DESCRIPTION
Griffin Structures oversaw the development of the Orange City Fire Department Headquarters, which services
the Old Towne Section of Orange. The new station is
substantially larger than the former building. The campus provides firefighters with a more spacious vehicle bay, equipment maintenance and storage areas, training
facilities, and Fire Department administrative offices.

Most importantly, the new station provides space and
technology for the Orange City Fire Department, offering updated equipment, space flexibility, and administrative offices to continue their mission of providing the citizens of Orange superior service well into the 21st Century.

Given that the project site is within the Old Towne
Orange Historic District, the architecture compliments
the City’s historical Craftsman to Mission/Spanish Revival to Classical Revival style. Due to a strong community
interest in the design and construction of this facility, the project also incorporated a robust series of local
community outreach meetings to solicit input from
residents.

Griffin Structures assisted the City of Monterey to
identify and evaluate options for the potential expansion, renovation, remodel and/or replacement of the City’s
existing Public Safety Facility.

The current Public Safety Facility is home to the
Monterey Police Department (15,788 SF), Fire Station #11 (5,840 SF) and the Emergency Operation Center (1,300
SF). Initially constructed in 1959, the existing facility has received many renovations over the years with the
intention to fully assess and revitalize public safety
operations for the City.

A plan was developed to identify implementation costs,
phasing schedules, and considerations pertaining to
the continued operations of the Public Safety Facility
during construction. Our team also prepared a final
report to document the process utilized for selecting
the recommended option and will become a resource
document for subsequent environmental review including
preliminary site diagrams, cost estimates, and potential funding sources.

DESCRIPTION
The primary objective of this study was to identify
and develop a master plan for the major public safety
facilities in the City. The master plan addresses shortterm and long-term needs of both the police and fire department and identifies a relocation plan for the
fire department to move into newly constructed fire
facilities, thus allowing the police department to proceed with expansion of police facilities. The project included significant building surveys and cost analysis.

As part of the master plan study, Fire Station No.1 and Headquarters would vacate the existing public safety
facilities and move into a newly constructed fire facility.

The objective of the needs assessment was to identify
the space requirements for a new fire facility, which was completed through a series of plenary meetings between
our project team and the fire department planning
team. A detailed architectural program of space was
developed to produce schematic design drawings and
cost estimates for master plan integration.

PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The City of Manteca is advancing efforts to strengthen its fire and emergency response capabilities with the development of a new Fire Station 6. This initiative is critical to supporting the City's continued growth, improving emergency response times, and maintaining high service standards across the community.

Recognizing the urgency of addressing immediate operational needs while planning for long-term infrastructure investment, the City intends to pursue a phased approach that includes both a temporary facility solution and the design and
construction of a permanent fire station.

To assist in this effort, Griffin Structures will provide comprehensive program management services that span
the full project lifecycle, beginning with a detailed needs assessment, procurement of architectural services, and
design management oversight. Supplemental construction
management services can be provided as a future phase
once the project transitions into implementation.

Our scope includes:
• Needs Assessment: Analyze short-term and long-term
operational, spatial, and functional needs to inform
facility programming for both temporary and permanent
station solutions.

architectural and engineering services aligned with the City's goals, ensuring a transparent and competitive
selection process.
• Design Management: Serve as the City’s advocate and
technical advisor throughout the design process, ensuring that the project remains aligned with operational
objectives, cost parameters, schedule expectations, and design excellence standards.

Griffin Structures will act as an extension of City staff, providing hands-on leadership, proactive risk management, and critical path tracking to ensure the Fire Station 6 project is successfully advanced with transparency, collaboration, and accountability.

collaborative workshops to build consensus on needs.
• Functional & Spatial Programming
» Develop a detailed space program for both the
temporary and permanent stations.
» Identify square footage needs and functional
adjacencies for apparatus bays, gear storage, bunk
rooms, administrative areas, and support functions.
• Site Review and Evaluation
» Provide feedback on the identified location for
the temporary and permanent station, including
feasibility, infrastructure availability, and assumed
site constraints.
• Phasing Strategy & Implementation Options
» Provide recommendations for phased development
and interim operations.
