PLYMOUTH — The Plymouth Board of Public Works and Safety opened bids for the demolition of The Pointe Apartments at their meeting on Monday.
The action culminates a year of back-and-forth discussions of the property between the city and owners after an order to vacate in July of last year. While repairs were attempted on the structure, to date, they have not met code standards or passed an inspection by Plymouth Building Commissioner Dennis Manuwal.
Two bids were received by the city. Hunter Transit bid $55,101 for the demolition, and Beaver Excavating submitted a bid of $78,000 for the demolition alone and $97,500 to include removal.
Manuwal asked to take the bids under advisement for him to review them. He also told the board that there were not adequate funds in the current year’s budget for the demolition, and he would be seeking an additional appropriation for the work.
