Southington Hires Contractor For 3 SFD Roof/Renovation Projects

SOUTHINGTON, CT — In one simply motion, Southington officials recently approved roof/renovation projects at three Southington Fire Department firehouses.

The Southington Town Council voted 7-0 Feb. 27 to hire Bloomfield-based Millenium Builders Inc. to conduct three separate projects for the SFD. They include:

• A roof replacement project at SFD's Station 5, located at 72 River St. for $177,177.

• Renovations at SFD's Co. 2, located at 130 W. Main St. for $46,004.

• Renovations at SFD's Station 3 located at 35 Clark St. for $43,388.

Council members did not discuss the projects at their last meeting and, simply, approved hiring the contractor for those projects at the recommendations of town staff.

Southington Town Manager Mark J. Sciota, during his report to the council, said the roof project is part of a town-wide initiative to replace and modernize the roofs of municipal buildings as needed.

He said the approved funds also include contingency funds should the projects go in overbudget.
