Pasadena Area Community College District Construction Trades Lab Study Project

The Pasadena Area Community College District plans to develop a Construction Trades Lab Study space on a 0.5-acre site located on the north side of Lot 3 at the College. The project will include the installation of a temporary portable classroom, a portable restroom, three metal storage containers, a shaded table area, outdoor seating, lighting, fencing, and open-air wood-framed instructional structures designed to support hands-on training in construction trades. Ground-disturbing activities will be minimal and limited to minor demolition of existing concrete surfaces at the entry walkway, trenching for utility connections including water, electrical, and sewer services, and the subsequent repaving of any disturbed areas. The design prioritizes temporary and functional infrastructure to facilitate immediate educational use while minimizing long-term environmental impact. The project is forecasted with a posted date of June 8, 2026, and will be carried out in Pasadena, California, with a zip code of 91106. Richard Laret, Executive Director of Facilities and Construction Services, serves as the primary point of contact and can be reached at rlaret@pasadena.edu or by phone at 626-585-7023. No solicitation number or set-aside information is provided, indicating this is an early-stage announcement rather than a formal procurement. The project aims to expand vocational training capacity by creating a dedicated outdoor learning environment that supports practical instruction in construction disciplines, with infrastructure designed for flexibility and durability in an open-air setting.
