Agenda Text
The Board is requested to authorize the County Manager to enter into an $71,000 contract to install a Partial Roof Replacement at Durham County Southwest Library. The approved funding to support this project uses Pay-As-You-Go capital funds allocated to support the County’s Roofing Life Cycle Replacement program.
The roof of the Durham County Southwest Library is approaching the end of its warranty period and is showing signs of aging. As the roof ages, it becomes increasingly susceptible to leaks and other forms of damage. The library's roof has served its purpose well over the years, but it is now at a critical juncture where proactive measures are necessary to prevent potential issues. Given the roof's age and the expiration of its warranty, it is crucial to replace it to safeguard the library's infrastructure.
The selected vendor, Wayne Roofing & Sheet Metal Co. has worked successfully on similar size projects among other NC local jurisdictions.
Alignment with Strategic Plan: Sustainable Infrastructure and Environment by maintaining, protecting, and improving natural and built systems to support a sustainable community.
Resource Persons: Motiryo Keambiroiro, Director of General Services, Shawn Swiatocha, Assistant Director of General Services, and Lee Duncan, Project Facilitator of General Services.
County Manager’s Recommendation: The County Manager recommends that the Board authorize the County Manager to execute a contract with Wayne Roofing & Sheet Metal Co for $71,000 with Roofing CIP funds.
