The council also authorized repair work to be done on the Hoffman Hall north wall and acceptance of a bid from Darold Berger Masonry, of Waukon, Iowa, in the amount of $16,600. The work  would be completed yet under 2017-2018 capital funds, according to Parks and Recreation Director Mike Ulrich. Berger Masonry provided work at the new library and, according to City Planner Garth Frable, the company’s workmanship was excellent and recommended, especially since it is able to do the job still this year.

Sun Environmental Group, of Waukesha, reviewed the issue at Hoffman Hall, finding that the 4-inch face brick veneer wall is out of plumb to a degree that has resulted in a minor safety concern. 

To resolve the problem, the work will include removal and disposal of brick, removal and reinstallation of stone, cleaning of existing stone, replacing brick, installing insulation and through wall flashing, tuck pointing of joints in the stone, etc.
