RETROFIT ANALYSIS
INTRODUCTION
This building analysis focuses on the primary
issues of life safety, accessibility standards, exiting
components and structural safety for continued use of
the building. Identification and abatement of
hazardous materials found such as asbestos containing
building material is included in this analysis. (see
report in appendix)
Main topics for consideration have been
developed as follows:
1. Accessibility requirements
2. Structural, load bearing and seismic
3. Energy and mechanical system
4. Materials testing
5. Asbestos materials
Each area of investigation has been
individually analyzed per the following:
• Listing of the existing condition
• The implications of the uniform code for
building conservation (UCBC)
• California Accessibility Reference Manual
• Recommendation of work or action to
correct deficiencies
• Cost projection for remedial work described

HISTORICAL
BACKGROUND
Atascadero's founder Edward G. Lewis came to
Atascadero in 1913, and he purchased 23,000 acres from
J.H. Henry. He needed a printing press to help
publicize his venture. Thus, the Printery was born in
1915. The Printery was the first major building
constructed in Atascadero's Civic Center and to be put
to use. The city administration building was not
completed until 1918. The architectural work was
prepared by San Francisco architect William Bliss for
both the "Printery" and the "City Administration"
buildings.
The Printery is located at the corner of East
Mall and Olmeda across the street from the elementary
schools and next to the National Guard Armory.
The south wing now known as the
photography studio housed the composing-inter type
room with three hand feed presses. The
kitchen/dining room housed three mammoth presses
and the pool room was the news printing room. The
foyer was finished with marble floors and its interior
walls were decorated with ornamental marble and
Ralph Holmes murals. The second floor was occupied
with offices: news writers, cloak rooms, a
stenographers room, and Mr. Lewis's office.
Construction of the original building was 17"
brick with brick veneer exterior walls at the lower level
floor and 14" brick walls with brick veneer at the
second floor. Also with slab floors and wood interior
stud walls.
In 1928 there was a major remodel. The
gymnasium was constructed and the news printing
room was converted to house a large swimming pool.
Also, some of the offices upstairs were converted into
dormitories.
The building has remained in this
configuration from then to present. In the late 20's the
Moran school for boys took possession of the property,
from this point on, the building has been in use by
various groups and organizations for meetings, classes,
and public service.
2
The building in its present and past use is
predominantly that of assembly areas designated as (a
gymnasium with a stage, a large size swimming pool, a
kitchen, a photography studio, large and small rooms
upstairs, and , etc.). There are five main areas, four on
the first floor and one on the second floor (where the
Temple Association meets).
DATES IN HISTORY
1950-1916
The Printery was occupied. Starting a
hurricane of publications around the United States
which caused the Atascadero post office to be the first
in San Luis Obispo county to be first class. The
illustrated review, a picture-news magazine from
rotogravure presses, and the Atascadero News, a paper
for local news both originated in 1916. This building
with its 125 employees soon became very successful
with the illustrated review, with circulation between
10,000 copies per month in their first years up to 1
million per month in later years.
1917
Construction of the Printery extension;
Additions are being made to house large presses and
the bindery. The bindery existed at the north wing
behind what is now the swimming pool space. Also a
paper shed and ink house existed behind the
gymnasium. These buildings had direct access to the
railroad.
1922
The "Printery" success continued until the
format was changed to a newspaper still in the
rotogravured format and called "The California
Illustrated Review" and again changed to "The
Atascadero Illustrated Review". The Atascadero News
has remained the same except it is now published
twice a week.
3
1924
Rotogravure presses installed, largest of their
kind west of the Mississippi.
1924-1928
After the Lewis holding went into
receivership, the Printery was operated as Western
Publishers. During this time the presses were moved
to Oakland when E.G. Lewis left.
1928-1950
The Printery and the City Administration
Building became the Moran school for boys. An
exclusive Junior College based in Seattle for several
years. The Printery became:
•A Dormitory
class rooms
•A gymnasium was constructed
One of the large spaces was converted to house a large
swimming pool
•One of the other large spaces was converted into a
kitchen
1930's
The Printery became the Miramonte school
1937
Young baseball legend Jackie Robinson lived
in Atascadero and worked as a counselor at the
Miramonte School. Colonial Benjamin Aldrich,
Amerivet school, a prep school and junior college
would be the last owner to occupy the Printery before
the Temple Association.
