Looks as if they are finally getting around to repairing the damage done by the windstorm last April. Good thing there was no rush about it. Considering the roof came off in the first windstorm after construction had been completed, I'm glad the repairs won't cost the city anything.:
Public Safety Center Roof Repairs to Begin
Within the next week work will begin on roof repairs at the Public Safety Center. The work will be performed by Contegra Construction, the contractor that built the building. The repair cost is being paid by Travelers’ Insurance Company, the contractor’s Builders Risk carrier. Much of the remaining roof will need to be removed as part of the reconstruction process, but the final product will look nearly identical to the original. The roof structure will be strengthened as part of the reconstruction. All original warranties will remain in place after reconstruction. Interior repairs will also be done as the roof work is completed.
This work is being done by Contegra Construction and Travelers’ Insurance Company at no cost to the City. Some parking areas at the building will be closed during construction, but the Police Department will be fully operational the entire time. The public is asked to follow directional signs that will be placed on site to direct visitors and to please not enter the construction areas or interfere with workers on site. All work is expected to be completed in about 12 weeks, weather permitting.
The building was damaged by a violent storm in April of this year. Other nearby buildings were also damaged, as were other City buildings at Cedar Lake and the Southeast Wastewater Treatment Plant.
