Makanda board approves $2,908 gutter and soffit repairs for community buildings
Summary
The Village of Makanda Board unanimously approved work to remove and replace soffit and fascia and to install a new 6" guttering system on the Pavilion and Community Center, and to add related work at Village Hall; total bid $2,908 with optional $225 savings if existing downspouts are reused.
The Village of Makanda Board of Trustees voted Aug. 5 to approve exterior repairs to the Pavilion and B.C. Ross Community Center and to add related gutter work at Village Hall. President Tina Shingleton presented a bid from Clover Roofing that quoted $2,908.00 to remove and replace aluminum soffit and fascia across the overhang and to install a new 6‑inch guttering system with downspouts; using existing downspouts would reduce the price by $225. "To remove and replace aluminum soffit & fascia system on entire overhang and install new 6" guttering system with downspouts cost is $2,908.00," the minutes record.
Trustee Wolff moved to proceed with the repairs and Trustee Ross seconded; a voice vote carried with all members present voting yes. The board also authorized a separate front‑entrance gutter repair and installation of splash guards at a quoted cost of $450. The board discussed adding gutter guards or other improvements to the Village Hall as part of the same work order to address longstanding drainage concerns.
The approved motion was procedural—directing staff to contract for the work—and the minutes do not list a specific start date for construction. The board recorded that Dan and village contacts would coordinate the work and that reusing existing downspouts would be pursued to lower the cost.
