Surplus II Hazardous Material & Building Removal . . . . . . COMPLETED
Background
The Seaside II Surplus Area was transferred directly from the U.S. Army to the City of Seaside (City) in 2005. The City explored a series of options in an attempt to reuse and/or rehabilitate the buildings on the site for 10+ years. The City determined the buildings are un-usable because:
- They contain lead, asbestos and other hazards.
- They do not meet structural code requirements.
- Reuse costs more than building new.
As a result, the Fort Ord Reuse Authority (FORA) used funds from the sale of former Fort Ord property to remove 20 buildings for public safety, and future economic development.
