Mayor Tim Harris told the Beardstown City Council on July 2, 2024 that the Public Works building at 1205 Bay Street suffered roof damage from high winds and that an adjuster advised the roof was a total loss.
Harris also reported that street work associated with the city's sewer project is progressing. The minutes do not include a timetable, cost estimate or insurer information for repairs; those details were not specified in the recorded text.
Alderwoman Lisa Buhlig and Alderwoman Mary Davis asked that the contractor keep work areas clean and mowed while work continues. The transcript records these requests but does not show a formal directive or enforcement action attached to them.
The council received routine department reports earlier in the meeting, including water, police and fire summaries; separate code enforcement and zoning officer reports were attached to the minutes. No public comments were recorded at the meeting.
The meeting adjourned at 6:37 p.m.
