Title
Solano Park Demolition Project
Description
The buildings at the UC Davis Solano Park student housing development have reached the end of their lifespan, are not compliant with current building codes, and would require substantial investments to provide for adequate seismic safety, building systems, and utility infrastructure. The safety of the students and their families is a priority for the University and maintaining uninhabited buildings poses an ongoing management concern for the University. Therefore, the University has determined that vacating, demolishing, and removing the buildings, followed by site stabilization, is necessary. As of November 2022, 60 percent of the units have been vacated and 40 percent of the units remain occupied but will be vacated by September 2023. Consistent with the University of California Relocation Assistance Act Policy for Real Estate Acquisitions and Leases (UC-CR-12-0187) and the UC Davis 2018 LRDP, the students and their families within the Solano Park apartments that need housing beyond the closure dates at Solano Park have been or will be offered on-campus housing, primarily at Primero Grove and Orchard Park, in compliance with the Relocation Assistance Policy. No new development is proposed at the project site and the demolition project does not include any new housing developments elsewhere on campus. Rather, other on-campus housing, primarily at Primero Grove and Orchard Park, will provide sufficient units to accommodate the students and families relocated from Solano Park. The Project would involve demolition of the UC Davis Solano Park student housing development, including site preparation and hazardous materials remediation; demolition and removal of existing structures; relocation of water pipelines; placement of electrical conduit to maintain street lights and security lighting; and final site stabilization and management. The project site would be fenced during demolition to prevent public access. Pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicle access would be maintained along project’s northern boundary, Arboretum Drive, during demolition. All demolition would be completed in accordance with current codes and ordinances. A staging area, or multiple staging areas, would be established onsite to accommodate contractor parking, debris collection bins, and equipment. In compliance with the 2018 LRDP EIR archaeological resource Mitigation Measures 3.4-1a through 3.4-1c, the University has identified and documented known archaeological resources at the project site and has designed the demolition project to avoid the known archaeological resources to the degree feasible. The demolition activities in the northern and southern portions of the project site would involve different levels of ground disturbance to prevent disturbance of native soils where there is high likelihood of encountering archaeological and tribal cultural resources.
