measure S, the Library Facilities' Master Plan, and
the Strategic Plan (June 14)

- Completed a walk-through of the current library and reviewed the library?s technology
plan, work-plan, and area demographics (June 29)

- Toured the Los Gatos Public Library and reviewed characteristics of contemporary

Public Input Outreach

All DLAC meetings, aside from subcommittee meetings, were public, and announced on the
SCPL website and the City of Santa Cruz website. All committee materials were posted on the
library website. Articles on the process appeared in the Santa Cruz Sentinel and Good Times.
The public meeting held on December 3 was advertised in the Santa Cruz Sentinel and
advertised on the SCPL social media channels.

All DLAC meetings included time for comments from the public. Each person who desired to
address the committee was accommodated during the public comment period. Meetings were
extended to allow for additional public input, so that every person was heard. Over the
seven-month period, 76 public comments were made at DLAC meetings from 38 unique
individuals. In addition, 210 email messages were reviewed by the DLAC members. 92 people
attended the community meeting on December 3.

Three themes recurred during the above public process. people spoke and emailed
about their opposition to a new parking garage being built downtown and including the library
as part of this project. Secondly, people desired to preserve the existing library and the
current traditional services. Thirdly, people spoke on behalf of keeping a space in the
Downtown Branch Library dedicated to genealogy and local history.

The DLAC also surveyed the community about their vision for the Downtown Branch Library
and potential features the library may contain. The survey was accessible in print at the
Downtown Branch Library as well as online from the website. Additionally, committee
members and library staff distributed paper surveys in twelve locations downtown. The
survey elicited 2,273 participants, 96% of whom consider themselves Santa Cruz Public Library
users. The large response rate far surpassed our goals.

The survey elucidated the following:

- Comments proliferated regarding concerns about safety, security, and cleanliness in
and around the library environs. Roughly one?third of the comments were about
unhoused people, safety concerns, drug users, and/or the unacceptable state of the
bathrooms.

Final Edit: February 13, 2018

 

 

. Overwhelmingly, respondents requested priority for computers, WiFi and printing
space; quiet space; and a dedicated children?s room. This was reinforced in the open-
ended comments.

. Over half of respondents rated dedicated library parking ?very important. 
Eighty-eight people did not want the library located in a shared facility with a parking
garage.

- About half the reSpondents did not prioritize a cafe, and a third did not prioritize the
genealogical research center.

The Committee also conducted three focus groups: in the Beach Flats Community Center, at
the Boys Girls Club, and at a meeting with homeschooling teenagers. The findings of the
survey and focus groups influenced the building program and are attached as Appendix A.

The Building Program
An assessment of the existing library that was completed by Noll Tam found:

. Non-compliance with ADA

0 Operational failures of HVAC, plumbing, electrical systems, and elevator

. Expansion of the footprint of the building to be limited by seismic code requirements
. Poor lighting, ventilation, and wiring and cabling for technological use

0 Inefficient work spaces/delivery, poorly placed book drops, and poor sight lines

. Inadequate seating, bathrooms, electrical plugs, study spaces, and programming
spaces

. Small, worn, and isolated children?s space and no teen space
- Cluttered entry

. Poor ratio of public to back-of?house spaces

. Asbestos

. Dated interior

The DLAC used two days? worth of interviews with staff and key stakeholders; the findings of
the survey of over 2,200 community members; and the results of the focus groups to develop
a Library Building Program (See Appendix B).

The building program suggests a library of 44,000 - 47,000 square feet. The building program:

. Increases a dedicated children?s space by 2,000 square feet, including a children?s
program space (6,000 total square feet)

. Adds a teen room (1,300 square feet)

. Maintains the current collections size

10
Final Edit: February 13, 2018

 

 

 

 

. Provides abundant comfortable seating (from 189 to 263 spots)

0 Creates a 2,000 square foot, dividable programming room (increasing capacity from 88
to 125 seats)

a Adds 8 small group study rooms

. Includes 69 public computer stations

. Maintains a joint genealogy/local history area
. Incorporates two?dimensional art

. Moves out system-wide administrative spaces and incorporates all Downtown Branch
Library staff

. Brings building infrastructure to code, including ADA disability and green building
standards

Other design considerations are outlined in Appendix B. A building program for the
administrative functions of the library system was created. Because the cost of construction
greatly exceeded available resources in all scenarios, no consideration was given to
consolidating system administration into the project (Appendix C).

Siting

The Downtown Library Advisory Committee engaged in an exercise and discussion on the
preferred qualities a site for the downtown library would possess. These qualities include the
following:

- Accessible (with available public transit, walkable, bike friendly, and with parking)
. Location (visible, with vistas, and with density)

. Connectivity (to the civic regions, culture, and commercial district)

Construction Options

This section summarizes each of the four construction options for the downtown Santa Cruz
library discussed during the DLAC meetings. None of the options comes in under the
$23,000,000 slated for the downtown library by Measure S. Each option requires additional
funding that could include fundraising, partnership with private sector, and/or reduced scope
to bridge the shortfall.

The programming goals and service needs for the Downtown Branch Library were determined
by DLAC members, library staff, with input from community members who attended the DLAC
meetings, and the public survey. The design goals for the library were determined by the
services and desired physical features of the library. Each of the cost estimates in this
document is a combination of construction expenses and service needs.

The architectural firm of Noll Et Tarn, with specialized expertise in remodeling, renovating,
and new construction of public libraries, priced the options based on their knowledge of
library construction, taking into account the design features prioritized by DLAC after the
survey. The DLAC has confidence in the integrity of their estimates.

The Measuring Measure 5 website at measure 5/ provides
background on the library project. Additional documents including the detailed cost estimates
from Noll Et Tam are available on this website at

s/branch/7/documents/.

Option A: Partial Renovation of Existing Library

Option A is a proposed partial renovation of the existing downtown library building that is
capped as close as possible to the 523,000,000 funding provided by Measure for the
downtown library.

Cost and Timing
. Estimated budget: $24,620,958 - Over budget by $1,620,958

. Lowest initial construction cost but the greatest future operating expenses
. Shortest time period of 124 weeks with construction beginning April 2019

. Budget includes costs incurred by temporary relocation of collection and equipment;
some patron interruption

Design and Services
. Addresses accessibility and seismic code compliance and remodels 36,000 s.f.

0 Does not resolve many infrastructure problems
. Remediation of roof problems not included in this estimate

. Upgrades existing ventilation system but does not replace it with modern HVAC or
provide air conditioning

. Works around structural issues rather than designs for the future (For example, power
needs would be addressed with wiring in floor-to-ceiling columns, rather than in-floor
wiring)

12
Final Edit: February 13, 2018

 

 

 

 

. More costly to operate due to workarounds of structural limitations rather than
replacement of systems

. Does not replace or increase size of existing windows (single-pane glass)

. Retains current location

0 Maintains integrity of Civic Complex (City Hall Civic Center Library area)

Reuses the current building

. Provides adjacent parking (existing surface lot)

- Accessible to public transit

- Does not provide the recommended 44,000 s.f. for programmatic needs

. 8,000 s.f. of existing library not part of the remodel and unavailable for public use
. 20% smaller than the other options

Smaller size prevents the library from meeting program goals including teen space,
meeting rooms, study/ tutoring spaces, and expanded computing without trade offs

Security
0 Does not fully address desire for increased security (consequence of preserving
existing architectural footprint)

. Building exterior essentially untouched
. Main entrance not redesigned to decrease loitering or improve traffic flow

. Hidden spaces and obscured sightlines caused by stairwell and power drops in columns
are not mitigated

Sightlines could be improved by position and size of stacks and location of help desk

Option B: New Mixed-Use Construction

Option is a new mixed-use construction project on the site of the existing Cedar Street
surface lot behind the Logos building. This multi-story structure would be lower than the
buildings on Pacific Avenue and would house both the library, a parking garage, and possibly
affordable housing or office space. The needs of both the Farmer?s Market and the Antique
Faire are addressed in this option.

