Council approves $45,000 waterproofing contract for 10 South Brentwood police building
Summary
The board approved a $45,000 contract (plus $2,500 contingency) with Western Waterproofing through the TIPS cooperative to repair a plaza deck that has been leaking into the lower level of the 10 South Brentwood facility, which houses the police department.
The Board of Aldermen on May 27 approved a contract with Western Waterproofing Company (doing business as Western Specialty Contractors) to address water infiltration at the lower level of the 10 South Brentwood facility.
City staff said heavy rainfall on April 4 caused water to infiltrate the police department lower level from a concrete plaza deck between the main building and the parking garage. The proposed work through the TIPS cooperative purchasing program includes a new deck coating, various caulking services and partial‑depth repairs that might be uncovered during the project. The base proposal totals $45,000 with a recommended contingency of $2,500 to cover potential additional partial‑depth repairs.
Staff said the plaza deck did not receive a seal coat when it was constructed or rehabilitated in the early 2000s and that water has migrated through pavement cracks into lower levels; the expected maintenance cycle after the primary installation would be a recoat in seven to 10 years. City staff will prepare a budget amendment to the fiscal‑year 2025 capital improvement fund to fund the work and return it to the board for approval.
Bill 7071 was introduced and unanimously adopted; Alderman Patel moved consideration and the board gave unanimous consent to consider the ordinance on the day of introduction, then voted to adopt. No amendments were made on the floor. Staff indicated the work will go forward under the cooperative purchasing program after the city records the contract and finalizes funding.
