Committee approves licensed contractor inspection for HHS roof after leaks reported
Summary
Following reports of interior leaks at the Health & Human Services building, the committee authorized county staff to hire a licensed, bonded roofing contractor to inspect damage and provide an estimate for repair or replacement.
The committee directed county staff to arrange for a licensed and bonded roofing contractor to inspect the Health & Human Services (HHS) roof and provide a recommended scope and cost for repair or replacement after staff reported interior leaking in an office.
Members discussed photos and a maintenance staff assessment noting localized areas where shingles had lifted and possible leaks tracking down rafters. Several members said the roof did not necessarily need full replacement immediately if targeted repairs would extend life, but the maintenance worker reported the roof looked worse from up on the roof than from ground‑level photos.
Blake Lisonbee moved to authorize a licensed, bonded contractor to inspect and provide a remediation estimate; Ron Stender seconded. The motion passed. Dan asked maintenance staff to contact contractors and obtain bonded estimates; the committee asked staff to prioritize temporary sealing where necessary to prevent further interior damage while the county evaluates full replacement timing and cost.
Committee members said they want a contractor's written assessment clarifying whether a targeted repair or a full replacement is the appropriate near‑term solution and a cost estimate for both options.
