New windows for White Rock City Hall

The City of White Rock will spend more than half a million dollars to replace windows in its city hall and library.

Council voted unanimously last week in support of the work, which is a component of renovations and upgrades that got underway earlier this year.

Weve been waiting a while for those, Mayor Wayne Baldwin said, following the council vote.

Windows were replaced in council chambers last February; tenders for the remaining windows closed Aug. 13.

In a Sept. 8 report to council, director of engineering and municipal operations Greg St. Louis recommends the work be awarded in two contracts totalling $528,000 ($654,100, including tax and contingency), with both going to Dubas Management & Construction.

The replacements are already included in the citys financial plan, St. Louis notes.

They along with a new roof on city hall expected complete by the end of the month are to increase efficiency of the new heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems in the two facilities.
