Crawford council to seek demolition cost estimates for damaged Balloon Building
Summary
After reviewing a bid to reattach the roof, the council voted to explore demolition costs for the Balloon Building and directed staff to return with estimates.
City officials reviewed a bid to reattach the roof on the Balloon Building and discussed removing the structure entirely. Following that discussion, Council President Christopher Dean moved to "explore the costs for demolition of the building," and the motion carried.
Council members did not approve demolition at this meeting; instead they authorized staff to obtain cost estimates for demolition so the council can weigh repair versus removal at a future meeting. The minutes do not include a demolition estimate or contractor names, only that the council approved pursuing cost information.
The council recorded no votes opposing the motion to seek estimates; staff were asked to report back with cost options and any regulatory or disposal considerations.
