The facility to be leased is the former New Shanghai Restaurant located at 100 East Pine Street. The term of the lease will be ten years at $1 per year and used as an adult day health care center. BACKGROUND INFORMATION: In December 1998, the City Council accepted the donation of the property at 100 East Pine Street from Donald Wong. The property includes a former restaurant building, built in 1966. Mr. Wong requested that the building be used "for the benefit of the citizens of Lodi", preferably seniors or youths, and that it not be demolished for at least ten years. Council directed staff to prepare and issue a Request for Proposal (RFP). RFP's were mailed to approximately 70 local agencies/organizations. Six proposals were received and evaluated, and the highest-ranking organization, Health for All, Inc., (copy of proposal attached) was interviewed. Other organizations that submitted proposals were: San Joaquin Valley Square Dancing Association, Tokay Players, Stockton -Lodi Church of Religious Science, Lodi Gang Alternative Project (GAP), and the Lodi Fellowship Church - Operation Help (Food Locker). After the interview, City staff toured the organization's current facility, at 125 South Washington Street, and observed the program in operation. Staffs recommendation is that Health for All, Inc. be allowed to lease the Pine Street facility for ten years, as their proposal requests. They intend to apply for a low-interest loan to fund the tenant improvements that would be required to meet their governing agencies' building requirements, and have pledged to work with the Public Works and Community Development departments to ensure that any remodeling done meets all Code requirements. They anticipate spending $250,000 to $300,000 on tenant improvements. This is an expansion project for Health for All, Inc., and they intend to continue to operate at their existing site at 125 South Washington Street. A Phase I Environmental Report was completed, finding some asbestos -containing floor tiles. Removal of the affected the is estimated at $10,000 and is at the City's expense. Health for All will work with the City to see that all asbestos is removed prior to occupancy, and are willing to coordinate that with other construction work. FUNDING: $10,000 for asbestos abatement from the Capital Reserve Fund (General Fund). Funding Available:'- - Finance Dire for ichardliC. Prima, Jr. Public Works Director Prepared by Dennis J.

Pine Street as an Adult Day Health Care Center. If Health For All obtains the use of the building to the year 2009, its primary objective would be to help restore or maintain optimal capacity for self- care and independence for frail elderly persons and other physically or mentally challenged adults. The focus of Health For All would be on under -served individuals particularly those on Medi -Cal. It would mirror all four of Health For All's present centers including, the present Health For All Lodi, ADHC, at the Loel Senior Center complex. Summary of Organization: Health For All is a non-profit, 501(c) 3 community-based organization dedicated to providing comprehensive health and social services to disadvantaged children, adolescents, young parents and the frail elderly underserved in Northern California. HFA in particular focuses on the most impoverished fifteen percent of the Medi -Cal population who not only lack income but have other serious barriers for receiving necessary medical care, preventative care, health education, and social services. These barriers include language, culture, lack of transportation or childcare, and special and chronic health problems such as diabetes, hypertension, and chemical dependency. With this focus on the very fragile fifteen percent of welfare recipients, Health For All is considered a "safety net" health provider in Sacramento County. Incorporated since 1981, Health For All's philosophy centers on community outreach and community building. HFA designs programs and seeks funding that reach people who would not otherwise receive appropriate health care and social services. It designs programs that are designed to keep people and their communities healthy. Health For All provides services to low income, under -served populations through Adult Day Health Care (ADHC) Centers and community clinics, emphasizing both service to under -served communities and equally important, entry level jobs for people in the communities that are served. Health For All currently employs 110 full and part-time employees. ❑ 923 V Street • Sacramento, CA 95818 • (916) 448-6553 ❑ 910 S Street Sacramento, CA 95814 • (916) 446-6012 ❑ 125 South Washington Street • Lodi, CA 95240 • (209) 367-1552 ❑ 2730 Florin Road • Sacramento, CA 95822 • (916) 391-5591 ❑ 577 Las Palmas Avenue • Sacramento, CA 95815 • (916) 924-6703 ❑ 2118 Meadowview Road Sacramento, CA 95832 (916) 427-0368 0 4065 Grass Valley Hwy, #206 • Auburn, CA 95602 • (916) 885-2655 HEAD LL is Ll iF©p ALL A non-profit community corporation Intended Use of Facility: The facility would be used as an Adult Day Health Care (ADHC) Center, targeting in particular low-income participants who have been diagnosed as physically or mentally challenged. However, participants from all walks of life are welcome whether private pay or Medi -Cal. The program will help delay and prevent inappropriate institutionalization. The program will stress partnership with the participant, the family, the physician, and the community in working towards maintaining personal independence at all stages of life. Health For All would like to continue to hire from within the community highly qualified candidates. The building will be used after hours for meetings and other community activities. 1.) Participants attend M -F. Capacity 50+ ADA (Average Daily Attendance). Hours of Operation 8am.-5pm. 2.) HFA would like to lease for $1/per year for ten years until 2009. 3.) HFA will apply for a low interest 3.5% loan through the California Health Facilities Financing Authority: Capitol Mall Suite #590 Sacramento CA, 95814, for tenant improvements. 4.) HFA would utilize all 7,130 sq. ft. of the first floor and basement space for ADHC and activities. 5.) At this time all space will be fully utilized by HFA. The state has encouraged HFA to add at least fifty more participants per day served by ADHC, in the Lodi area. 6.) HFA will be responsible for tenant improvements of an estimated $250 - $300K.
