Library board reports ceiling debris; council recommends masonry evaluation
Summary
Library board member Connie Lind told the council that sand and debris are falling from the library ceiling during heavy truck traffic or strong winds and recommended a brick mason evaluate the building; councilmember Sara Jane Douglas supported obtaining an evaluation.
Connie Lind told the Agency City Council on March 13 that sand and debris have been falling from the library ceiling when large trucks pass the building or during strong winds. Lind presented photographs and a cup containing the debris as evidence and asked the council to have the building examined.
Councilmember Sara Jane Douglas recommended that the city secure an evaluation from a brick mason to determine the cause and needed repairs. The council did not take immediate formal action to fund repairs at the meeting; Lind asked that a mason be asked to evaluate the building and the matter may return on a future agenda with cost and repair options.
Separately, the library board reported accepting the resignation of Lisa Kent and appointed Patrick Short to fill the vacancy; the council later approved the appointment.
The council did not provide a timeline for a masonry inspection during the March 13 meeting.
