BACKGROUND:
The Joliet Area Historical Museum located at 204 N Ottawa St. was built in 1909. Last year we were able to replace the roof and eliminate the continued leaks that were occurring in the gallery. The next step is to repair the water damage on the ceiling in the gallery. This project will require scaffolding to access the ceiling because a lift is too heavy for the subfloor. We estimate this project to occur at the end of 2025 during a time when the museum is minimally impacted. This project is estimated to take a few weeks to complete. All colors will remain the same.

CONCLUSION:
The City of Joliet is seeking approval to award payment for the Joliet Area Historical Museum Gallery Ceiling Repair and Painting Project. Staff contacted three vendors to obtain proposals for the scope of work, three returned proposals. Staff is recommending the purchase be approved and awarded to Cosgrove Construction Inc. in the amount of $69,275.00.?Original projected estimates were $75,000.00.?The 2025 Capital Improvements Building & Grounds fund provides funding for this repair project (Org 30020010, Obj 557300, $69,275.00).
