New roof

Coulee Dam’s town council voted last Wednesday night to replace the roof on town hall.

The bid, one of four, was won by local contractor DWK Fowler Construction.

Fowler’s bid of $60,312, was the lowest bid. The next lowest bid was $84,006 by Claw Construction.

Public Works Director Barry Peacock told the council that the bid materials involved in the Fowler bid met specifications and he recommended acceptance of that bid. The council quickly agreed.

Police officials have long complained about their corner of the town hall building leaking.
