War Memorial Library Buildings
We’ve received an engineering assessment for the War Memorial Library Buildings – The Library, Little Theatre and the Café.
The Library has received a Detailed Seismic Assessment (DSA) and has a New Building Standard (NBS) of between 40 and 45%.
Geotechnical work is needed to help us to understand what strengthening we need to do and is scheduled from Monday 16 September to Thursday 19 September.
The work will include drilling and it will be noisy and disruptive, so the Library will close on Monday 16 September. We’ll be working with Health & Safety to assess the noise and will make a decision about Tuesday – Thursday closer to the time. We’ll let you know.
The Little Theatre has received an initial desk-top seismic assessment (ISA) and has a rating of 15%. An Earthquake Prone Notice has been placed on the entrances. A decision has been made to keep the theatre open, while we wait for the detailed seismic assessment to be completed.
Our staff will now work with people who have made bookings to let them know that it has been classified as earthquake prone, and find alternative options for people who wish to move facilities. In the meantime, no new bookings will be taken for the theatre.
Fellow Café has received a rating of 70% and will remain open during the geotechnical work.
