City secures low-cost asbestos remediation quote for 179 Grandview, demolition to follow
Summary
After three RFQs, the city received a $2,500 asbestos-removal quote for 179 Grandview that does not require interior cleanout; the purchase order was being prepared and demolition will be scheduled after remediation.
Director Dan Chafin told the Public Safety Committee that asbestos remediation at 179 Grandview had cleared a key hurdle: three RFQs and 120 interior photos produced one responsive low bid. One vendor quoted $15,000, which exceeded demolition cost estimates, while a second vendor quoted $2,500 and did not require interior clearing. A purchase order was pending and remediation will be scheduled; the city anticipates selecting a demolition vendor once abatement is complete.
Chafin characterized the remediation quote as enabling progress after an earlier stall on the project and said staff would proceed to schedule the asbestos abatement and then remove the structure. No demolition vendor was named in the meeting record.
