Fairhope, Alabama
WAV Architects has requested pre-qualification applications from contractors for repairs and maintenance to the exterior of the 72,000 square foot library, with an estimated cost of "under $500K."
The pre-qualifying procedure is intended to identify responsible and competent prime contract bidders relative to the requirement of the project.
Unusual (modern) building techniques and materials require highly specialized experience and a general contractor for project coordination and oversight, according to the architect Mac Walcot.
The building has been plagued with roof leaks, stucco and other problems since its completion in 2007; it has been damaged by lightning/electrical surges at least twice (click).
The building is owned and maintained by the city but library operations are controlled by the Library Board, which operates separately under state law.
