Summary
Commissioners described recent inspections and planning for the Roundhouse property, said an elevator passed inspection and officials hope to use HUD funds toward concrete floors and ADA doors.
County commissioners reported progress on renovations at the Roundhouse property and discussed planning with an architect and HUD funding considerations.
A commissioner said the elevator and electrical inspections passed and the fire marshal cleared the elevator, leaving HVAC finalization before the upstairs can open at limited capacity; the commissioner said the building would be usable with a 300-person limit once remaining work is complete.
Commissioners said they had met with architect CEC to prioritize work and preliminary cost estimates; they cited a HUD award of $750,000 available to the project but noted the county will not receive the full amount and that the funds "go in so many directions." Commissioners listed priorities including installing concrete floors in both buildings and ADA doors for downstairs entrances to create three usable buildings.
The commission also discussed outreach and cleanup plans and potential ribbon-cutting once HVAC work is finished. No formal vote or contract award related to the Roundhouse appeared in the public transcript portion of the meeting.
