According to Board documents, a 2019 inspection noted that there were “numerous spot failures to the substrate” with rust undercutting, rust bleed through and delaminated paint topcoat. The report recommended the repainting of the tower within 5 to 6 years.
The contract was awarded to Seven Brothers Painting, Inc., which submitted the lowest responsible bid. The cost for the project is included in the Village’s 24-25 budget.
