After returning from 13th August’s midnight call, a crew of Marietta firefighters discovered the kitchen area on the second floor of their fire station at 301 Putnam St. had been flooded. There was water pouring out of the ceiling and all over the floor. Tuesday morning, the crew spent their day mopping up the mess, which included soaked ceiling tiles and other debris. Tuesday's incident was at least the third time a portion of the city hall roof has sprung a major leak during heavy rains since Buxton Roofing began the project in mid-July. The first two leaks occurred in the flat roof area above the second floor city police offices and hallway in the main section of the city hall building. One of those leaks also found its way into the police dispatch office which forced that office to be moved into the much drier former city law director's office near the front of the building. City engineer Joe Tucker said "My understanding is that the roof was leaking around a roof drain that was plugged," Tucker said. "There was four inches of water standing on the roof over the fire department parking bays." A "scupper," or drainage opening supposed to be installed in the roof wall, would have provided some relief for the clogged roof drain, he said.
