About this file
The document is a comprehensive technical specification for the Santa Cruz Parking Garage Elevator Modernization Project, developed by JE Sellen Consulting, LLC for the City of Santa Cruz, California in May 2025. The project involves the modernization of two hydraulic passenger elevators located at 601 Front Street and 1050 Cedar Street, including all engineering, equipment, labor, and permits required to complete the elevator modernization. The scope encompasses replacing and upgrading multiple elevator system components such as control systems, wiring, hoistway equipment, door operating equipment, signal equipment, and car enclosures while maintaining compliance with California building codes, ASME A17.1 standards, and local jurisdiction requirements.
The contract includes interim maintenance beginning from contract award until Substantial Completion, followed by a one-year warranty maintenance period. The modernization work involves retaining and reconditioning existing infrastructure where possible and replacing components to meet current safety and performance standards. The specification provides detailed technical requirements for each elevator system component, including performance criteria such as leveling tolerance (1/8-inch), door operation times, and sound control levels. Specific manufacturers are pre-approved for major components, and the project requires comprehensive documentation, including owners' manuals, backup software, and as-built drawings. The total project budget is not explicitly stated, but includes a $50,000 per elevator net allowance for car enclosure upgrades.
