PURPOSE: To approve Budget Amendment #7-E for the repair of the District Attorney Building.
BACKGROUND: The District Attorney building located at 144 East Margaret Lane in
Hillsborough started having issues with water intruding through the roof and around the building
into the crawl space in November 2018. As part of an investigation of the gutters and storm
water drains on the west side of the building, it was discovered that a portion of the terracotta
storm piping underneath the restrooms for the pavilion had collapsed. The findings also
indicated that ground water underneath the building has created heavy amounts of organic
growth in the crawl space that covers a large portion of the soil. Due to the humidity and
seasons changing, this matter has become time sensitive in order to prevent any future moisture
intrusion or organic growth into the building or entering into the HVAC equipment located within
the crawl space.
The scope of work includes:
• Removal, cleaning and reinstallation of the downspouts. Video of the drain lines.
Cleaning the gutter drains and videos to confirm cleaning is effective.
• Crawlspace cleaning, remediation of soil with organic growth, install moisture barrier.
• Replace damaged brick on both chimneys, including repointing and sealing the bricks.
• Repair damaged terracotta drain line, waterproofing and perform site grading to move
water away from the building.
Since this project was not anticipated as part of the Capital Budget, a budget amendment is
necessary to finance this project. This budget amendment provides for the creation of the
following Capital Project Ordinance:
