Owner's Representative: Coral Street SUD (Substance Use Disorder) Navigation Center

The City purchased the project site at 125 Coral Street in 2022 for three million dollars with the intention of using it to provide 24/7, temporary, non-congregate shelter for a minimum of 50 individuals for stays of six months or less. The current project scope for the Coral Street SUD (Substance Use Disorder) Navigation Center includes the construction of a new Navigation Center that will provide a residential substance use disorder facility with related support services and therapeutic spaces, for residents (individuals) during their recovery treatment. The property has a total of approximately 27,835 square feet of land (APNs 008-171-24 and 008-171-25) and is located a half block west of River Street, northwest of Highway 1 within the City of Santa Cruz. It is adjacent to the Coral Street Campus, a City owned property under long term lease to the local non-profit Housing Matters. The project addresses the need to add residential substance use disorder (SUD) treatment to the local continuum of care by providing 50 beds of SUD treatment with ASAM levels 3.1, 3.2WM, and 3.5. The City of Santa Cruz (“City”) is issuing this Request for Proposals (RFP) for an owner’s representative to manage the overall Coral Street Residential Substance Use Disorder Navigation Center construction project. The City seeks responses from an individual or team (“Consultant”) to represent the City’s interests at each stage of the process and oversee the management of a design-bid-build process, including but not limited to the design process, contract scopes, budget management, development of construction plans, and construction supervision.
