Commission hears public-works items: maintenance building roof repair estimates and cemetery drive repair request
Summary
County public-works staff recommended replacing a failing canopy and flat roof on a maintenance building, and the commission discussed a citizen request to repair a washed-out cemetery driveway on County Road 42.
Public-works staff reported building damage and recommended a capital repair on a county maintenance building where flashing failure and ponding on a metal canopy and flat roof have caused interior water damage.
Staff said the preferred fix is to replace the canopy and install a TPO-style membrane with a 25-year warranty; an initial single quote provided for a comparable roof at solid waste was cited at about $26,000. Commissioners asked staff to obtain three formal quotes and bring a recommendation to the next meeting; interior repairs will follow once the roof is secured.
Separately, the commission discussed a resident request to repair a cemetery driveway on County Road 42. County records do not show the cemetery on the maintained list, but public-works staff found a 2012 entry showing rock material provided. The commission said it could deem the site an active public cemetery, which authorizes up to $1,500 per occurrence per year and up to $10,000 per 10-year period for maintenance under the county policy; staff were asked to gather more information and return with an estimate and documentation for the commission to consider at the next meeting.
