The Pacifica School District board moved forward on a long-discussed workforce-housing project May 1, approving a construction contract for Phase I after rebidding produced modest savings.
Brookwood Group construction representatives reported that rebidding returned a recommended award to James E. Robert Obayashi for a revised construction cost of $39,392,961, down from the January figure of $39,468,694. "We have found... for the same scope, have a new bid to award for $39,392,961, representing a savings of $75,733 since our last presentation in January," Brett Keeler of Brookwood Group said.
Board members moved and seconded a motion to approve the draft agreement and to authorize the contract to become effective on 05/01/2026. The project description presented to trustees shows 45 units, three community buildings and restoration of athletic field work; Brookwood Group reaffirmed recommendation to award the contract for Phase I to the recommended contractor.
The board discussion referenced shovel-ready status and invited further funding partners but did not record a roll-call tally in the meeting transcript. Funding and oversight for the project were discussed as part of district capital planning; the recommended contract award was presented as the lowest responsive bid following rebidding.
