Mill Valley Middle School Modernization Project

The Mill Valley Middle School Modernization Project involves the comprehensive rehabilitation of the existing Main Building (92,000 square feet) and Multi-Purpose/Gymnasium Building (15,200 square feet), with upgrades to exterior and interior finishes, infrastructure systems, and the installation of a sub-slab depressurization system to address potential soil gas intrusion. A new 4,000 square foot STEM building is also proposed to support modern educational needs, alongside the establishment of an interim campus on the project site to maintain instructional continuity during construction. The scope further includes authorizing the reservation of portable classrooms and increasing the budget for environmental consulting services to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. All work is being conducted at the school’s location at 425 Sycamore Ave, Mill Valley, California, with oversight from the Mill Valley School District and key state agencies including the Division of the State Architect and the California Department of Education. Environmental compliance is governed by CEQA guidelines, Title 24 building codes, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and California Department of Toxic Substances Control standards, with inspections and acceptance contingent upon formal approvals from these entities. The project is estimated to cost between $160.5 million and $262.6 million, reflecting feasibility-level evaluations of competing alternatives, though no formal contract line items, CLINs, or pricing structure are documented. There is no explicitly defined period of performance, FOB terms, or invoicing method, and no federal acquisition regulation clauses or federal accounting codes such as TAS or AAC are applicable, indicating this is a state and locally funded initiative rather than a federal contract. Key personnel include Julio Arroyo, Director of Facilities, and Richard Grassetti, Principal, with oversight from the district’s Superintendent and Business Services leadership. Environmental sampling and risk assessments have been conducted to evaluate contaminants including metals, VOCs, PCBs, and asbestos, with mitigation measures outlined in a Draft Mitigation and Monitoring Reporting Plan. Contractor responsibilities exclude remediation beyond design subgrade, utility relocations, and permitting or approvals not explicitly stipulated, and strict protocols are required for handling hazardous materials, waste management, and notification of unforeseen conditions. No federal certifications, small business size status declarations, or unique entity identifiers are present, and the procurement framework appears to be governed by state and local authority rather than federal acquisition regulations.
