Cia OF SAN BERNARDOO - REQUOT FOR COUNCIL AC' JON
STAFF REPORT
On December 3, 1987, the Community Development citizen
Advisory Committee considered a request for demolition and
clearance arant assistance submitted by San Bernardino Area
Chamber of Commerce. The request for $5,000 in grant
assistance is to be supplemented by $30,000 Chamber members
will contribute to construct a parking lot immediately west
of the existing building. After discussion, the Committee
approved the request for demolition and clearance grant
assistance in an amount not to exceed $5,000 (under current
policy the CDCAC can approve requests for demolition assis-
tance less than $5,000).
When the procedures for bidding the project and selecting the
lowest reasonable bid came before Council, the city Attorney
advised that only the Mayor and Common Council could
authorize the advertisement for bids and select the lowest
reasonable bidder. Council can delegate to staff these
responsibilities if it so desires and incorporate same in the
new demolition policy currently being considered by the
Legislative Review Committee.
In the interim, specific approval is requested for staff to
advertise for bids. I recommend adoption of the Form Motion.
A release from the owner of record absolving the City of all
liability resulting from said demolition will be obtained
prior to the issuance to the contractor of a Notice to
Proceed.