1950
The Temple Association was formed in
February 1950 where the local Masonic Lodge met
upstairs. In May of 1950 the Temple Association was to
serve as a "holding corp." for the purchase of the
building and property from the Aldrich family for the
sum of $ 25,000. At the time of purchase the only use
of the building was a navy reserve unit.
4
Recently, mayor pro tem George Highland
thanked the Masonic lodge and the Order of Eastern
Star for their donation of the property. Mary Aman,
president of the Masonic Temple Association handed a
key over to K.I.D.S. unlimited, a program of the city's
community services division. Thus, the proposed
Atascadero Recreation Center project was initiated. A
community center has been an important need in this
city for over 30 years.

ACCESSIBILITY
REQUIREMENTS
When existing (and historical) publicly funded
buildings have additions, renovations or alterations,
removal of architectural barriers is mandated. By code
analysis, seismic retrofit, electrical and mechanical
work are not considered alterations or renovations
that trigger the requirement for accessibility
compliance. However, with the addition of any new
development to the existing building, such as the
development of a teen center, the threshold to require
compliance will be reached, and accessibility of the
building should be included in this project.
Recommendations
All ground floor entrances are to be accessible
by means of a ramp where necessary. Path of travel to
the second floor is to be by an elevator.
Sanitary facilities for each sex are to be
accessible for each building level. The three existing
rest room pairs will need to be rebuilt with complying
features. Space and floor level constraints will
challenge the final design.
Drinking fountain and telephone (if installed)
will be accessible.
Also, all entry doors and related hardware,
opening force, thresholds etc. are subject to retrofit.
8
EXITING
The Uniform Code for Building Conservation
(UCBC, 1991 ed.) provides latitude for analysis of
existing and historical buildings. In the spirit of
continuing an existing use, the building codes
recognize the constraints of applying current code
analysis to existing exiting patterns. The expressed goal
is to preserve the 'fabric' of the historic structure
without compromising existing exiting.
All areas of the building currently have exiting
paths and these can be maintained. These paths will be
maintained as well as the additional protection
provided by a fire sprinkler system. The second floor is
required to have two exits and has the stair to the
entrance lobby and the metal stair at the north end of
the building as these two exits.
Recommendation
The metal stair should be considered for
replacement due to its weathered, rusted condition.
The gymnasium, as an assembly area, should have a
second exit added to have direct access to the exterior.
9
STRUCTURAL
ANALYSIS
The building has been 'mapped' to verify the
physical building, original construction techniques and
the quality of the structural materials. A strategy for
structural strengthening for seismic loads is based on
the physical building loads and the strength of the
materials in place.
The result of the investigation is that the
building is an unreinforced masonry building with cast
concrete floors and that the materials are of relatively
good quality suitable for conventional techniques of
retrofit.
Wall, floor and foundation materials were
tested for structural capabilities and the testing report is
also in the appendix. The test results show that the
materials are within the allowable limits specified by
the UCBC.
The main area of structural concern are the
unreinforced masonry walls and the lack of connection
of the second floor and the roof to supporting walls. A
comprehensive outline of work from the structural
engineer is in the appendix of this report. Final
construction plans and details are being prepared based
on these investigations.
10
ENERGY AND
MECHANICAL SYSTEM
The building has no insulation on the walls or
floor except the inherent insulating qualities of thick
masonry and concrete slabs. The attic space at the
second floor is not insulated and has adequate space for
insulation and future mechanical systems.
The building has various heating installations
for separate spaces. The second floor has a forced air
furnace in the attic for the meeting hall, but no system
for the dorm room end. Downstairs, the dining room
and the gymnasium have individual gas fired space
heaters and the pool room has no heating. The photo
studio area is serviced by a ground mounted
heating/air conditioning unit.
The electrical systems for the building is a
patchwork of archaic and newer components. Parts of
the building have no electrical service and the
remaining systems are dangerous.
Recommendation
The electrical main service to the building
should be replaced with new feeders to existing
serviceable sub panels and to new subpanels and
mechanical equipment.
Each use area should be evaluated for basic
heating/air conditioning and ventilation requirements
and new systems installed.
11
HAZARDOUS
MATERIALS
In the appendix is the complete report by West
Coast Safety Consultants regarding asbestos containing
building materials. The report is comprehensive and
describes type, location and recommendations for
removal.
The main area of 'friable' materials is in the
basement with the boiler and all insulated piping
around the building perimeter in the under floor pipe
chase.
