New flooring installed in third floor of town hall late September-early October

Posted by Fred Steiner on September 14, 2014 - 5:31pm

A new floor is coming to the third floor of the Bluffton town hall.

As a result of the spring water damage that occurred to the town hall a new floor overlay is required. The village has reserved the last week in September through the first week in October for Diller Flooring to install the new floor, according to Jamie Mehaffie, village administrator.

“They are updating their previous estimate to include the installation of a sound dampening membrane under the proposed tile floor to reduce the noise infiltration on the second floor,” said Mehaffie.
