GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                                                    17 OCTOBER 2016

               (e)     This is also evidence of termite workings present on the northern face of this section of the
                       wall that is common with the kitchen and the raised dining area.
               (f)     The floor coverings in the kitchen and the raised dining area near the kitchen should not be
                       removed unless samples are taken and analysed in order to ascertain whether or not they
                       contain asbestos.
                       This is a precautionary measure for any areas that have vinyl sheeting laid prior to 1990.
               (f)     The kitchen is at a stage that it would be prudent to replace same at the time the asbestos
                       containing products are removed.
               (xi). | STAGE AREA, ASSOCIATED ROOMS & STAIRS:
               (a)     The room to the south eastern corner of the stage area and which is located in the south
                       eastern corner of the original hall is exhibiting evidence of water penetration. This can be
                       addressed at the time the rainwater downpipe outside of this area is repaired after the
                       chamfer boards are reinstated on the southern external wall.

               (b)     The stairs that lead down from the east of the stage to the servery area, should be
                       reassessed and made safe in relation to the rises and goings etc.

               (XII).  STORAGE ROOM & LOFT ABOVE (South western corner):

               (a)     The store room to the lower south western corner of the building and which is located under
                       the upper south western storage loft, was not accessed at the time of this inspection as it
                       was locked and the RSL doesn’t have a key for this storage room.

               3.006   INTERIOR OF THE ROOF SPACE & CEILING:

               (a)     The roof space over the north eastern corner of the main roof to the building is exhibiting
                       the effects of significant damage caused by subterranean termites.
                       This area is generally confined to the north eastern hip and valley section of the main roof,
                       however there are other areas that are exhibiting the effects of termite infestation/damage.
                       These areas include but are not limited to some cripple rafters over the female toilet area,
                       the VJ pine ceiling over female toilets, the bottom of the northern gable area, the eastern
                       gable section to the east of this north eastern hip and valley area and to the trim to the
                       southern side of the ceiling over the projector room, but not limited to these areas.

                       The damage to the hip board, valley rafter and the cripple and creeper rafters is a significant
                       structural item that will require repair as soon as possible, but before the summer storm
                       season.

               (b)     The repair work is not particularly difficult for a competent builder/tradesman and is but
                       only a small part of the building as a whole.

                       IT IS CRITICAL THAT NO ONE WALKS ON THE ROOF ABOVE THIS AREA, AS THEY WILL
                       COLLAPSE PART OF THIS SECTION OF THE ROOF.

                                                                                                            15

                                                                                                           Page 39 of 67
