01:36 PM -- Painting and Repairs in Capitol Basement
Mr. Lee explained that the wall behind the security area in the basement has been damaged because security personnel sit or lean against it. He would like to buy four-foot tall sheets of Lexan to affix to the walls behind the security area in order to protect the wall from further damage. He is hoping to make repairs to the wall and install the protective Lexan covering before the 2011 legislative session begins. Ms. Contiguglia expressed concern that Lexan can scratch and so it may need to be replaced shortly after installation. Mr. Nichols asked what the wall is made of and Mr. Lee said it is plaster drywall. Mr. Nichols suggested that Mr. Lee get frosted rather than clear Lexan because it won't show scratches as easily and so would not need to replaced as quickly. Ms. Sill asked several questions about the dimensions of the hallway where the security area is located. Mr. Lee said he has asked the security personnel not to lean on the wall, but because of their equipment and because of the narrow space, this has not been successful. Mr. Lee said he will look for frosted Lexan. Ms. Sill suggested that he consider installing padded, acoustical wall material.
