The Overton County jail roof project moving forward after the county commission approved the work Monday.
A $94,250 project that will repair aging infrastructure over the jail cell portion of the Justice Center. The some 20-year-old roof has experienced leak issues. A total of four bids were considered with the $94,000 price tag recommended for approval.
The county commission designated federal COVID money to pay for the project last year. The work replaces about a quarter of the overall roof of the Justice Center. The county plans to repair the overall roof in increments.