Cost and Timing
. Estimated budget: $26,674,381 - Over budget by $3,674,381

. This option provides the greatest number of desired program and design features for
the amount of library funds invested

. Exterior construction costs come from Parking Authority budget; library dollars spent
on services and interior design

13
Final Edit: February 13, 2018

 

 

. Requires a relationship with the Parking Authority; does not give library full control of
design

. The project would take 188 weeks with construction beginning March 2020
. There are no additional costs for temporary relocation and little disruption of services

Design and Services
0 Solves infrastructure problems associated with the current building

. Does not retain current location of library

- Removes the library from the existing Civic Complex (City Hall Civic Center Library
area)

. Provides an additional asset for the city
. Provides adjacent parking (new garage on existing surface lot)
. Proximity to public transit

. Provides the recommended 44,000 s.f. and meets all library program goals including
teen space, meeting rooms, study! tutoring spaces, genealogy and local history, and
expanded computing

. Provides expanded design opportunities

0 Shared construction costs allow possibility of double-pane windows and additional
natural light

. Design constrained by a multi-use space (library and parking garage)
. Does not require increasing the number of existing parking spaces

. Does not require expanding the number of parking lots; the proposed Cedar St. site is
an existing surface parking lot

0 Will result in the loss of (non-heritage) trees currently located in the existing surface
lot

. Relocates the Farmer?s Market and Antique Faire to nearby downtown areas

Security
. Fully addresses desire for increased security by allowing for purposeful architectural
improvements that minimize loitering and improve traffic flow while eliminating
hidden spaces and obscured sightlines caused by stairwell and columns in the existing
library.

Option C: Full Renovation of Existing Library

Option renovates the existing downtown library building as much as possible while
preserving the architectural footprint. It allows for reuse of the existing building and redesign
of the interior by demolition of non-load bearing walls; construction and renovation are
limited to prevent affecting the structural integrity and triggering seismic code retrofit.

Design and Services
- Solves infrastructure problems associated with the current building

. Retains current location

. Maintains integrity of Civic Complex (City Hall Civic Center Library area)
- Reuses the current building

. Provides adjacent parking (existing surface lot)

. Accessible to public transit

0 Provides the recommended 44,000 s.f. and meets all library program goals including
teen space, meeting rooms, study/tutoring spaces, genealogy local history, and
expanded computing

. Provides expanded design opportunities

0 Limited by footprint of the existing building due to seismic code regulations
0 Allows possibility of double-pane windows and skylights

. Window size and exterior must be retained due to seismic concerns

Security
. Partially addresses desire for increased security (limited by preserving existing
architectural footprint)

- Enables some external security improvements

. Although building footprint is preserved, entrance can be reoriented to west facing
side to discourage loitering

. Enables some internal security improvements
. Sightlines improved by position and size of stacks and location of help desk

. Hidden spaces and obscured sightlines caused by stairwell and power drops in columns
are not fully mitigated

Option D: New Construction on Existing Library Lot

Option reuses the existing lot of the downtown library, but not the building itself. It
attempts to maintain the integrity of the existing Civic Complex (City Hall Civic Center 
Library area) while meeting all the desired program goals and design features.

. Closure for remodel results in interruption of services

. Provides expanded design opportunities

. Not limited by footprint of the existing building

. Allows possibility of double-pane windows and skylights

. Incurs temporary relocation costs and disruption of services

- The branch would need to be closed for the duration of the renovation and the
collection moved

. Some Downtown Branch resources would still be available for checkout at other
branches

Security
. Fully addresses desire for increased security by allowing for purposeful architectural
improvements that minimize loitering and improve traffic flow while eliminating
hidden spaces and obscured sightlines caused by stairwell and columns in the existing
library.

replace failing roofs, outdated bathrooms, electrical systems/ structurally
damaged facilities; support growing use by children, seniors, veterans and
others; expand access to modern technology; and construct/ expand
facilities where necessary; shall Santa Cruz Libraries Facilities Financing
Authority issue $67,000,000 in bonds for Santa Cruz Libraries Facilities
Financing Authority Community Facilities District No. 2016-1; levy a special
tax annually on parcels within the Community Facilities District; establish
an initial apprOpriations limit; and assure mandatory accountability.

Two new construction projects have been designed for the Felton and Capitola Branch
Libraries.

How do the recommendations align with the SCPL Facilities Master Plan (2014-
2023)?

endorsement of Options and secondarily, Option C, aligns with the conclusion of the
SCPL Facilities Master Plan 2014-2023. The FMP ?strongly recommends extensive renovation or
full replacement. Major renovation would replace most of the 45-year-old-building?s aging
systems, upgrade interior (and possibly exterior finishes), and upgrade the building to meet
current codes; the project could also include major reorganization of the interior to create
new spaces, enhance operational efficiency, and improve customer 
replacement would provide the opportunity to maximize energy efficiency, minimize the
environmental footprint, and enhance downtown urban development" (42).

What is the status of the current library?s roof?

The Facilities Master Plan notes that the elevator and the roof will both be due for
replacement during the next ten years.

The costs of these proposals seem unrealistically high. Are they correct?

They are consistent with the Group 4 analysis done in December 2016 and are consistent with
the cost associated with the Capitola and Felton Branch Library projects. The architects who
advised the DLAC of the costs are experienced with building similar projects in the Greater
Bay Area Region. The DLAC has confidence in their estimates.

What tenants would the new mixed-use site contain?
The City Council will determine the uses of a new site.
How would the old library be reused?

The City of Santa Cruz owns the current Downtown Branch Library. The City Council would
determine its reuse.

What happens next?

The City Council is expected to hear this report in late March or early April. They will
consider this report along with information on affordable housing, parking and the Farmers?

Market. They will make the recommendation as to whether to move forward with a mixed-use
construction.

Where can I get copies of documents referred to in this report?

Documents related to this process have been posted on the website on the Measure 5

Appendix A: Survey Findings
Review of Community Input: Phase One, Features

Purpose

The DLAC Communications Subcommittee, comprised of Martin Gomez, Yolanda
Henry, and Rena Dubin, was created to facilitate community input about the vision
for the new Downtown Branch Library and the site options. The Phase One goal of the
committee was to gather opinions on potential key features. The Subcommittee
wanted the DLAC to have the opportunity to incorporate these findings when the
Committee deliberates on recommendations for square footage requirements and
general features for the Downtown Branch. (The Phase Two goal will be to gather
information regarding specific site options, with a report due December 1, 2017.)

Process

Because a thorough survey was administered to the community as part of the Library
Strategic Plan less than a year ago, in September through November of 2016, the
Subcommittee could use the raw data as a foundation.

For Phase One, the Subcommittee decided to try a variety of ways to reach the
public. We surveyed the community about the features of the potential Downtown
Branch. We conducted two focus groups, one for youth and one for Latinos to build on
the Library Strategic Plan findings. We also put up butcher paper in the Downtown
Branch asking the question, ?What features would you like to see in the new library??
and invited people to write their responses on the banner. We reached out to key
stakeholders in the community and are in the process of organizing a tour of the
Downtown Branch Library and Los Gatos Public Library.

