County commissioners reviewed multiple roof quotes and discussed how to fund ongoing maintenance for county buildings after recent storm damage.
Commissioner (speaker) reported receiving three to four roofing quotes and said a Fisher Roofing representative indicated some repairs might be covered under warranty. The speaker estimated the major roof work could be in the range of $50,000 to $75,000 as a rough figure, but emphasized bids were still pending and staff expected more detail at the next meeting.
Board members discussed the age and condition of county buildings, including a shop built in the 1950s with rust and deferred maintenance. Commissioners debated funding approaches: continue with emergency-only repairs, create a sinking fund for scheduled maintenance, or include recurring maintenance in the annual budget.
Staff proposed assembling documentation about prior contractors, warranties and work history into a centralized binder. Commissioner members identified Holly and Chelsea as possible staff resources to research historical contracts and build that record. Fisher Roofing was cited as a company that could provide records showing past work and dates.
No formal board action was taken; commissioners asked staff to collect bids and records and return with estimates at the next meeting.
