North and South branches to get roof, HVAC and accessibility work
Summary
Staff reported a facility assessment led to recommended updates: North will receive window tinting, a replacement hot-water heater and HVAC balancing; South will get a roof recoating and a large HVAC replacement that requires a crane and off-hours work.
Library staff reviewed recent facility-assessment findings and described maintenance and repair work planned at the North and South branches. For North, recommended work includes new window tinting to reduce heat, a roof-access ladder installation and a replacement hot-water heater; staff said HVAC balancing will be scheduled after replacement work.
South Garland, a building the city purchased (formerly a Food Lion), faces a longer list of repairs: staff reported a roof recoating rather than full replacement based on cost and timing, and an on-order HVAC unit that will need crane installation during off-hours. Staff said the facilities team and contractor McKinstry determined the work-plan that best balanced longevity, cost and disruption to service.