The Survey Process

Because residents county-wide use the Downtown Branch, according to the Library
Strategic Plan, we thought it was important the county could access the survey from
the Santa Cruz Public Library?s website. An invitation to complete the survey popped
up when people visited the home page. The survey link was also accessible on the
web, which was shared via email and social media. Paper surveys were available to
Downtown Branch users in the library, and participation was encouraged by library
staff. Incarcerated individuals had the Opportunity to participate at the county?s
Roundtree facility during the library?s People and Stories program, and the surveys
were collected from unhoused individuals attending the library?s Working Together
program.

In an effort to reach a cross-section of the community, committee members, along
with library staff, distributed paper surveys in a total of 12 locations in Downtown
Santa Cruz between August 24th and September 13th. Locations included the
Wednesday Farmers? Market, Spanish Storytime at Abbott Square, the Metro Bus
Station, and myriad places around Pacific Avenue like Walnut Avenue Caf?, Pour, and
O?Neill Surf Shop. We tried to capture a variety of people and lifestyles, so not only
did we vary our locations, but we surveyed during diverse times of the day and week.

Surveys were available in Spanish and English.

The survey consisted of four questions: 1) ?How important are the following features
in the new Downtown Branch Library?? followed by fifteen features accompanied by 1
- 3 scale where 1 not at all important, 2 somewhat important, and 3 very
important (2) Do you use the Santa Cruz Public Libraries? (3) Optional: Please circle
your age and (4) Are there any other features you would like to see in the building?

Over twenty-two hundred people completed the survey!

The Subcommittee feels that the large response rate and the diverse collection
strategies represent an important window into the opinions of the community.

222 Mentions of homeless or feeling unsafe

--Respondents reported that the behavior of the people hanging out in front of the library
made them feel unsafe. Some reSpondents were not as forgiving, using derogatory remarks

rooms for them. Others suggested providing onsite social services.

 

148 Bathrooms -- more stalls, larger, cleaner, and/ or safer

--Some respondents offered detailed descriptions of horrific conditions in the bathrooms,
including feces on the walls, drug use, and people bathing. Thirty-nine respondents blamed
the homeless for the bathroom conditions.

Subcommittee Survey Summary

The following trends can be gleaned about the respondent?s desires in the Downtown Branch
Library. These findings will be used as the DLAC deliberates priorities and questions about
square footage.

The survey elicited 2,273 participants, 96% of which consider themselves Santa Cruz
Public Library users.

. Overwhelmingly, respondents requested priority for computers, WiFi and printing
space; quiet space; and a dedicated children?s room. This was reinforced in the open-
ended comments.

0 Over half of respondents rated dedicated library parking ?very important. 

. About half the respondents did not prioritize a cafe, and a third did not prioritize the
genealogical research center.

25
Final Edit: February 13, 2018

 

 

- Over half of the respondents wrote comments in the open-ended section.
Comments proliferated regarding concerns about safety, security, and cleanliness in
and around the library environs.

. Respondents would appreciate a green building with natural light and windows,
comfortable seating, air conditioning and ventilation.

0 Although the survey did not request feedback on a potential move to a shared parking
garage location, 88 people wrote opinions against this idea.

The Focus Group Process
Two focus groups were conducted by committee members: one at the Beach Flats
Community Center, and one at the downtown Boys Girls Club.

On August 22?, five parents attended the bilingual (Spanish and English) focus group
at the Beach Flats, including four Latinas and one female African-American. Three
Community Center staff also participated, two males and one female, all three
Latinos.

On September committee members facilitated a focus group with fifteen teens
at the Boys and Girls Club, five males and 10 females, aged 12 18. The teens attend
Mission Hill Middle School, Branciforte Middle School, and Santa Cruz High School.

The focus group demographics:

21 homeschooling teens, ranging from 13 - 18
All were ?library users?

All had visited the Downtown Branch

We first talked about the current Downtown Branch Library.

The first comment was that it felt ?unsanitary.? Other comments relating to homeless issues,
safety, and security included:

?Shady? exterior, but better inside
?Creepy dudes have tried to talk to me?
?Not a place to hang out"

Lots of ?homeless people?

28

Final Edit: February 13, 2018

 

 

 

 

. Interesting ?social interactions?
0 Theft on the bike racks outside

One student mentioned that he noticed there was great staff that helped the homeless, and
he appreciated that the homeless could get services here.

Some teens also mentioned loving the staff, the programs like the poetry programs and
reading to dogs. They also mentioned the WiFi, past artwork displays in the children?s room,
and that they have studied upstairs in the children?s room. They mentioned they appreciated
the natural light upstairs. They had mixed reviews on the collection.

We then looked at some examples of ?Zist century? and ?forward thinking? libraries, and the
possibilities for downtown. Some comments included being excited about the community
space, possibilities of the library serving as a partial museum role, appreciating the access to
technology, a place to study and focus, but also be with other people. Some mentioned the
possibilities of an event space, particularly teen events, and how fun that would be. Others
wanted to be sure there would always be print books.

One teen mentioned the possibility of combining the library with meals, housing, and
homeless services.

We then talked about the various options and configurations of relocating or rebuilding. There
was no consensus.

. Comments regarding the $37 million remodel option:
- Several mentioned this as the ?perfect solution? in an ?ideal world."

. Reasons included liking the current library?s location and a reluctance to tear down a
building.

a The ?debts are worrisome? with this option.

. It is a ?challenge to find more funds?

. The ?outside is fine; it is the inside that is the problem.?
Comments about the parking garage Option:

. One teen mentioned environmental concerns

. However, most were more concerned about the potential ugliness of the parking
garage building, as well as the ?lack of natural light.? One also was concerned about
the noisiness of being underneath a parking garage. In general, it was hard to envision
how the exhaust smells, starkness, lack of natural light, and car noise could coexist
with a library.

. One teen thought the adjacent additional parking would be beneficial generally and
would particularly be helpful to library employees and patrons.

29
Final Edit: February 13, 2018

 

 

Other comments included:

- Anything was better than nothing, even the million remodel at the existing

location

0 Perhaps we could use the $23 million specifically to fix up the existing library, and
then ask the voters for more funding to remodel in the future to do it correctly.

January 19, 2018 ARCHITECTS

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS - SANTA CRUZ DOWNTOWN LIBRARY STUDY

Acoustics

The Downtown Branch Library tends to be noisy. Normal conversations can carry from one end of
the building to the other. While recognizing that some noise and activity is inevitable, it will be
important to try to establish non-overlapping zones for the noisiest and the quietest areas. General
sound-dampening features are desirable throughout the building, but some areas should have a
special emphasis on noise control. Mechanical sounds should be minimized.

Aesthetics

The library user should experience vistas both inside and outside. The interior should provide a
series of rooms and overlooks; walking through the building should provide pleasant surprises like
cozy reading nooks and interior ?porches? that inspire library visitors to linger. Views should
embrace the outdoors, bringing the landscape into the building. The interior should feel warm and
comfortable, with an interesting variety of seating, soothing light, and user-friendly furniture.

Art

Ideally, the building itself will be art, and certain aspects of the building, such as windows and
specialty flooring, might constitute artistic elements. Art should be plentiful, tasteful and make
sense in the context. It would be good to have elements that are playful and fun.

