The architect hired to design the new roof at Bay City Hall is calling for an independent assessment after dozens of newly installed terra cotta tiles flew from the top of the historic building on Wednesday. It’s the second time this year that strong winds have dislodged tiles at City Hall, 301 Washington Ave. in downtown Bay City. The tiles were found smashed on the ground following Wednesday’s storm that produced wind gusts as high as 65 mph, according to the National Weather Service. Bay City Clerk Dana Muscott said clean-up began almost immediately and the cost to repair the damage is covered under warranty. She added that City Hall did not sustain any damage beyond the falling tiles and no one was injured.
