Subject:
ADMINISTRATION RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt the Resolution.
FUNDING:
Funding is available from the City Center Redevelopment Agency (RDA).
ANALYSIS:
The new Miami Beach Regional Library opened its doors to the Public on March 1, 2005. A ribbon
cutting ceremony was held on April 1 , 2005. On April 4, 2005 the City took temporary possession of
the old Regional Library building, located at 2100 Collins Avenue. The existing building has been
completely vacated in preparation for demolition. Demolition of the old library is the first step
towards the overall renovation of Collins Park, which is currently in the planning stages.
In February 2004 the City hired the firm of Edward Lewis Architects, Inc. (ELA) to prepare plans for
the demolition of the old library and preservation of the rotunda building. The plans were completed,
and these were presented to the Historic Preservation Board on May 11, 2004, who recommended
that the City Commission consider granting a Certificate of Appropriateness for demolition. On July
28, 2004 the Mayor and City Commission granted a Certificate of Appropriateness for demolition of
the existing building.
The Administration has priced the demolition through its Job Order Contracting (JOC) program, and
obtained a price of $238,500. The work will consist of asbestos abatement, complete demolition of
the building, selective interior demolition and preservation of the rotunda structure, and restoration of
the site to an irrigated, grassy area. The following is a breakdown of cost:
Asbestos abatement:
Interior demolition / preservation of Rotunda:
Demolition of Library Building, including hauling & disposal:
Restoration of site to grassy area, including irrigation system:
General Conditions and Fee:

Regional Library Demolition
Page 2 of 2
The existing building is approximately 30,000 square feet in area. CIP Office staff has found that
demolition costs of approximately $7 to $10 per square foot are typical. In this case, the price per
square foot, including asbestos abatement and restoration is $7.95 which is found to be a fair
market value. .
Upon approval of funding, City staff will issue a Notice to Proceed to the contractor, who will in turn
obtain a permit for asbestos abatement. Physical work is expected to commence in early June 2005
and to be substantially completed by September 2005, in time to utilize the site for Art Basel. It
should be noted that the schedule for demolition is tight, and the possibility for unforeseen
conditions and delays exists, particularly during the asbestos abatement phase of the work.
Total funding in the amount of $294,940 will be required for demolition. This includes an AIPP
allocation of $3,578, a CIP Office project management fee of $13,509, a JOC program fee of
$3,578, and a project contingency of $35,775. A 15% contingency is recommended in this case,
due to possible unknown conditions that may arise during the asbestos abatement phase of the
project. The Administration recommends approval of the appropriation, in the amount of $294,940,
to be funded from City Center Redevelopment Agency.
