Document Description
The Project involves development of an Emergency Operations Center (EOC) on a 15-acre site within the Fairview Developmental Center (FDC) in Costa Mesa, which is currently being decommissioned. The FDC is eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places and California Register of Historical Resources as a Historic District (Fairview State Hospital Historic District). The Project includes two main structures, a 35,000-SF office building and a 20,000-SF support warehouse. Other improvements include outbuildings, landscaping and fencing, paved staff and visitor parking areas, a 100-foot microwave tower with 20 feet of equipment on top, a helipad and various other infrastructure improvements such as utilities, stormwater, intersections and roadways. The Project would also include energy infrastructure such as PV panels, battery energy storage and emergency generators and would be designed to be Zero Net Energy. Construction is expected to begin in mid-2024 and the EOC is anticipated to open for operation in 2027.