Flexibility

In order to be able to adapt as service patterns or library needs change, space should be mostly
open and planned with the standard library shelving module of three feet in mind. Fixed elements
should be grouped as much as possible, and interior walls kept to a minimum. Where interior walls
are required, they should not be weight'bearing. There should be as few columns as possible. and
some areas, such as the circulation area, the lobby, and the meeting room, will need to be column-
free. Where columns are required, they should be as unobtrusive as possible, or used as a design
element.

Floors

Because almost any area might eventually contain parts of the collection, floors must be designed
to carry the weight this entails, a live load of 150 pounds per square foot. Carpet tiles are the
preferred carpet option.

729 Heinz Avenue #7 Berkeley CA 94710 510-542-2200 

 

 

Furniture

Furniture for the building should be consistent with the SCPL design standard created in 2015
focusing on maintenance sustainability, ease of cleaning and creation of a consistent standard of
quality across the system.

Future Costs

The design should strive to minimize future operating costs. both for maintenance and for
operations. Issues to be considered are the minimum number of staff required to operate the
building, ease of general maintenance, energy efficiency, and quality, durability, and longevity of
the materials used.

Heating/Cooling

HVAC should operate with high efficiency and low noise. It will be important to make sure that the
system supports separate zones and promotes clean. dehumidified, mold-free air. HVAC is
controlled centrally. Exterior units should be protected and screened from public view.

Lighting

Buildings should rely upon as much natural light as possible. Lighting needs to be bright enough
for reading and working, but without glare, especially on computer screens. Where glare from
sunlight is an issue, it will need to be addressed. Light levels need to be sufficient for easily
carrying out the functions of each area. Library shelving is high and dense, and it can be difficult for
light to penetrate to the levels needed. Small spine labels need to be easily readable in stack areas.
Lighting should be designed to work appropriately even if stacks and furniture are rearranged.
Study workstations and reader! lounge seating will require task lighting to reach needed light
levels. Staff workstations will have their own unique lighting needs.

General lighting switches should be located in the circulation workroom, or at a service desk. There
should be no switches in public areas except on task lighting. Night and emergency lighting should
be switched separately.

Navigation

Clear sightlines and transparent spaces will greatly increase the usability and safety of the building.
Open sightlines will help orient users to where they want to go and enable intuitive wayfinding.
Strategies such as using lower shelving or glass partitions should be used to help eliminate hidden
or blind areas of the building.

Retailing

Almost every public area of the building should allow some kind of retail display.

This will be especially important in featuring the collection. but it will also be essential to have neat
and attractive ways to display, post, or house brochures, announcements, and posters. Collection

Noll Tarn Architects January 19, 2018 SCPL Downtown Library Study

 

 

 

 

display fixtures should allow for face-out display of materials, and should be easily reached for
refilling.

Safety

Within the library space, it will be important to have clear lines of sight from the service desks to
most areas of the library. Security cameras should be used to improve control of the facility. High
resolution cameras should record at entry and exits.

Shelving

Standard SCPL shelving is SafeStak Library Bureau Steel Shelving (or equal) in 340 Almond
Commercial powder coated metal and needs to be seismically reinforced. The program assumes a
collection size of 150,000 items.

Free-standing, double-faced shelving units.

There should be a mixture of low and high shelving units. Higher shelving unit should be located in
areas where they do not block sightlines or natural light.

Shelving layout should allow a logical arrangement of materials in numerical or alphabetical order.
Breaks in shelving should be between collections, or in other logical spots.

Service Delivery

SCPL creates ease of us by providing a single service point for most transactions. The Library
relies on a supported self-service model where patrons may place/ pick up holds, check in/check out
materials and pay fines without the assistance of staff.

Signage
Exterior and interior signage should follow the SCPL sign standards created in 2015 utilizing a
consistent naming convention across the system.

Windows

Windows should provide ample natural light. It should be possible to enjoy the exterior view when
seated in a lounge area. Windows with potential for glare should be equipped with easily-operable
sunshades.

Our first task was to establish the construction budget target, working backwards from the total project cost of $27

Even with the reduction in square footage, the $18 million target construction budget is a challenge. Subsequently,

by Mack5, we established a required cost per square foot range of $650-1,050 to renovate the facility. At approximately

17f)?ASSESSMENT SUMMARY
Architectural Assessment Summary
Jayson Architecture completed a thorough assessment of the existing library building. In general, the
architectural elements of the building are not salvageable and are due for replacement.
The exterior of the building demonstrated deterioration typical for a 50-year-old building in relatively close
proximity to the ocean. The roof is aged and shows signs of leaking and water damage and is overdue for reroofing. The redwood facade is worn, and the windows do not meet current code mandated energy performance
requirements. While the concrete block walls at the perimeter are in acceptable condition, they are opaque and
block daylight, resulting in a dark interior. Inside the building, surface finishes, such as carpet, wood veneer, tile,
and acoustic ceilings, among other finishes, are worn and well beyond their useful life. The two elevators are
unreliable and are prone to unexpected maintenance issues.
As established in the testing report prepared for the City in 1999 by Fowler Associates, asbestos is prevalent
throughout the building. Friable ACMs (Asbestos Containing Materials) are present in the sprayed-on
fireproofing protecting the steel building structure, joint compound and skimcoat on all original sheetrock walls,
linoleum flooring and adhesive through the building, and insulation on HVAC pipe fittings. Non-friable ACMs are
present in various floor tile systems, interior and exterior wall panel finishes, and roof patching compound. The
report did not test for lead and given the age of the building we recommend this testing be completed if the City
elects to move forward with this project.
Our assessment also identified multiple code compliance deficiencies. The building is only partially sprinklered,
primarily at the main entry lobby. Building code requires complete sprinkler coverage for a library facility,
and the current condition is a potential life safety hazard. Additionally, while a complete CASp inspection was
not performed as a part of our scope, it was apparent there are accessibility compliance issues in all areas
of the library. These include an accessible path of travel to the main entry of the building, restroom fixture
and accessory mounting heights, turning areas, reach ranges, and other obstacles. These types of issues are
prevalent in facilities constructed before the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was passed into law in 1990.
If the facility is to remain unrenovated we recommend a full CASp compliance report be performed to identify
the full scope of non-compliance and potential liability.
Based on this assessment, Jayson Architecture recommends replacing or updating most architectural features on
this building, which are overwhelmingly beyond their useful life.

 Civil Engineering Assessment Summary
BKF Engineers assessed the existing site and utilities, and made a number of determinations regarding the reuse of this
existing location for a renovated facility.
The curb and sidewalk improvements completed in 1997 are showing signs of deterioration and are in need of repair.
The deteriorating sidewalks and ramps do not comply with current accessibility standards, and therefore replacement is
recommended. The stormwater system connecting the building to the sanitary sewer is adequate, however the on site
bio-retention areas do not comply with current codes. In addition, the existing backflow preventers on sprinkler and
domestic water lines are non-compliant and will need to be brought up to code as a part of any work done. Utility service
sizing is generally adequate, and will be sufficient to serve a renovated building. Gas, Water & Electrical Service will not
need to be updated as a part of this project.
BKF’s assessment shows that while the utility services to the building are generally acceptable, there are a number of site
improvements that need to be addressed in order to bring this building in line with current codes and standards.

Structural Assessment Summary
BASE Design Inc. evaluated the structure of the existing library through an on site visit and extensive review of the as built
drawings. Their findings show that while the building has deficiencies, there are significant elements of the structural

system that can be reused.
The greatest deficiency of the existing structure is the seismic system, which resists lateral forces in the event of
an earthquake. The one-story sections of the building at the perimeter are seismically inadequate, and during an
earthquake, could create forces which act on the two-story portion of the building, unbalancing it.
This two-story portion of the building also lacks lateral structure; however, the existing steel is adequate to support
gravity loads. The existing footings are in good shape, and they are large enough to support the gravity loads of the
existing building. While the building’s seismic system will need to be updated, the gravity load bearing elements can be
recommended for future use.

