<br /> cleaning all of the surfaces and equipment. The underlying cause of water
<br /> intrusion and moisture in this facility is its location within the flood plain. Due
<br /> to this location, any significant rain event causes flooding in the basement.
<br /> This project proposes to correct the root cause by sealing the basement from
<br /> the first floor of the building and installing storm water diversion and drainage
<br /> improvements.
<br /> o Heating, Ventilation, and Cooling (HVAC) Projects - $1,157,500
<br /> The FY2019-20 CIP recommends increasing the investment in HVAC
<br /> projects to mitigate humidity in County facilities. The FY2018-19 investment
<br /> totaled $142,000; however, $105,000 was repurposed for emergency
<br /> remediation projects. Comparatively, the recommended FY2019-20
<br /> investment is over$1.1 million. This project includes a Humidity Impact Study
<br /> ($50,000) as well as system replacements for the Central Recreation Facility
<br /> ($165,000), Hillsborough Commons ($88,000), Mural Courtroom ($32,000),
<br /> Seymour Center ($132,000), and the Southern Human Services Center
<br /> ($357,000). This project also contains a backup cooling unit for the County's
<br /> data center ($35,000) and an emergency replacement fund ($50,000) for
<br /> unexpected equipment failures.
<br /> o Roofing and Fagade Projects - $1,142,800
<br /> The goal of the Roofing and Fagade project is to repair known points of
<br /> failure and to proactively identify measures to protect County facilities from
<br /> water intrusions. The FY2018-19 Capital Budget included $369,800 in roofing
<br /> and fagade repairs. Of this amount, $174,800 was repurposed for
<br /> remediation projects, and a new $41,200 will be requested to complete
<br /> urgent roof repairs on the District Attorney's building.
<br /> The FY2019-20 project recommends nearly $1.2 million in roofing and fagade
<br /> investments. This project will fund a Building and Fagade study ($25,000)
<br /> and a third party inspection process ($55,000) as preventative elements.
<br /> Funding is also recommended to repair or replace roofing and fagade
<br /> features at the Motor Pool Facility ($180,500), Central Recreation ($45,000),
<br /> Hillsborough Commons ($376,000), the Justice Facility ($103,000), Orange
<br /> County Public Transportation ($40,000), and the Seymour Center ($55,000).
<br /> The project also funds design services for a large roofing projects at the
<br /> Southern Human Services Center ($64,000) as well as a partial window
<br /> replacement at the Whitted Building ($111,300).
<br /> o Whitted Site Drainage and Storm Water Improvements ($575,000)
<br /> The Whitted Building is positioned at the bottom of a hill, subjecting the
<br /> facility to significant storm water impacts. These impacts have created water
<br /> intrusion issues from the exterior of the building. This project recommends
<br /> site drainage improvements, facility waterproofing, and grading changes to
<br /> prevent water from penetrating the exterior walls.
<br /> • Criminal Justice Resource Department- $216,300
