With the exception of the newly acquired properties, the Santa Ana Historic Preservation Society (SAHPS) surveyed these buildings and identified materials to be removed and preserved. In the event that SAHPS is unable to carry out the salvage in a timely manner, contractors were asked to bid on the salvage and the cost is included in the bid amount. Once SAHPS has surveyed the new acquisitions, any additional salvage will be incorporated into the contract by means of a change order. Responsive proposals were received from five qualified firms. All proposals received are summarized in the table below: Company Name Total BidAmount Vizion's West $180,270.00 R.B. Holt $252,893.60 Interior $265,656.00 AMPCO $392,400.00 J & G $394,511.00 The proposal received from Vizion's West was the lowest responsive bid, and the proposed contract (Exhibit 2) incorporates that bid. A contingency of $36,500 for a total contract amount of $216,770 will ensure adequate funding to demolish the buildings, provide for necessary site work and fund any necessary change orders arising from hazardous materials testing, additional historic salvage requests, or from other unforeseen contingencies.

In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, Environmental Impact Report No. 2006-02 was prepared for the proposed redevelopment, including the demolition of the existing structures on properties owned by the Community Redevelopment Agency of the City of Santa Ana in the Station District that are the subject of the implementing actions.

All potential significant environmental effects of the implementing actions, together with feasible mitigation measures and alternatives to the proposed redevelopment, were considered in the certified Final EIR. There have been no changes to the project which will result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of any environmental effects of the implementing actions beyond the environmental effects fully evaluated in the Final EIR.