Mechanical/Plumbing Assessment Summary
Alter Consulting Engineers evaluated the mechanical and plumbing systems of the existing building through on-site
assessment and thorough examination of the existing building plans. They found the mechanical and plumbing systems
to be severely outdated and unable to fulfill their basic functions.
The existing primary mechanical system provides only heating – no cooling, which results in very hot temperatures
during the summer months, potentially creating an unsafe environment and preventing the building from being
occupied. These high temperatures can be so extreme they result in the need to close the library. Server equipment,

5

I. ASSESSMENT SUMMARY

VOLUME II

 which can only operate within a fixed temperature range, is cooled with a dedicated unit which serves a single zone and
has no capacity for expansion. A similar dedicated unit cools the community meeting room. These units provide cooling
to individual areas only and are completely inflexible for expansion.
The primary mechanical system is also extremely outdated, and uses obsolete pneumatic controls. The system is by a
defunct manufacturer, and replacement parts are no longer available for numerous components, many of which are
badly in need of repair. Dampers for outside air are well beyond their useful life, and prone to failure. Several rooftop
exhaust fans are completely non-operational.
The plumbing systems, like the HVAC system, are operating past their expected useful service life, and are recommended
to be replaced. Major areas of concern include a sprinkler system that only serves a portion of the building, plumbing
fixtures which do not comply with current water conservation codes regarding flow rate, and outdated, energy inefficient
water heaters.
The mechanical system is outdated and nearly impossible to repair, and the plumbing systems have reached the end of
their useful life and are not up to current code. Full replacement of both systems is recommended.

Electrical Assessment Summary
Outdated and worn air handling system

Obsolete mechanical and plumbing distribution systems

RIJA Electrical Engineers, working as a consultant of Jayson Architecture, did a complete assessment of the existing
building’s electrical systems. As was found to be the case with the mechanical system, the existing electrical system is
outdated and well beyond its useful life.
The electrical distribution equipment was manufactured by a company that has gone out of business, making
replacement parts difficult to find. This distribution system is outdated and failing, and inadequate for support of
upgraded systems. Lighting types are varied, inconsistent, and the controls are not compliant with current standards and
codes.
Power service is adequate for future use, provided there are no additional loads on the system in the form of an electric
mechanical system or photovoltaic panels. This service will be acceptable for the proposed renovation but would be
unable to support potential sustainability driven upgrades in the future.
The existing building’s distribution and lighting systems are beyond their useful life, and replacement is recommended.
While the primary electrical service may be adequate for a simple renovation, it is not “future-proofed” and will not be
sufficient to support either an electric mechanical system or photovoltaic panels.

17f)?CONCEPTUAL DESIGN SUMMARY
Our conceptual design approach was based on an analysis of several factors. First, we evaluated the project site,
including the relationship to the adjacent City Hall, the relative level of activity on each street, solar exposure,
existing mature street trees, and parking. We also looked at the existing Library’s program and space allocation,
and then compared this to the Downtown Library Advisory Committee’s (DLAC) program for a 47,000 square
foot library prepared in 2017. These programs were also analyzed through the lens of other recently constructed
Bay Area libraries. With this as a foundation for our design process, we engaged in a series of internal workshops
with the City and the Library to determine the best way to allocate program within the reduced 32,000 square
foot building. We identified two areas of the program that were to be increased from the existing program, the
Children’s Area and the Public Meeting Rooms. Other areas of the program were reduced from current levels,
such as the Staff Area, and the Adult Collections.
Due to budgetary limitations, as described in the Assessment Summary Section I of the report, we have
proposed the demolition of the one-story sections of the building. While regrettably reducing square footage,
this removal does provide several opportunities. First, the elimination of these portions of the building frees
up space on the site for several outdoor areas such as a Children’s Garden, Community Patio, and Staff Patio. In
addition, it allows for the merging of the two adjacent parking lots to the east. Lastly, this approach allows for
the addition of large floor to ceiling windows on the ground floor, opening up the library to the community.
The form of the two-story structure is largely kept unchanged, however we have proposed new a cement plaster
finish on the exterior, as well as new windows and entry canopies. Once inside the library, the layout is designed
to maximize the available square footage. Spaces are arranged in efficient and economical ways, with large open
spaces comprising a majority of both floors.
As described in detail in the Budget Section V, we have proposed a series of 14 alternates to keep the base
project in line with the $18 million construction budget target. These alternates generally do not affect the core
functionality of the library however, they do improve quality and usability significantly.
The specifics of the proposed conceptual design are outlined in detail in this section of the report.

BASE DESIGN
View from City Hall
The west elevation highlights a number of
improvements made to the existing building, site,
and facade. Most notably, the removal of the onestory sections of the building at the perimeter of
the library allow for floor to ceiling glass located at
the Church & Center Street corner, which provides
a much more welcoming appearance than the
current closed off opaque facade of solid concrete
masonry. A new plaza draws people into to the
main entry, which is framed by a new canopy
finished in natural wood. The building is painted
white to reflect the City Hall across the street. While
the improvements are significant and dramatic,
the limited budget target in the base design does
limit the inclusion of landscaping and new finishes,
leaving the site and building feeling a little bare and
underdeveloped.

The west elevation is improved dramatically with
the addition of the alternates, described in detail
in Section V, Budget. The sloped concrete tile
roof at the perimeter is replaced with a metal roof
and new gutters, and the rainwater leaders are
moved inside the walls of the building. A natural
wood soffit brings some warmth to the underside
of the roof. The painted concrete at the secondfloor walls is replaced with new white cement
plaster, creating a more refined facade with a
unified finish on both stories of the exterior walls.
The 2nd floor windows are replaced with new
operable windows without intermediate mullions,
allowing for more daylight, better air circulation,

building and softens its relationship to the ground
plane. The natural wood canopy at the 1st floor
and the matching natural wood eave at the 2nd
floor creates two distinct lines of warm materiality
that draws the eye down to the entry. The
smooth cement plaster facade creates a uniform
appearance between 1st and 2nd floor, creating the

Site Improvements
The site is currently developed with an existing two story building with surface parking lots and associated walkways and
landscaping. The site is generally flat, and slopes gently from north to south at an approximately 1% slope.
Street curb and sidewalk improvements were completed in 1997. The main entry to the existing building is off Church
Street with site stairs and walkways from the street sidewalk. Several site walkways appear to be out of conformance
with current accessibility standards. Additionally, street curb ramps at the intersections of Church and Center Streets, and

Site Improvements
Site grading design will focus on pedestrian and vehicular accessibility, safety, visual connections and ease of pedestrian
circulation and connectivity while conforming to existing grades and conforms.

•

Grading design for site accessibility will be in accordance with the requirements of the 2019 California Building Code
(CBC). The pedestrian accessible path of travel will be provided at a longitudinal slope of less than 5% without the
need for ramps and handrails to the extent practical, or at less than 8.33% with ramps and handrails.

•

Grading is required for areas where sections of the existing building are to be removed, ensuring positive drainage
away from the building.

•

The elevation of the existing parking area is approximately 12-inches lower than the proposed parking area. Grading
and repaving will be required connect the existing and the proposed parking areas.

Site hardscape improvements include but are not limited to new concrete sidewalk, curb & gutters, asphalt paving
and parking areas along Church Street and Locust Street. The existing curb, gutter and sidewalk along Center Street to
remain.

