Funding Issues

Capitol Building Exterior Security

A consultant study completed with one-time funds appropriated to the Capitol Preservation Board during the 2014 G.S. looked at the exterior security of Capitol Hill. The consultants were asked to estimate the cost of installing bollards around the campus to keep vehicles away from the buildings. The consultants estimated the cost at $2.7 million. In addition, the CPB has estimated a cost of $0.1 million to improve the lift gates at street entrances.

Capitol Hill Interior Security

The Department of Public Safety recently completed an in-depth study of the interior security of the Capitol campus. The study examined camera locations, camera types, alarms, card readers, and installation costs. To address the issues identified by the study would cost approximately $600,000. If this item is funded, additional funding will be needed in the Department of Public Safety for personnel to monitor additional cameras.
