Council record: ADG recommends Joiner Sheet Metal and Roofing for City Hall roof; bid reported lower than prior approval
Summary
ADG recommended Joiner Sheet Metal and Roofing, prequalified by the Illinois Capital Development Board, to replace the older section of City Hall's roof; a bid figure was reported in the record and described as lower than a previously approved amount.
At the meeting, Speaker 3 relayed ADG’s recommendation to contract Joiner Sheet Metal and Roofing for replacement of an older portion of the City Hall roof.
Speaker 3 said the firm is prequalified by the Illinois Capital Development Board and would remove the existing system and install a different roofing system with insulation and a new edge system. The proposal was described as targeting the older portion of the building (over 20 years old).
A pricing figure was reported in the record as $89,996 and described by the speaker as "about $20,000 less than the board approved" earlier. Speaker 3 said late bids were received but were not considered because materials differed, and noted that because the board previously authorized the work two meetings earlier, the project will move forward without a new formal vote at this meeting.
What’s next: staff will proceed with contractor onboarding and the city said crews have taken interim measures (sealing cracks and removing water) while scheduling the work. The council did not take a new binding vote at this meeting because prior authorization exists.
