Fire Station No. 1 Temporary Station Relocation Project (C11502435)

The City of Petaluma is initiating a temporary fire station relocation project to ensure uninterrupted emergency response services while Fire Station 1 undergoes renovation from late summer 2025 through Fall 2026. The project will establish a fully functional temporary facility at 307 Petaluma Blvd South, featuring a portable double-wide trailer for firefighter living quarters and administrative functions, a dedicated apparatus bay to shelter emergency vehicles, paved access and parking areas, and minor site regrading to support drainage and operational needs. Utility services including water, sewer, power, and communications will be extended from 2nd Street to the temporary site, enabling full operational capability without reliance on the existing station. Emergency vehicle routing will be maintained via Petaluma Blvd South for responses and re-entry through 2nd Street, minimizing traffic disruptions. Upon completion of the permanent station renovation, all temporary structures and site improvements will be completely removed. The project is classified as a minor public works initiative under California’s CEQA regulations, qualifying for categorical exemptions under Classes 3, 4, and 32 due to its limited environmental impact, infill development nature, and alignment with urban zoning for public safety facilities. While no formal federal contracting clauses, pricing details, or commercial terms are documented, the City of Petaluma Public Works Department, led by Project Manager Paul Geoghegan, is the sole responsible entity for oversight, inspection, and acceptance at the performance site. No contracting officer, COR, COTR, or formal invoicing procedures are specified, and the available information suggests this is a pre-solicitation forecast rather than a fully executed contract. Financial details are limited to a $50 environmental filing fee, with no contract value, line-item pricing, or payment terms provided. The project relies on local governance and administrative processes rather than federal procurement frameworks, with no representations, certifications, or socioeconomic requirements applicable.
