Owosso Historical Commission approves Pleune contract to repair Castle radiators

At a July 13 meeting at Owosso City Hall, the Owosso Historical Commission voted to authorize staff to hire Pleune to repair radiators at the Owosso Castle. Commissioner Bill Moull moved the measure, Commissioner Rich Collins supported it, and the motion passed by voice vote.

Amy Fuller, Assistant City Manager, presented images and repair quotes for the Castle radiators and stated that the Pleune quote had been approved by the insurance company. The commission’s action authorizes staff to move forward with hiring Pleune and directs Commissioners Lorraine Weckwert and Steve Teich to select radiator colors for the work.

The commission did not record a roll-call vote; the motion was approved by voice vote. The transcript does not specify a contract amount or timeline; those details were not provided during the meeting. Staff will coordinate procurement and scheduling with Pleune and report back to the commission as needed.

The commission’s approval is limited to hiring Pleune for the radiator work as described in the quotes presented; no additional funding details were included in the meeting record. The Owosso Historical Commission will next meet on August 10, 2026.
