Karlen, Community Services Director SUBJECT: Senior Center Improvements Carpet BACKGROUND: In the Capital Improvement Budget, City Council has allocated $75,000 for improvements at the San Bruno Senior Center. The improvements identified include upgrade flooring, door hardware, and interior paint. At the April 16, 2024 meeting, the board finished their selection of carpet and paint for the Senior Center Improvements to be scheduled in FY 2024/25. The Board voted on Aragon Cobre for the design and color of the carpet for the facility. As mentioned at the last meeting, there is a desire to carpet and paint the office space within the facility sooner to allow for new furniture to be installed in mid-June. DISCUSSION: When following up with the Facilities team it was brought to the attention of the Community Services team that the carpet selected is not available in carpet squares. Carpet squares are preferred due to the durability and ability to replace damaged carpet areas. The carpet selected can be seen here: The Facilities team is recommending a similar product (Cobblestone Bark) shown below as an option that is available in carpet squares for the board’s consideration. Item 7c Page 10 of 11 FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact associated with this staff report. RECOMMENDATION: 1. Accept the recommendation to change the carpet design to the Cobblestone Bark carpet squares. ALTERNATIVES: 1. Reject the recommendation for the carpet square option and continue with the original selection in rolls of broadloom carpet. ATTACHMENTS: 1. None Item 7c Page 11 of 11
