WEST FRANKFORT, IL – (William McPherson, West Frankfort Gazette.  Please Click on the link for the full story.  Here is an excerpt below.)

The city council granted approval to repair a portion of the roof at the West Frankfort Outlet Mall at last Tuesday’s regular city council meeting.

Steve Phelps out of Fairfield gave the City two options, one that would lay down custom-cut fiber board and an additional layer of silicon sealant. The cost to do the entire roof would be $525,650—to just do Vanity Fair, which equates to roughly half of the mall’s roof space would be $248,000. One concern with this option was the amount of additional weight it would put upon the mall building.

The city council approved the second option at the recommendation of Business Incubator Don Gass, opting to only cover the Vanity Fair section of the roof, which also covers the entrance to the mall. Jordan added that 95 percent of the problems with the outlet mall’s current roof would be fixed with just fixing the Vanity Fair portion of the roof. Jordan also said that the contractor said that if wanted, he could come back at any time and apply the spray sealant to the remaining portion of the roof, adding that he could come back as soon as next year at the same price point without the need for an additional bid.
