HomeMy WebLinkAboutAgenda Report - December 21, 1994 (32)oR CITY OF LODI c r COUNCIL COMMUNICATION AGENDA TITLE: Request for Funds in the Amount of $46,000 to Replace Lodi Lake Ranger Building. MEETING DATE: December 21, 1994 PREPARED BY: Parks and Recreation Director RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve allocation of $46,000 from the Lodi Lake Fund BACKGROUND INFORMATION: O.S.H.A. received a complaint about the condition of the ranger/maintenance building (see attached). In order to comply with these safety concerns, we contracted to install a new roof. Once the old roof was exposed, it was determined that the extensive dry rot that permeates this building would also have to be repaired. We spoke to various contractors and it was determined that we could tear this building down and replace it with a new one and still be money ahead. The concrete block no longer meets code (see attached letter from Doug Holck). I therefore request $46,000 to replace the ranger/maintenance building at Lodi Lake Park.

Stockton Street Lodi, Ca. 95240 Attention: Mr. Scott Essin Re: Lodi Lake Rangers Office I have inspected the exhisting structure to determine the feasibility of remodeling and upgrading it. It is my opinion that the existing structure has deteriorated to a point that it is beyond saving. The existing masonry walls probably are unreinforced and do not meet todays codes. Demolition of the existing structure and foundation and starting new would probably be the most economical way to create usable space. Please call if I can be of further assistance. Sincerely,
