The Department of Cultural services requests funding for water instrusion remidiation in the Veterans Memorial Auditorium as outlined in the "Water Instrusion and Settlement of Slab Investigation" report dated August 17, 2021 by Wiss, Janney, Elstner Associates, Inc. This work has taken on a new urgency given the observed water intrusion that occured during the storm on Sunday, October 24, 2021 that resulted in hundred of gallons of water pouring into the basement of the VMA. Without the heroic efforts of Cultural Services and DPW staff, the water instrusion could have been catastrophic to the Veterans Memorial Auditorium. The three areas for remidiation, along with the recommended actions are: 1) the lift pit and adjacent lower stairs (recommendation: injecting urethane grout into joints and cracks), 2) the main level stair hallways (recommendation: provide trench drains and exit doors, provide general maintenance to site drainage systems), and 3) the green room curtain wall (recommendation: provide a temporary closure at the curtain wall, maintain planter area drainage system). Please see full report -- attached -- for all the details. Project is included in the Marin County's FY 2022-2027 CIP. As of September 7, 2022, information regarding a design team or a general contractor is not available. Funding is anticipated in 2022/2023.* *Project information has been obtained through a public capital improvement plan (CIP).
