Renovation of a municipal facility in Buckhannon, West Virginia. Completed plans call for the renovation of a municipal facility.

As of August 5, 2022, project was awarded to TK Elevator Corporation, awarded amount is $58,935.83. A scope of work will be provided during the pre-bid meeting and may also be obtained online at www.upshurcounty.org. Questions can be directed to the County Commission office by calling (304) 472-0535 x.3, or emailing Cindy Hughes at cmhughes@upshurcounty.org The Upshur County Commission reserves the right to reject any and all bids, in whole or in part, and waive any informality during the bidding process. The existing lift, located on the exterior of the Courthouse, was installed approximately 16 years ago and due to years of being exposed to inclement weather, the equipment has deteriorated. The lift has rusted in several areas due to being open to the elements and the electrical components have begun to fail leading to many complaints from those using the lift when it breaks down. Recently, the Maintenance Department patched a hole in the bottom of the lift and made repairs to the electrical door system. The Upshur County Commission wishes to remove the existing, deteriorating, and malfunctioning handicap access lift and replace with an enclosed lift to better serve and accommodate all patrons. Clear panels are best suited for this project as they will provide protection from the environmental elements extending the life of the unit while also allowing users to have a direct sightline to the front door of the Courthouse and prevent claustrophobia. Clear inserts will also compliment the aesthetics of the existing building and be less noticeable than a fully enclosed unit.
