Board approves emergency roof quotes, license renewals and a slate of permits
Summary
The Board declared an emergency for roof repairs at the Hammond Police Department towers to solicit contractor quotes, approved renewal of amusement-device licenses for Anchor Inn and American Legion Post 232, and granted multiple right-of-way and special-event permits.
The Board declared an emergency to obtain quotes for roof repairs at two towers on the Hammond Police Department building after correspondence from Dean Button reported leaks. Staff described the leaks as creating a substantial issue in that part of the building and recommended swift action to solicit roofing contractors; the board approved proceeding to obtain quotes.
The controller's office requested renewal of amusement-device licenses for Anchor Inn and American Legion Post 232, which the board approved. Engineering staff (Mark, speaker 10) presented three right-of-way permit requests (Salier, A. Calhoun driveway apron, and a Nipsco gas meter repair) and recommended approval; the board concurred. The Board also approved multiple special-event street-closure requests, including a family reunion, a bar grand opening and a July 4 block party, with the Chair asking police to check for any conflicts with summer-school activities for one event.
These items were treated as routine consent and action items in the meeting transcript.
