TB Resolution 2023 - 109: Authorization to Award Contract for the 2023 Judd Falls Road Miscellaneous Curbing, Sidewalk, and ADA Curb Ramp Repairs Project
Whereas the 2023 Town Budget included $300,000 for the rehabilitation of Judd Falls Road pavement, curbing, and sidewalks; and
Whereas pursuant to the New York State Environmental Quality Review Act (“SEQRA”) and its implementing regulations at 6 NYCRR Part 617, it has been determined by the Town Board that
approval, construction and implementation of the 2023 Judd Falls Road Miscellaneous Curbing, Sidewalk, and ADA Curb Ramp Repairs Project (Project) is a Type II Action because the Action
constitutes "replacement, rehabilitation or reconstruction of a structure or facility, in kind, on the same site," and thus the Project is not subject to review under SEQRA; and
Whereas on June 30, 2023, the Director of Engineering (Director) received bids for the Project and reviewed the bids and qualifications and determined the lowest responsive bid in the
amount of $98,580.00 was made by the lowest responsible bidder, Fahs Construction Group, Inc. 2224 Pierce Creek Road, Binghamton, NY 13903; now, therefore be it
Resolved, that the Town Board authorizes the award of the contract for the Town of Ithaca 2023 Judd Falls Road Miscellaneous Curbing, Sidewalk, and ADA Curb Ramp Repairs Project to Fahs
Construction Group Inc.; and be it further
Resolved, that the Town Supervisor is authorized to execute such contract subject to approval of the final contract documents by the Director and review by the Attorney for the Town;
and be it further
Resolved, that the Director is authorized to approve change orders to said contract without prior authorization of this Board upon receipt of appropriate justification, provided the
maximum amount of such change orders shall not in the aggregate exceed $4929.00 (5% of bid price) and that the total project cost, including contract, engineering, legal, inspection,
and other expenses, does not exceed the maximum authorized cost of $103,509 for the project.
