Council approves roof-replacement contract for New Carlisle wastewater plant
Summary
The City of New Carlisle council voted to award a contract to replace roofs on two buildings at the wastewater treatment plant after receiving multiple bids; the low bid was $68,475 with a not-to-exceed total of $74,000.
The City of New Carlisle City Council voted June 15 to award a contract for roof replacement at its wastewater treatment plant.
Council introduced Resolution 2026-12R and approved awarding the work to the low bidder. Council packet materials and discussion at the meeting identified two higher bids of about $98,000 and $105,000; the selected proposal was $68,475 and the resolution sets a not-to-exceed cap of $74,000 to allow for incidentals.
Councilmember Miss Agelson moved to approve the resolution; Vice Mayor Shammy seconded. During discussion, council members clarified that the work is a full roof replacement, not merely a repair or paint job, and that the contractor would remove roofing down to the metal deck and replace it according to the project specifications. After brief questions, the council approved the resolution by roll-call vote.
The resolution covers replacement of the raw building and the old lab building roofs at the City of New Carlisle wastewater treatment plant. Council did not identify any additional funding sources during the public discussion; the city manager noted the cost comparison to the higher alternate bids when explaining the recommendation.
With approval, city staff will proceed with contracting and scheduling the replacement work under the not-to-exceed amount. The resolution was introduced and acted on the same evening, per the council’s agenda.
