1. Merritt College Proposed New Science Complex PCCD Board of Trustee Meeting May 20, 2008 Presented By Dr. Sadiq B. Ikharo, Vice Chancellor Department of General Services

2. 2 Project History The growing demand and expanding science and allied health programs at Merritt College has created a great need to build the District’s largest classroom building (Building D) that would total 80,000 square feet.  Under Measure E, $5,747,150 was allocated for the initial planning and design to renovate Building D at 50,000 square feet.  Although the project is still in the planning and design process, early investigations indicate that the building’s utilities, functionality, and the usefulness of the fixtures, furniture and equipment surpassed its usefulness.  An additional $39,365,000 was from Measure A was allocated to the project budget for a total of $45,112,150. This amounts reflects the project construction cost of $31,578,505 and projected soft cost of $13,533,645.  Further analysis suggest that the option of a new “state of the art” science building at $45.1 million is more financially prudent when you consider the building life cycle analysis.  The District is required to bring the existing building up to code (seismic retrofit) by DSA (50% rule), if the cost of renovation is more than 50% of the value of the building. 2

Space constraints restricting full program development Restricted storage. Costly augmentation to structural, mechanical, and electrical systems. Potential change orders for unforeseen conditions. LEED Certification may not be possible. Disruption of instruction for moving and during construction. Timeline for relocation and swing space construction. Specialized costly swing space that would require augmentation for any future use. Additional 4000 sq. ft needed for new programs such as Tissue Culture, Genomics, Microscopy, Diet Nutrition, and DNA Analysis.  Next Steps: Coordinate with Peralta CCD and Merritt College representatives to expedite decision to abandon the old D building.
