Hayland Township reviewed an inspection of the town hall floors by Schlenker Construction following concerns about soft flooring. The inspection found 2x4s on chunks of concrete in good condition but noted that the concrete is sinking, causing gaps and soft spots; temporary shims were installed near the mini-split and map area. Schlenker Construction recommended exterior drainage and grading work such as adding dirt and plastic/rock landscaping, and identified a more expensive option to open the floor and build a new or updated foundation.A decision had not been made at the time of the agenda, indicating the township is weighing scope and cost for a structural/foundation project. This presents an opportunity for contractors, engineers, and building envelope specialists to propose assessments, design options, and phased remediation strategies.

Issues include water flowing and sitting under the building in certain locations, suggesting drainage and site work may be part of the solution.
