Roof Replacement Project at 6500 Building to Begin Sept. 16

The project to replace the roof on the 6500 building will begin on September 16. This project is expected to take five weeks, barring unforeseen weather issues. There will be times when the work on the roof may be a little disruptive, as the roofing crew scoops and dumps rock, uses power tools, walks around on the roof and does the general replacement work. The roof will never be left open or unsealed overnight, so there will be no time the interior of the building will be subject to weather conditions or exposed to debris from this work. The first section of the roof to be replaced will be on the side where the mechanical room, graphics and the videotaping room are and work will progress "south" in 30-foot stages. The roofing contractor will use the area of the parking lot near the dumpsters as a staging area so be aware that some parking spaces in that area will not be available. If you have any questions or concerns during the roofing project, please contact Dustin Gean at ext. 14460 or at dgean@aea11.k12.ia.us. Thank you for your patience during this important project.
