Sebring staff to seek roofing contract for SunTrust building; council hears cost, warranty options
Summary
Council heard a project update on the former SunTrust building: staff said repair estimates are about $182,100 with a 10-year warranty while full replacement is estimated near $600,000 with a 32-year warranty; staff will return with a roofing contract recommendation.
City staff told the Sebring City Council that the next step for the downtown SunTrust building will be to solicit a roofing contract, and presented two options with cost and warranty differences.
Staff said a repair option — which would be based on a vendor-prepared specification — was estimated at approximately $182,100 with a 10-year warranty. A full roof replacement was estimated at around $600,000 with a 32-year warranty. Staff said repair work would include warranty terms tied to the repair scope and that the replacement option carried a longer warranty and higher cost.
Council discussion indicated interest in seeing vendor proposals and warranty details. The city administrator said staff would bring a recommendation and contract proposal to a future council meeting to address roofing and then follow with air-conditioning work for the building.
No formal council action was taken at this meeting; staff will seek competitive bids and present options for council consideration at a later date.
