Grant Park Community Center

Los Altos, CA 94024

The Grant Park Community Center, located in Grant Park at 1575 Holt Avenue, consists of a multipurpose room along with a single classroom wing. The roof on the classroom wing was last replaced in the 1980s and has now passed its life expectancy.

The roof consists of a built up material and is in two sections, a sloped portion and a flat section. Numerous issues have occurred in the flat section with the perimeter being the worst area where most of the water leaks occur. The ridge perimeter at the top has split, is showing signs of water penetration, and the membrane around the eave and gutters is failing. Over the years, the roof has become worn and is need of a complete tear off and replacement.

The project bid has been awarded to Pioneer Contractors, Inc., in the amount of $141,000. Pre-construction meetings are in-process as of September 2015. Once the project begins, it is anticipated to take 30 days to complete.

Anticipated Impacts

There will be site impacts as materials will have to be staged with fencing around it. There may be limited access to classrooms while work is performed. Some classrooms may be inaccessible depending on extent of water damage and necessary repairs.
