Museum Roof On Hold Until Spring
Monday’s Supervisors’
Administrative Committee meeting heard a disappointing update on the Amador County Museum
Re-roofing project. The Amador County Historical Society, in agreement with
John F. Otto, the contractor for the project, said the project would more
likely take 60 days rather than the original 30 days suggested in the bid and
that the project should be postponed until May or June due to the weather. Delays
in delivery of the metal roofing for the project are another factor in the
decision to delay the project. Although disappointed, Supervisor Louis Boitano
agreed that completion of the project could be jeopardized by anticipated El
Nino winter this year, which could present safety issues to the workers as well
as complications with the project. The contractor will be required to tarp the
roof as needed to protect the Museum from the weather.
