Project Scope : The existing Highland College Roof is 25 years old . This project will remove over 94 , 000 square feet of existing roofing materials down to the structural deck and replace with a new energy efficient roof . The replacement project will increase the overall performance of the building envelope , remove hazardous material , and reduce the facility condition index . For additional description please refer to the attached CD - 13 write up from the 2026 - 2027 LRBP Book . Project Highlights • The size of the roof area and scale of the project is the contributing factor for the budget of this request . Current Challenges There are 2 issues with the existing roofing system for this building . First , 100 % of the 25 - year - old membrane has exceeded its expected life and has had leaks in multiple locations for the past 4 years . Temporary repairs have been made for the recurring leaks but are no longer effective to stop the progression of water infiltration . Secondly , the insulation , installed in the mid 1980 ’ s , does not meet the requirements of today ’ s energy codes . Postponing replacement will cause accelerated maintenance attention and create risk for the building and its assets . Proposed Solution This project will remove over 94 , 000 square feet of existing roofing materials down to the structural deck and replace with a system chosen to provide a long - lasting solution and maximum energy efficiency . The replacement project will increase the overall performance of the building envelope , give opportunity to remove hazardous materials , and reduce the facility condition index .
