Roof fix on Thurdsay’s agenda for Peachtree City Council

By JOHN MUNFORD

A bid to replace part of the roof at Neely Fire Station will be considered by the Peachtree City Council at its meeting Thursday night.

The bid of $32,753 from S. Garrett and Company of Carrollton, Ga. is $8,708 over cost but that money would come from the city’s contingency fund for public improvement projects.

The building has been plagued by leaks after multiple attempts to patch it, fire officials said. Leaks continue to erode at the carpet and have damaged ceiling tiles, bookcases and books.

A local architect, John Reeves, prepared the roof design at no cost to the city. He previously designed the burn building used by the fire department for training.

In other business, council will consider a changed resolution to use $600,000 in financing to construct an auto shop. Also on the table will be adding an additional half-day holiday for all employees for Christmas eve.
