The old asphalt shingles are/were or indeterminate age (old) and needed to be redone before it started to leak. Replaced asphalt shingles and metal with the metal with metal staying closer to something historically appropriate. The original roof was 1/2"-3/4” Cedar Shake shingles. Only one layer so the metal roof was put overtop of the shingles. Carlton Hopkins came to the council meeting on July 18 to speak about the project under public comment.
