Summary

Board members described condensation-related wet spots, a new sump pump, and masonry/stone joint failures at the courthouse; they discussed contacting contractors (Midwest Restoration) and possible repairs ahead of colder weather.

Board member Andy (S8) raised a wet spot near the probation area and recommended insulating piping or areas where condensation had caused damage after temperature variance from air conditioning. He said a new sump pump was recently installed and that some tiles had been ruined by moisture.

Members also discussed visible loose stone and degraded mortar around window sills; an architect/structural engineer who inspected scaffolding warned that stone border joints have failed and need repair to avoid freeze-thaw damage. The board suggested contacting Midwest Restoration or local contractors for inspection and estimates and asked staff to coordinate follow-up.
