The city of Hollister will be pitching in to make repairs to Hollister Police Department’s roof.
City Administrator Rick Zeigenfuss said he and Deputy Administrator Denise Olmstead met with Hollister Police Chief Schmidt in regards to a continued roof leak on the building. Currently, over $50,000 has been spent trying to correct the issue, caused by expansion and contraction.
Ziegenfuss said the plan to fix the roof is to overlay a membrane over the top of the piece of the existing roof. The cost for the procedure will be $60,000. The membrane will cause water to be shunted off to the side, protecting areas of the roof which expand from possible leakage.