The 9x9 floor tiles throughout the building are
assumed to be asbestos containing and were not tested.
Other areas with the material are roofing
materials and some vent pipes.
Removal of the material, where necessary by
construction activities, will need to be carried out by an
asbestos abatement contractor.
12
BUDGETING
Following is a construction cost estimate based
on recommendations listed above and the information
available at this time. This cost estimate is
conservative by nature and is qualified by
estimating/bidding of actual working drawings and
specification.

Contract No. 94025
AGREEMENT TO CONVEY REAL PROPERTY
SUBJECT TO CONDITION SUBSEQUENT AND RESERVATION OF RIGHTS
This agreement is made and entered into on the a day of 1994,
between the ATASCADERO TEMPLE ASSOCIATION, INC., a California non-profit
corporation, (herein the "Temple"), and the CITY OF ATASCADERO, (herein the
"City"), who agree as follows:
RECITALS
A. The Temple is a non-profit organization which owns certain real property
described in Exhibit "A" (herein the "Real Property"), for the principal purpose of
maintaining it for fraternal, civic or social use, the present primary beneficiaries of
which are the Atascadero Lodge No. 493 of the Free and Accepted Masons of the
State of California ("Masons") and Chapter 344 of the Order of Eastern Star of the
State of California ("Eastern Star"); and
B. The City is presently seeking facilities for the expansion of its youth
recreational programs; and
C. The Temple desires to convey to the City and the City is agreeable to a
conveyance of a fractional interest in the Real Property, reserving to the Temple
certain rights and establishing certain use restrictions, including, but not limited, the
preservation of the historical nature of the Real Property and the establishment of
youth and other recreational activities on and within the Real Property; and
1
NOW THEREFORE, IT IS FURTHER AGREED:
Section 1. CONVEYANCE SUBJECT TO RESERVATIONS AND JOINT
OCCUPANCY AGREEMENT. The Temple shall grant to the City ninety-nine percent
fee simple interest to the Real Property, subject to the reservations set forth in Section
2 and the terms and conditions of a joint occupancy agreement (herein "Joint
Occupancy Agreement") the form of which has been approved by the City Manager
of the City and the Board of Directors of the Temple, subject to the conditions set
forth in Section 3.
Section 2. RESERVATIONS. The Temple, for itself and for its beneficiaries,
(the Masons and the Eastern Star), reserves from the grant to the City the exclusive
use of the "Lodge Room" and the existing storage rooms on the second floor of the
Recreational Center, without charge or offset, including, but not limited to,
maintenance and repair and the cost of utilities, exclusive of telephone service
("exclusive use area"); subject, however, to reasonable rules established by the City
applicable to the health and safety of the occupants of the Recreational Center. In
addition, the Temple and its beneficiaries shall have the first right of use, without
charge or offset, of the dining and kitchen areas in the Recreational Center, subject
to availability based upon written committed uses to such facilities by the City made
prior to written notice by the Temple of its intent to use the facilities.
Notwithstanding the above to the contrary, nothing herein shall prevent the Temple
and the City from establishing from time to time mutually acceptable guidelines for
reserving the use of the Recreational Center in those areas other than the exclusive
2
use area of the Temple as referenced above.
The additional specific terms of the agreement between the City and the
Temple concerning their joint occupancy of the Recreational Center is set forth in the
"Joint Occupancy Agreement," which provides for, among other things, insurance,
indemnifications, and the City's duty to provide to the Temple an alternative meeting
place in the event that repairs and maintenance to the Real Property require an
alternative meeting place by the Temple. The terms "Lodge Room", "kitchen" and
"storage" are defined with specificity in the "Joint Occupancy Agreement", which
definitions and the Joint Occupancy Agreement are incorporated herein by reference.
For the purposes of this Section 2, it is agreed that any use and occupancy
reserved by the Temple shall not only be for the benefit of the Temple but also for the
derivative benefit of the Masons and the Eastern Star, or their affiliated groups; the
organizations for which the corporate existence of the Temple applies.
Section 3. CONDITIONS TO PERFORMANCE.
