City of Culver City, California
City Council Agenda Item Report
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Culver City City Council (“Council”) and Culver City
Redevelopment Agency (“Agency”) award a tri-party contract to Viking Equipment
Corporation (“Viking”), for removal of asbestos and lead-based paint materials and
demolition of building and site improvements at 12337 & 12343 Washington Blvd.
(former Shell Gasoline Station and adjacent flower shop) and 12803, 12805 & 12807
Washington Blvd. (commercial buildings).
BACKGROUND:
The sites to be demolished are possessed by the Agency and are part of two major
Agency projects: the Washington Centinela project and the West Culver Lofts
project. The subject properties were acquired by the Agency for the purpose of
eliminating blight along West Washington Boulevard. Per the terms within the
pending Disposition and Development Agreement to be executed between the
Agency and the Developers, the Agency will undertake clearing the sites.
The Agency is working with the Olson Company to redevelop the north corners at
the intersection of Washington Boulevard and Centinela Avenue. The properties at
12337 & 12343 Washington Blvd. (former Shell Gasoline Station and adjacent
Michel’s Flower Shop) represent the northeast corner of the Washington Centinela
project. The northwest corner is expected to be demolished in August 2006, and is

City Council Agenda Item Report
not included in the present consideration. The project is intended to enhance the
area by removing vacant, deteriorated structures and by improving the properties
with a combination of neighborhood-serving commercial uses and housing.
The commercial building located at 12803, 12805 & 12807 Washington Blvd is one
of four properties on the Baldwin Motel block (i.e. the 12800 block of Washington
Boulevard, between Meier Street and Moore Street). Former tenants of the
commercial building include Cora’s Restaurant, Marv & Mary’s Bar, and Mario. Bros.
Market. The new use proposed for this block by Urban Equity Partners is 12
live/work units plus 12 loft housing units. The Baldwin Motel at 12823 Washington
Boulevard and the two four-unit apartment buildings (12811 and 12813 Washington
Boulevard) have already been demolished. This is the last remaining property to be
demolished before the site is entirely clear.
DISCUSSION:
Pursuant to Article XIII, Section 1304, in the City Charter, contracting for demolition
does not require a formal bidding process. An informal bid process was used in
order to expeditiously proceed with eliminating the blighting influence of the
properties and to eliminate the attendant attractive nuisance and security problems
while obtaining a competitive price for the work.
All sites were surveyed for asbestos and lead-based paint by CTL Environmental
Services. On March 27, 2006, a letter soliciting proposals incorporating a demolition
plan and the asbestos and lead-based paint survey project record were made
available to the proposing contractors. The letter called for the demolition of the
building and site improvements, with abatement and remediation of hazardous
materials scheduled to occur concurrently with the demolition. The proposing
contractors will be responsible for the proper abatement of the asbestos and lead-
based paint-containing material under monitoring and oversight by CTL
Environmental Services. City of Culver City, California

Staff recommends that the Council and Agency award a contract to Viking
Equipment Corporation in the amount of $82,200 for the abatement and demolition
services as the lowest and most responsive cost proposal, and also recommends
that staff receive authorization to approve change orders for unforeseen conditions
not to exceed an additional $15,000. Unforeseen conditions are common when
demolishing structures because subsurface infrastructure is difficult to identify
beforehand.
The work is expected to commence within ten days of the contract award and be
completed within approximately 15 working days. A pest control company will be
asked to do an inspection prior to demolition. Construction management will be
performed by the Public Works Department, and CTL Environmental will monitor
the abatement process under an administratively approved contract.
FISCAL ANALYSIS:
The cost of a contract with the proposed bidder for the 12337 & 12343 Washington
Blvd. is $47,000. There is a balance of $245,433.56 presently available in account
number 55092610.619800 (Washington/Centinela – Other Contractual Services) to
provide for this expense.
The cost of a contract with the proposed bidder for 12803-12807 Washington
Boulevard is $35,200. Currently, the Agency has $963,479.00 available in
account number 55392630.710150 (Baldwin Motel Block – Demolition of
Structures). City of Culver City, California
