Wall FlashiUl! Installation-City Hall <br /> <br />Mr. Clark stated the City Conncil authorized staff to hire a professional testing company <br />(Architectural Testing) to do water leak testing to determine the cause of the continual leak in the <br />lobby ceiling and Council conference room. Architectural Testing had determined that the cause <br />of the continual water infiltration was due to improper through wall flashing installation and <br />generally, poor workmanship. The flashing was not installed per contract specifications or <br />industry standards. Since the cause of the water infiltration was so apparent, the contractor on <br />site, Building Restoration, who did the removal of the stone, was hired to do the repairs for the <br />chimney area only. The contractor was able to do the repairs at a reduced amount because the <br />wall already had been removed due to the water leak investigation. The contractor has since <br />completed the repairs, meeting industry standards supplied by Architectural Testing with quality <br />workmanship. <br /> <br />He noted due to the results of the report, staff had also obtained two quotes to repair the through <br />wall flashing in areas known to have been improperly installed, The quotes were separated into <br />two parts. The first quote was to redo the through wall flashing above the Council conference <br />
