Overview: Performing major maintenance on the Wallace Parking Deck is necessary to extend the useful life of the facility and continue to provide a safe environment for patrons to park.
Over this summer, staff will work with Kimley-Horn (Town's Engineering Consultant for this project) to develop plans and an estimated cost for the repairs. Kimley-Horn will also design and provide a cost estimate for an option to add parking on the top level of the parking deck. Town staff will return to the Council in Fall 2018 to present the design plans and request direction to either only repair the deck, or repair it and include the additional parking option.

This omission allowed for water infiltration into and through the top level concrete slab and beams, resulting in deterioration of the structure and degradation of components and systems within the garage as confirmed by a 2012 Condition Report by Kimley-Horn. Over the life of the Wallace Parking Deck, maintenance and repairs have been implemented in limited locations to address water infiltration and other issues.
* A 2015 Condition Report by MHA Works confirmed the structure can still support additional parking levels.
* The repair plans will include identifying needed repairs from a review of utilities and the condition of the elevator, turning the first floor office into a...
