This project wil{ replace windows which are at the end of their useful life. Residents have experienced difficulty using the open/close mechanism by not being able readily open windows or close them for a tight seal. Also, replacement parts for the mechanisms have also been difficult to obtain. The new windows will be highly energy efficient and low maintenance will hold down operating costs. During our condition survey of all the Congregate Housing by the Building Official and the City's Lead Building Maintenance foreman, the condition of these windows received many negative comments from the residents. Most of the comments on the condition of the windows were directed at problems working the mechanisms and the drafts from poor window seals. This project will help ensure the Congregate Housing remains in good operating conditions for the residents.