3.1 The City's obligations to perform its undertakings provided in this
Agreement are conditioned on the fulfillment of each of the following:
3.1(a) The City's review and approval of a current preliminary title
report to be furnished by the Temple within fifteen (15) days of the date
hereof. The City shall have ten (10) days after receipt of said report in which
to review it and to make any objections to title exceptions known to the
Temple. If the Temple refuses to remove any objectionable exception or
exceptions, the City may elect to waive its objections as to any exception or
3
exceptions and proceed with the acquisition of the Real Property, or in the
alternative, the City may terminate its obligation hereunder. The City's failure
to notify the Temple in writing of any objectionable exception or exceptions
contained in the preliminary title report within said ten (10) day period shall be
deemed a conclusive presumption that the City has no objection as to any
exception or exceptions.
3.1(b) For the purpose of, among others, satisfying the City's due
diligence as required to support the covenants as set forth in Section 6 of this
Agreement, the City may, at any time and from time to time until the close of
escrow, enter the Real Property for purposes of inspection, survey, tests,
design of improvements, and other actions reasonably related to the
investigation by the City of the suitability of the Real Property.
The City will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Temple from any
loss, damage, claim, cost, lien, action, liability, or judgment (including, without
limitation, the Temple's attorney fees and defense costs) (i) incurred for, from,
or by any person or entity acting on behalf of, at the request of, or for the
purpose of the actions of the City under this section; or (ii) for personal injury,
property damage, or other loss or damage of any kind arising from, resulting
from, or in any way related to such entry.
The City may make minor changes in the real property in the course of
any investigation permitted under this paragraph (e.g., soils borings), provided
that the change or damage is only temporary, that it is reasonably necessary
4
to the investigation of the physical characteristics of Real Property, and that the
City repairs such damage and restores the Real Property to its original condition
promptly on completion of the investigation.
The obligation under this section shall survive the termination of this
agreement or the close of escrow. On the termination of the agreement for any
reason, the City shall immediately restore the property to its physical condition
as of the date of this agreement, at the City's sole cost.
By giving written notice to the Temple, the City shall have the right, at
any time prior to the close of escrow, to terminate this Agreement and the
escrow for any reason related to the Real Property discovered by the City's
investigation under this section.
3.1(c) The City's review and approval of any and all leases or
occupancy agreements affecting the Real Property within fifteen (15) days from
the date such leases and agreements are delivered by the Temple to the City.
At or before the close of escrow, the Temple shall deposit into escrow
an executed assignment of the leases or occupancy agreements on a form to
be prepared by the City, together with an estoppel certificate executed by each
tenant nor more than fifteen (15) days before closing, in the form attached as
Exhibit "B". The Temple warrants and represents that at this time and as of
the closing no other leases of the property are or will be in force; no one else
has a right of possession; no rent concessions were given; no other agreements
were made with the tenants; and neither the Temple nor any tenant is in
default under any lease.
5
3.1(d)The Temple's membership voting in accordance with the California
Corporations Code to amend its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws to provide that in
the event the Temple maintains an interest in the Real Property at the time it dissolves
or is subject to being dissolved in accordance with the California Corporations Code,
then (i) the interest in the Real Property will be distributed to the City upon dissolution
and (ii) the City shall have the right and power to cause the Temple to be involuntarily
dissolved pursuant to California Corporations Code §8510(b)(1).
3.1(e) The review and approval of the " Joint Occupancy
Agreement" by the City Council for the City in accordance with law, prior to
the close of escrow.
3.2 The Temple's obligations to perform its undertakings provided in this
Agreement are conditioned upon fulfillment of each of the following:
3.2(a) A letter of opinion by a Certified Public Accountant
and/or legal counsel selected at the discretion of the Temple
substantiating that the conveyance of the Real Property to the City and
the performance of the terms of the Occupancy Agreement will not
constitute a taxable event for any tax purposes or otherwise affect the
Temple's status under any governmental code, statute, ordinance or rule
as a non-profit Corporation.
3.2(b) The approval of the " Joint Occupancy Agreement" by the
members of the Temple pursuant to its Bylaws and in accordance with the
California Corporations Code, prior to close of escrow.

3.2(c) The Temple's membership voting in accordance with the
California Corporations Code to amend its Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws to
provide that in the event the Temple maintains an interest in the Real Property at the
time it dissolves or is subject to being dissolved in accordance with the California
Corporations Code, then (i) the interest in the Real Property will be distributed to the
City upon dissolution and (ii) the City shall have the right and power to cause the
Temple to be involuntarily dissolved pursuant to California Corporations Code
§8510(b)(1).
3.3 Each party's obligation to perform its undertakings provided in this
