Key Colony Beach mayor and building official outline timeline for City Hall bathroom repairs
Summary
Mayor Joey Raspe and Building Official Tony Loreno said temporary restroom trailers are in use while sewer repairs are finished and bathroom renovation work — including pin piles, rebar and concrete pours — should be completed in about three weeks; plumbing lines will be updated and the bathroom footprint will be brought up to code.
Mayor Joey Raspe and the city’s building official told residents at a Dec. 16 townhall that temporary restroom trailers are available while crews finish work on City Hall bathrooms and related plumbing.
Building Official Tony Loreno said sewer line repairs are complete and that current construction is "down to the last nine pin piles," with no settlement found in the foundation. He said contractors have provided engineering inspection reports that the city has passed to the project engineer and that work on rebars, pin piles and concrete pours is expected to finish within the next three weeks. Loreno said the bathroom renovation will use the former floor plan but will be upgraded to meet current code requirements and that the city has selected an architectural firm for the City Hall design.
Mayor Raspe noted temporary restroom trailers are open for use in the Marble Hall parking lot while the bathroom work proceeds. Loreno said the contractor provided the trailer “for a great rate” through White Marlin Marina. Resident Craig Greene asked about an external water line he had observed supplying the bathrooms; Loreno confirmed the plumbing network will be updated and supply lines moved to the correct locations.
Commissioner Doug Colonell and Loreno discussed construction choices made to limit costs; Colonell observed that avoiding the use of foam to fill voids had saved money, a point Loreno agreed with. City officials did not present a final cost estimate at the townhall.
No formal action or vote was taken at the meeting. The project’s near‑term milestone is the expected completion of the current structural work in about three weeks; officials said further City Hall design work will proceed separately.
