EOC gets grant for new roof


            The Emergency Operations center at the Apalachicola Airport will soon have a new roof.

The Emergency Management Office has received a 98 thousand dollar grant through which the federal government will pay about 74 thousand dollars and the county will pay 24 thousand to install a new hip roof on the EOC building.

The county’s portion will come from the capitol outlay budget.

The new roof will be designed to withstand 140 mile an hour winds.

The project is definitely needed.

Emergency Management Director Pam Brownell said when it rains now it drips on her head.


The project will be bid out so local businesses will be able to apply for the work.
