ROOF REPAIRB - JENRINS AIIDITORIUM AND REHLOR PARR BIIILDING It was reported that $4,000 had been budgeted for roof repairs to the Kehlor Park Building, but because the shingles are asbestos, it will cost between $8,000 and $10,000 to re-roof the building and dispose of the old shingles, which are considered a hazardous material. Mr. Saunders continued by stating that the addition to the building could be re-roofed and a new flashing installed around the chimney for approximately $825. Council direction was sought.