 Utility Improvements
Utility services shall be maintained and operational with minimal interruption during construction. The following are
utility improvements proposed for the project:

•
•
•

Rainwater leaders from the building roof to be reconnected to the existing site underground storm drain system
No new sanitary sewer service lateral connections are anticipated.
A new domestic water reduced pressure backflow preventer to be installed on the existing water service lateral
serving the existing building. The current backflow preventer is located inside the building.

•

A new 8-inch dedicated fire water service lateral connection to be provided for the building, connected to
the existing 8-inch water main in Church Street. A double check detector backflow preventer and fire department
connection to be provided per the California Fire Code and City of Santa Cruz Fire Department standards.

•

A new fire hydrant and fire service lateral connection to be provided, connected to the existing 8-inch water main in
Church Street.

•

Stormwater treatment measures such as bioretention areas, flow-through planters and vegetated areas to be
incorporated to treat and store stormwater runoff generated from new impervious surfaces in accordance with the
County’s stormwater management requirements.

•

It is anticipated the post-development stormwater peak flow rate will be comparable with the pre-project conditions.
If required and to limit the impact to the downstream existing storm drainage system, stormwater detention
measures in the form of oversized detention pipes or storage within bioretention areas will be provided to detain
the increase in post-development 10-year stormwater peak runoff from the project area and release the peak flow
through an orifice controlled outlet at a rate that is equal to the pre-project 10-year storm event flow level.

RENOVATION OF THE EXISTING LIBRARY

77

 According to the original construction documents, the Main Library Building was reportedly
constructed in 1966. The building is a two-story, steel and concrete hybrid structure,
approximately trapezoidal in plan. A one-story library services building, 36’-0” x 81’-0” rectangular
in plan, located on the north-east end of the main library building. The library services building is
connected to the Main Library Building. (Figure 1)

STRUCTURAL ASSESSMENT
SUMMARY
The purpose of this study is to conduct a renovation cost assessment study of the Santa Cruz Downtown Main Library.
This report provides a description of the building and the structural features essential to this study, the detailed criteria
and procedure employed, the computer model of the lateral force resisting system and the findings of this assessment.
The Main Library Building is a two-story, steel frame and concrete floor hybrid structure which was reportedly built 1966.
The roof framing system consists of metal deck supported by steel wide flange beams and columns. The second floor
consists of reinforced concrete one-way slab supported by steel wide flange beams/columns and reinforced concrete
masonry walls. Steel columns and walls are founded on shallow foundations. Lateral resistance is provided by cast-inplace concrete walls at the second floor and reinforced concrete masonry walls at the first floor.
Proposed renovations will include demolition of the low roof extensions around the main library building and demolition
of the library services building. By demolishing the low roof extension and perimeter shear walls, ground floor lateral
force resisting system will be eliminated. A new lateral system will be introduced at the ground floor.

The existing low roof structure serves as the horizontal force transfer element of the seismic force resisting system of the
building, delivering second floor lateral forces to the outside perimeter concrete masonry shear walls. By demolishing the
low roof extension and perimeter shear walls, ground floor lateral force resisting system will be eliminated. A new lateral
system will be required at the ground floor.
The second-floor level lateral forces are resisted by concrete shear walls. Several combinations of structural steel systems
were investigated. These include: braced frames, buckling-restrained braced frames and concrete shear walls. Based upon
prior experience and consensus of the design team, concrete shear wall system is preferred for both reasons of cost and
system compatibility.
Based up on our preliminary analysis, 16” thick reinforced concrete shear wall will be required for the first-floor lateral
system. The foundations for the new shear walls will be reinforced concrete grade beams. The foundation system will be
re-evaluated after the conclusion of geotechnical studies at the site. The existing stair openings will be infilled with metal
deck and concrete fill slab and new openings will be added for the relocated stair locations. New openings will be framed
for the new elevator shaft opening and new HSS guiderail support posts will be installed. The elevator will require a new
reinforced concrete pit.
There will be new roof top mechanical units. The existing roof framing will be strengthened to accommodate the new
roof top units. There will be new roof top popup structure to accommodate the proposed clerestory windows. the
proposed structure will be framed with steel HSS beams/columns and metal deck.

 MECHANICAL/PLUMBING ASSESSMENT
SUMMARY
Alter Consulting Engineers completed a site walk and field survey for the renovation or replacement of the HVAC and
plumbing systems serving the Santa Cruz Downtown Library.
The current HVAC system has a mix of original equipment from the 1960s construction date, as well as some replacement
parts of varying age. Specifically, equipment such as the central fans, ductwork, piping, and pneumatic controls systems
are operating far past their intended use. Nearly all other HVAC equipment is near or past it’s expected useful life,
meaning a replacement is recommended. AlterCE recommends a full replacement and modernization of the HVAC
components and distribution system. The new recommended HVAC system is a variable air volume with reheat system,
with digital controls. The existing HVAC system conditioning the server room, however, is a more recent install and should
be reused if the building is to be renovated.
The plumbing systems, like the HVAC system, are operating past their expected useful service life, and are recommended
to be replaced. Major items for replacement include water heaters, fire sprinkler system, and fixtures. It is recommended
to reconfigure the system to use electric point of use water heating. If any existing hot water piping is used, it should be

Note that most of the building has no active cooling. Building occupants have complained about lack of air movement
and overheating of spaces. Occupants actively try to address these issues by opening perimeter windows. It was noted on
the site walk that every perimeter window was opened.

 In general, the existing HVAC system has far exceeded its anticipated useful life. Equipment has been well maintained
or replaced, but most of the distribution system (supply fan, piping system, ducting systems) are original and will soon
require replacement.

EXISTING HVAC AND PLUMBING SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Air is supplied into the building by a custom built-up air handling unit. This air handling unit is constructed of several field
fabricated sections including modulating mixing damper section, pre and final filter section, and large capacity plenum
supply/return fan section. Exhaust air is drawn from the building through a high capacity plenum exhaust fan, located

in the room adjacent to the supply fan. There are no heating or cooling coils at the central air handling unit. Heating is
provided at the zone level.

Air is ducted to each regularly occupied space. The ductwork distribution system has been designed to create
independent temperature control zones. Unconditioned supply air is introduced to temperature control zones at a
constant flowrate, there are no variable volume boxes. Each control zone has been provided with a dedicate duct
mounted hydronic heat coils and associated wall mounted thermostat. The wall mounted thermostat is wired to a
modulating hydronic control valve. The control valve varies the rate of heating hot water supplied to the duct mounted
hydronic heating coils. The entire system is controlled with a pneumatic control system.
Heating hot water is generated by a central heating hot water system consisting of a primary-secondary distribution
system and central boiler. The central boiler and primary/secondary distribution pumps are collocated in the libraries

second floor mechanical room. The second-floor mechanical room also includes the building central gas-fired domestic
water heater. The domestic water heater has been provided with a domestic hot water return pump and associated
uninsulated piping system.

