Council approves final exterior repairs, painting and tile work at Tabernacle
Summary
Council approved roughly $23,200 in additional work to finish Tabernacle exterior repairs (tower roof patching/painting, entry tile repairs, underside painting). Staff said work will wrap up in weeks and would be funded from general fund cash transfers.
Council approved added exterior work at the Tabernacle on Aug. 21 to finish remaining repairs and cosmetic work after contractors encountered more joint repairs than expected.
Public works staff described three priority items: waterproofing and patching the tower roof (including replacing missing metal pieces), repairing and stabilizing the decorative entry tiles, and painting underside/tin areas and miscellaneous trims. The mayor commented the contractor had done high‑quality work and even performed additional small tasks to improve appearance, but these three items were not included in the original scope.
Council member discussion noted the mayor’s negotiated reductions for one tile repair and recommended proceeding to complete the project. A motion to approve the added work passed by voice vote.
What happens next: Staff will schedule the contractor to finish these discrete items; council authorized using available general fund cash transfers to pay the additional cost so the project can be completed promptly.
