Albritton-Williams chosen to do repair work to Armory

County commissioners on Tuesday accepted a bid from Albritton-Williams contractors out of Tallahassee to do needed repair work to the Armory in Apalachicola.

Albritton-Williams was one of three companies to bid on the project, which includes replacing the roof on the one story building connected to the Armory.

The roof on that building is causing some major damage to the building including to the main electrical box.

The company will also install emergency lighting and a fire alarm system in the 108-year-old building.

There is much more work that needs to be done but these projects will use up much the county’s 250 thousand dollar budget for the armory repairs.

Albritton Williams was the low bidder for the project.

They will receive 176,500 dollars for the work.

Commissioners plan to renovate the armory so it can serve as a local convention center.
