STAFF REPORT
5055 HALLMARK PARKWAY: CODE IMPROVEMENTS
In mid-December, staff was contacted by a prospective tenant who
desired to lease approximately half of the business space at 5055
Hallmark Parkway. Because the property has remained vacant for a time
period beyond the 180 days allotted by municipal code, it is necessary
to commence building improvements immediately in order to retain
prospective tenants, as this property has become increasingly
marketable.
LANDLORD PROVIDED BASE BUILDING WORK
Because the building has been vacant for more than the maximum 180 days
allowed by the current municipal code, it will be necessary for the
Agency to complete the following work in the entire building.
These improvements are not specifically for this tenant, but are
necessary for any prospective tenant considered for leasing approval at
this location.
a. Building Fire Sprinkler Protection System
Estimated cost: $27,400
b. Exterior Building Lighting
The majority of the lighting on the
exterior of the building has been
vandalized and/or removed. For the
sake of security and marketing
purposes, staff believes it is
necessary to retrofit the damaged
and stolen lighting fixtures.
Estimated cost: $15,000
c. Building Suite Code Violation And Vandalism
The interior of the building over
a period of time has been vandalized.
Some actual theft of circuit breakers,
wiring and toilet fixtures has occurred.
Other damage is purely destruction of
existing drywall, doors and windows.
In addition, previous occupants
installed certain improvements (i.e.
lighting and specialized wiring) that
was not in compliance with then or current
code. All of these items will need to

either be removed, replaced and/or
repaired.
Estimated cost: $10,000
d. American Disability Act Requirement
To obtain Certificates of Occupancy, it will
be necessary that all pedestrian doors
be provided with lever hardware.
In addition, the restrooms will need to be
upgraded to accommodate the physically
handicapped.
Estimated cost (for the one suite only): $ 3,500
Total expenditures required to provide retrofit
construction to bring building to 1992 code
compliance. $55,500
Because of the existing municipal building codes, the cost to reuse the
facility has, unfortunately, gone from basic repairs to a capital
contribution of $55,000. The advantage of completing these needed
improvements will be to retain prospective tenants. Recently staff has
i been contacted by a prospective tenant for the use of 8,000 square feet.
Such a tenant is looking for service ready space with a minimum of
down-time. The immediate construction of the necessary improvement will
ensure that prospective tenants will not go elsewhere for comparable
space.
As such, staff is recommending approval of $55,000 to finance code items
related to the 5055 Hallmark Parkway building. Funds would not be
expended until such time as the Community Development Commission approves
an appropriate lease. Staff anticipates the lease document will be
considered by the Commission on January 11, 1993 or January 20, 1993.
On January 7, 1993 the Redevelopment Committee recommended to the
Community Development Commission approval of this matter.
Staff recommends adoption of the form motion.
