Redwood Coast Energy Authority’s Sept. 24 board agenda puts its 3rd Street office plans on a formal track, with two separate action items tied to the same facilities project.

One staff report seeks approval of a fifth lease amendment between GHD and RCEA for 718 3rd Street in Eureka, according to the agenda packet. A second report recommends design-build procurement for a remodel spanning 718 and 720 3rd Street and asks the board to create an ad hoc committee and delegate authority to shortlist contractors and issue a request for proposals.

The agenda materials identify the committee as the Ad Hoc Building Remodel Solicitation Committee, with up to five board members. The procurement item would also authorize the board to move from early planning into a contractor-selection process, rather than leaving the remodel as an internal facilities matter.

The packet excerpt available here does not include the lease terms, remodel budget, or construction timeline, and the board’s final action is not yet documented in the retrieved material.

The same Sept. 24 packet also includes routine financial and compliance items, along with a separate climate-action item and a federal grant execution request, but the 3rd Street facilities decisions are among the clearest operational actions on the agenda.
