BERLIN — After a bid on proposed renovations to the Berlin Fire Station came back at more than twice the original estimate, the Berlin City Council voted Monday to rebid the project.

During a city council meeting on Sept. 7, the council was made aware that the fire station project, which would have included necessary repairs to the floor of the current facility, received only one bid of $658,240, which was more than double the original estimate of $300,000.
