Committee recommends up to about $44,000 to replace Lincoln Rescue Station roofs; insurance may cover gap
Summary
The Purchasing Committee recommended awarding a roof-replacement contract for the Lincoln Rescue Station to M Barbosa and Sons with a not-to-exceed figure near $44,000; staff said bids exceeded the previously approved amount and that an insurance claim and ARPA funds may cover the difference.
The Purchasing Committee recommended awarding a roof-replacement contract for the Lincoln Rescue Station in Albion to M Barbosa and Sons with a not-to-exceed figure close to $44,000.
Chair said the building has two roof areas — a flat membrane and an asphalt-shingled roof — and that the shingled roof required an emergency repair in the last year. Staff said bids came in higher than the amount previously approved at the finance meeting. The committee was told staff expects some insurance reimbursement and may use ARPA funds to cover the difference so both roof areas could be replaced; otherwise the asphalt roof would be prioritized.
Committee paperwork cited a not-to-exceed amount of $44,003.25. During discussion a committee member referenced $44,325 when making the motion; the chair read the motion calling for an award to M Barbosa and Sons not to exceed $44,003.25. A motion to recommend the award was seconded and the committee voted in favor.
The recommendation now goes to the town council for final approval; the transcript records the committee’s recommendation but not the council’s decision, insurance estimate, or final contract documents.
