Central Plaza Improvements

Project Background

The Central Plaza Building Improvements include roof replacement, sidewalk/asphalt repairs and tree removal. The Central Plaza building is occupied by the Public Defender's Office.

The trees have up heaved the sidewalk and asphalt. The trees needed to be removed and replanted. The sidewalk will need to be replaced and the asphalt will need to be repaired where the tree damage was done. 

Central Plaza Roof has been leaking for several years; and the yearly patching is not keeping up with the leaks. A new roof will protect the building for an additional 20 years.