Central Air Handling Unit
The custom air handling unit (AHU) is field fabricated. The AHU occupies a dedicated custom air handling unit room.
Many of the components of the room are original parts. This equipment has far exceeded the anticipated useful life of a
custom air handling unit. Replacement is recommended.
The modulating dampers associated with outdoor air and return air mixing are constructed of original parts. The
components of these dampers have far exceeded their anticipated useful life. Prolonged exposure to corrosive coastal air
has eroded much of the metallic material used to construct the dampers and actuators.
The AHU’s high-volume plenum fans, used to supply and return air throughout the building, are original to when the
building was first constructed. The supply and return fans are sized for 50,000 CFM. The motors associated with these
plenum fans have been replaced at least once during the lifetime of the building. Due to the age of this equipment, some
components can likely never be replaced if damaged or worn out. The supply and return fans associated with the AHU
have far exceeded their anticipated useful life.

 the building. Each piece of equipment is dedicated to a space in the building. In the event of a major
interior renovation, all the existing roof equipment can likely be demolished because of their
dedicated nature.
Heating Hot Water System
The buildings heating hot water system consists of a primary/secondary piping distribution system and a central gas
fired water heater. The hydronic distribution system was originally installed in the 1960s when the building was first
constructed. Pumps associated with the primary/secondary system have been maintained and periodically replaced. The
gas fired boiler, which provides heat to the loops was most recently replaced in 1998. The gas fired boiler is a standard
efficiency of 80%, includes a dedicated flue exhaust system, and outputs 1,614 kBTUs of heat.

Rooftop Equipment
The roof of the building has various HVAC equipment installed intermittently throughout the life of the building. Each
piece of equipment is dedicated to a space in the building. In the event of a major interior renovation, all the existing roof
equipment can likely be demolished because of their dedicated nature.
General exhaust fans have been provided on the roof to serve restrooms and exhaust driven spaces. Please note, not all
of these fans are operating, some have been abandoned in place.

Gas Meter
The building is served by a high capacity rotary gas meter rated for 3000 CFH. This gas meter is located above grade and

Building Controls
The building has been automated by a pneumatic controls system. This system utilizes an air compressor and vacuum
piping system to start and stop equipment. This style of control system was popular before the invention of digital
controls. Pneumatic control systems have been phased out of buildings due to typical issues of reliability, noise, and
functionality. Any major renovation of the building’s HVAC system should include replacement of the pneumatic controls
system with a digital controls system.

Recommendations
The existing HVAC system has far exceeded its anticipated useful life. Renovation or replacement of the HVAC system
should be part of the owner’s evaluation criteria for whether to renovate or replace the downtown library.

 ELECTRICAL ASSESSMENT
SUMMARY
A site visit was performed September 4, 2019 during open hours to survey and evaluate the existing electrical systems for
adequacy and feasibility of re-use and/or needs for system upgrades for the planned renovation to the building.
The existing service size is 800Amp, 208/120V, 3phase, 4wire. Given the planned renovation program area of 30,000 gsf,
this existing service size is good for 9.6 watts/sqft. With this power density, an all-electric project will not be feasible. The
manufacturer for the electrical distribution equipment is by Westinghouse. They are no longer in business, and finding
replacement parts can be difficult. The electrical distribution equipment appears to be from the original construction.
While equipment appears to be maintained, the equipment is beyond manufacturers recommended life. For the building
renovation, we recommend complete replacement of the distribution system. The facility utilizes a variety of lamp types,
we recommend standardizing lamp types or utilize LED lighting to limit stock of various lamp types.

EXISTING CONDITIONS
Utility Service
Existing electrical service is 800Amps, 208/120V, 3phase, 4wire served from an exterior pad mount transformer located

Electrical Figure 1: Utility Transformer

within the property lines. Utility transformer asset tag number is T-78. Based on visual observation, we were not able to
determine kVA rating of transformer.

Building Distribution
The 800Amp switchboard is located indoors, and is fed from the utility transformer via underground conduits. Based
on as-built documentation, it appears there are two sets of 3 ½”C with 4#500 kcmil. Based on conductor size, two sets
of 500kcmil is adequate for 760Amps at 75degree C, or 860Amps at 90degree C. The condition of the conductor and
it’s insulation was not observed. The main switchboard serves various branch panels located throughout the building.
Feeder breakers are as follows:

•
•
•
•
•
•
•

Panel 1A-C – 40A/3P
FA Panel – 15A/2P
Range – XXA/XP
Coffee Room Sub Panel – 100A/3P
Elevator #1 – 100A/3P
Elevator #2 – 80A/3P
MCC – 175A/3P

 •
•

Branch panels do not have physical space for additional circuit breakers to be added.
Mechanical equipment located on the second floor are served from a motor control center. Based on discussion with

•
•

facility operations personnel, it is difficult to source replacement parts for the motor control center.

•

All building distribution equipment appears to be from original construction, and manufactured by Westinghouse,
A newer Panel was added to the distribution system to serve the telecommunications room, complete with rack
mounted UPS, servers, switches, etc.

Lighting and Lighting Control System
• Enclosed rooms such as offices and conference rooms are controlled via on-off toggle switches. A few rooms were
retrofitted with occupancy sensors.

•
•
•

Library stacks are manually controlled on-off via toggle switches. Library stacks are controlled via zones.
Emergency lighting via bug eyes and combo exit sign bug eye fixtures.
Lighting throughout is accomplished via fluorescent type fixtures. There is a mix of lamp types, F32T8, F28T5, FT55
biax, and F24T8

Fire Alarm System
• The existing fire alarm control panel is Silent Knight 5207, an area detection system with voice evacuation.
• System consists of manual pull stations, smoke detectors, heat detectors, flow switch, tamper switch and beam
detectors at the second level. Notification devices consist of strobes and speaker/strobes.

Low Voltage Systems
• There is an existing intercom and PA system that is not used, and no longer functioning
• A new telecommunication room was added, with dedicated panel and HVAC system. All connectivity originates from
this room

•

Connectivity is via hard wire data drops and wifi

RECOMMENDATIONS
Utility Service
Due to budget constraints, the project will design for re-use of the existing service. The existing pad mount transformer
shall remain, and all systems downstream shall be replaced complete. The underground service into the building shall be
intercepted and extended to the new switchboard location. A concrete pull box shall be used to intercept and splice the
existing underground feeder.

Building Distribution
A new 800Amp switchboard shall be provided indoor in a dedicated electrical room. The maximum size PV system that
can be interconnected to an 800Amp switchboard on the load side is 45kW. The switchboard shall have feeder breakers
as follows:

lighting controls will be Wattstopper DLM or similar.

III. ENGINEERING NARRATIVES

52

RENOVATION OF THE EXISTING LIBRARY

89

 The addressable lighting control system will be controlled via software based controls, residing on a dedicated head-end

breaker selection will utilize molded case type; be rated for application in their intended enclosure; include solid state

server, which allows integration with the building energy management system via BACnet protocol. The lighting control

tripping with adjustable long time, instantaneous, short time, and ground fault. Additional spare branch feeder breakers

head-end will have capability of control and monitoring of any space excluding electrical and mechanical rooms in a

will be provided for future and spare capacity. Switchboard will be Eaton Cutler Hammer, Square D, GE, Siemens, or

cluster by area or zone and set schedules/presets. Each luminaire or group of luminaires will be controlled and monitored

approved equal

by individually addressable drivers and/or interface devices. Time schedules shall be defined in the BMS and shared
with the lighting control system. The primary method of controlling interior luminaires while conserving energy in the
building will be achieved through the use of occupancy sensors and manual override switches. These devices will be
provided in offices, library stacks, support spaces, and storage rooms. Occupancy sensors will be set to “manual on/auto
off” in offices and conference rooms; “auto on/auto off” for restrooms and support areas, “auto on/dim/auto off” for library
stacks and public areas. Enclosed stairs will also include occupancy sensor controls to reduce the lighting within the stair
(by a minimum of 50%) when it is not occupied. There will be no 24/7 emergency lighting. Emergency lighting will be
controlled with other lights. Occupancy sensors that control stairs and emergency egress lighting will be bypassed to
provide 100% illumination in the event of normal power failure. Additional photosensors will dim luminaires based on
available daylighting.
Astronomical time clock controls, occupancy sensors, and/or photosensors will be provided for exterior, site, and
landscape lighting applications via the lighting control system. Lighting will automatically turn on or off as appropriate
throughout the course of the day. Photosensors will allow dimming based on scheduled times, occupancy sensor control
overrides at night, and adjustment based on available daylight levels. Daylight harvesting will be designed and specified
to reduce energy where natural daylight occurs in sufficient levels. Spaces, receiving sufficient, natural sunlight from
glazing, will be equipped with a dimmable lighting system to automatically adjust the amount of electric light against
available and constantly fluctuating daylight. This continuously dimming system consists of photocells, daylight dimming
control modules, and dimmable 0-10VDC electronic drivers for each space.

