At Tuesday’s St. James City Council meeting, the main topic of discussion was the bids received for the Community Building roof replacement project.
The city presented two options to bidders.
Option one was to repair the roof, sweep off the old stones on the roof, cover the existing roof with a barrier, and then cover the barrier with a rubber roof. Option two was the removal of the old roof to the decking and the replacement of damaged decking to fully replace the roof. Fully replacing the roof would add two layers of insulation and covering with rubber roofing.
