Half-million for school roof work

Clarkston school roofs built in 1984 are getting a makeover.
Board of Education approved $548,925 from the district Building and Site Fund to replace 25-year-old metal roofs on Andersonville, Bailey Lake, Clarkston, North Sashabaw and Pine Knob elementary schools. The project also includes work at Springfield Plains Elementary, Clarkston Junior High and Clarkston High School.
Contracts were awarded to low bidders Newton-Crane Roofing, Ann Arbor Roofing, Esko Roofing, and Litz Roofing.
The district spends about $8.5 million out of a $81.3 million budget for building services.