Fire Alarm System
Provide a new, code compliant addressable Fire Alarm system with voice evacuation

Low Voltage Systems
One telecommunication room shall be required for the project. Horizontal backbone shall include cable tray within the
telecommunication room and exposed locations. J-hooks shall be used above drop ceilings and accessible/concealed
locations.

ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT

Panelboards
Panelboards shall have door-in-door construction with 42-poles, and copper bussing. Transient Voltage Surge
Suppressors shall be used on all panelboards feeding all IT rooms (IDF, MDF, Site Cores, etc). For pricing purposes,
208/120V panelboard bus work will be braced to withstand 22kAIC amperes RMS symmetrical.
Proposed: Square D, Eaton Cutler Hammer, or approved

Conduit and Wiring
Conductors will be copper, THHN or THWN-2, with PVC insulation; galvanized rigid steel (GRS) conduit in exterior or
exposed interior work up to eight feet above finished floor, and for work embedded in concrete; rigid nonmetallic
conduit (PVC) for all underground exterior work; electrical metallic tubing (EMT) for interior concealed work or above
eight feet exposed; flexible metal conduit (Greenfield) for interior work in short lengths or liquid tight flexible metal
conduit (Sealtight) wherever moisture may be present for the connection of recessed luminaires, motors, separate
building structures and any vibrating equipment. MC Cable shall be used in accessible, concealed locations such as
above drop ceilings. Where exposed and/or visible, rigid metallic conduits shall be used.

Photovoltaic System
There are a few options for interconnecting a future photovoltaic system to the existing electrical service.
A Load Side Tap includes interconnecting the PV system after, or downstream of the main circuit breaker/meter. In doing
so, the PV system size is limited to the existing electrical service which is 800Amp, 208/120 Volts, 3-phase, 4-wire. The
maximum size interconnection breaker is 150Amps, which equates to a 43.2kW maximum PV array size. As a rough order
of magnitude, we estimate this would offset approximately 10% to 20% of the Library's annual energy use.
The other option would be a Line Side Tap, where the interconnection is done ahead, or upstream of the main circuit
breaker/meter. Based on experience, this type of connection is subject to AHJ and PG&E approval, but allows for a
larger PV array interconnection. This configuration is typically done when the size of the PV array exceeds the maximum
breaker size allowable on a Load Side Tap. In the event that AHJ and or PG&E does not allow a Line Side Tap, and the
Library wishes to install a PV Array size that exceeds the limitations of a Load Side Tap, then a new electrical service,
complete with new service entrance switchboard would be required.

Switchboard
Switchboards will be completely assembled, indoor, free standing, with copper bus bars, full neutral bus, and separate
copper ground bus. All bus work will be braced to withstand 36KAIC amperes RMS symmetrical. Short circuit values shall
be revisited in future design phase to determine actual ratings for all equipment. Protective devices will be provided with
approved barrier between sections and extended load terminals. Protective devices will consist of circuit breakers. Circuit

III. ENGINEERING NARRATIVES

VOLUME II

Under the proposed renovation design we plan to re-use the existing PG&E electrical service transformer, and replace the
existing switchboard with new. The new switchboard has physical space to add a maximum 150Amp PV interconnection
breaker. Other than that, there is not any other electrical infrastructure planned to support a future PV array.

construction cost, but within a reasonable range given the early stage of design development.
There are fourteen alternates, divided into three categories. While all the alternates are preferred by the City and Library,
they are organized by priority. The inclusion of these alternates increases the quality and functionality of the proposed
renovation, however still only to a low to medium level when compared to similar recently constructed main libraries in
the Bay Area.
The first category of alternates (#1-8) are deemed as “High Priority” by both the City and Library. The construction cost
of this group of alternates is $3,896,000. Alternate #1 will provide a 2nd elevator, useful for day to day operations and
important as a backup in the event of repair or maintenance. Alternate #2 replaces single occupancy restrooms in the
1st and 2nd floor lobbies with multi-occupancy restrooms. The single occupancy restrooms, while adequate for code
compliance, are problematic from a security and capacity standpoint. Alternate #3 replaces exposed structure with
acoustic ceilings throughout the building. The acoustic challenges created by exposed ceilings are significant, and
ceilings are considered standard for a contemporary library. Alternate #4 replaces the perimeter concrete tile roof with a
new standing seam roof, gutters, and rainwater leaders. While the perimeter roof appears to be in minimally acceptable
condition, this would be a prudent improvement from a long-term maintenance standpoint. Alternate # 5 replaces
mulch around the perimeter of the building with landscaping and planting. Alternate #6 provides a patio for the Staff,
a public patio for the Community Room, and garden for the Children’s Area, each expanding programmatic capacity.
Alternate #7 replaces the aging 2nd floor windows with new operable code compliant windows, and also provides a
cement plaster finish at the 2nd floor exterior walls. Alternate #8, the last item in the “High Priority” category, will create
a raised clerestory at the center of the building above the main stair, bringing light into what would otherwise be a dark
2nd floor due to the small existing window openings at the perimeter.
The second category of alternates (#9-12) are improvements to the building that would be considered typical for a new
library facility. The construction cost of this group of alternates is $388,000. Alternate #9 provides a natural wood finish
at the lobby walls, adding warmth and quality from the bare minimum gypsum wall board provided in the base design.
Alternate #10 provides a large wall graphic, adding color to the interiors. Alternate #11 provides large sliding glass
walls at the Community Room patio and Children’s Area garden. These would be a valuable amenity on mild days and

DEADLINE

$27 million renovation of the existing library, Jayson
Architecture evaluated the overall schedule for the
project. Working backwards from the Measure S
bond deadline in summer 2024, we established
the key phases required to complete the project.
We determined that the timeline is adequate for
a project of this scale, however, does not allow for
much flexibility or schedule delay.
In addition, establishing this schedule is critical to
define the construction cost of the project, because
the rate of cost escalation is established by the

midpoint of construction. The cost of the escalation

year, which means a nearly 20% rate of escalation is

an annual escalation rate of approximately 5% per

midpoint of construction. Mack5 has projected

currently included in the construction estimate is
approximately $3 million. Any further delay to the
schedule would result in increased escalation of
construction costs on the order of $1 million per
year, increased projects soft costs of approximately
$500,000 per year, and further cuts to the library
and community’s programmatic goals. The cost of
delay is further compounded with each additional
year added to the schedule.
We have provided the schedule in two formats,
a simplified graphic timeline including work
completed by the City to date, as well as a
detailed Gantt chart format schedule showing the
relationship of each phase of the project to the
overall schedule between the date of this report
and the bond deadline.
