Battle Courtroom Remediation <br />Project Category:County Capital Project Status:New Project Type <br />Functional Service <br />Area:Support Services Proposed Bid <br />Award Date:TBD New <br />Department:Asset Management <br />Services Starting Date:1/1/19 Expansion X <br />Project Number:10067 Completion Date:6/30/19 Renovation X <br />Replacement <br />Project Description/Justification:During FY 2018-19, the Battle Courtroom, located in the Orange County <br />Courthouse, experienced water intrusions that were exacerbated by heavy rains and flooding associated with <br />Hurricanes Florence and Michael. As these intrusions were investigated, staff found mold growth in the ceiling, <br />behind walls, and in the courtroom’s heating and ventilating system. Based on this finding, the County retained <br />a forensic engineer to determine the cause of the water intrusions. The engineers found that the intrusions were <br />linked to the roof and roof drainage system. <br />The remediation and reconstruction of this facility included cleaning all contents in the courtroom, jury room, and <br />Judge’s Chamber; removing all water-damaged and mold-contaminated building materials; providing testing <br />services to ensure no other contaminates are found within the courtroom and adjoining spaces; rebuilding the <br />courtroom; removing and reworking all electrical components; removing and replacing the existing heating and <br />cooling system located on the roof; installing new ductwork to the courtroom, jury room and Judge’s Chamber; <br />replacing all contaminated flooring and cabinetry; replacing the existing roof system with a new roof system <br />including all curbs and parapet walls; reattaching the gutter system; replacing and insulating roof drain piping; <br />and installing a roof access ladder. <br /> <br />FINANCIAL SUMMARY <br />Current Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5 Five Year 6 <br />Prior Years Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Fiscal Year Year to <br />Project Budget Funding 2018-19 2019-20 2020-21 2021-22 2022-23 2023-24 Total Year 10 <br />Expenses <br /> Professional Services - <br /> Construction/Repairs/Renovations 734,000 - <br /> Equipment/Furnishings - <br /> Total Project Budget -734,000------- <br />Funding Source <br /> From General Fund ------- <br /> Transfer from Other Projects 534,000 - <br /> Debt Financing 200,000 - - - - <br /> Total -734,000------- <br />Impact on Operating Budget <br /> Personnel Services - <br /> Operations - <br /> Recurring Capital <br /> New/Add'l Revenue -- <br /> Total Operating Costs -------- <br />180
