BENTON — The Benton City Council unanimously passed a motion at Monday night’s meeting to seek bids for a new roof at City Hall.

Commissioner Lee Messersmith, who has a background in construction, mentioned to the council about a type of roof that might be a good fit for City Hall.

When asked by Commissioner Cathy Ann Garavalia about the cost of this kind of roof, Messersmith said he was only familiar with it and did not know how much it would cost.

Mayor Fred Kondritz told the council since this is in the bid process, the council can continue discussions about the roof if and when bids come in.
