The station was built in 2001, but the roof over the truck bay has visible defects where fasteners have penetrated through the roofing membrane.  Leakage is occurring in this area.  The masonry was not sealed when the building was constructed and it is beginning to leach calcium deteriorating the concrete block and mortar.  The bid included an alternate to seal the masonry and staff is recommending Council include the alternate in this contract to avoid further deterioration.

The project scope includes removal of the existing 15,246 square foot two-ply bitumen membrane in hot asphalt roof down to the light weight insulation over concrete (LWIC) roof and replacing it with a cold process built up asphalt roof.  The current roof was severely damaged during the April 13th tornado peeling back the membrane allowing water to pool in the layer between the roof deck and the membrane.  Leakage is also occurring in the facility.
 
Santa Fe Depot (flat roof portions) - $48,405
The project scope includes removal of the existing 936 square foot 3 ply hot felt membrane with gravel roof down to the deck and replacing it with a cold process built up asphalt roof.  The flat portions include the old baggage room now utilized as the art studio and the portico portion at the north end of the depot.  The current roof is over 20 years old and the overall condition of the roof is poor showing visible defects including deteriorated mastic in pitch pans, weathered and cracked caulk on counter flashing, and open lap seams.
