Ottawa school board approves 2.5 million settlement and roof bids
After a civil suit, the Ottawa school board voted to settle for 2.5 million with Manning Construction. It then accepted low bids to repair Garfield and Lincoln roofs and directed a safety analysis of Garfield by Wayne Davis’ firm at 9,600. Officials noted substructure issues and potential extra costs up to 150,000 dollars for Lincoln removal. The settlement limits further litigation while attorney Norris reviews options for recourse.
