February 12, 2024
TB Resolution 2024 -022: Rescind TB Resolution 2023-186 and Authorization to award and execute agreement for Garage Door Opener Replacement Services, Subject to Permissive Referendum
Whereas on November 22, 2023, the Town of Ithaca Director of Public Works (Director) received proposals for the Garage Door Opener Replacement Services for the replacement of 7 commercial
jackshaft garage door openers due to the existing openers being near their end of life and safety features are no longer operational; 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 Garage Door Opener Replacement Services 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 the Director previously reviewed the proposals and determined that the lowest, qualified contractor’s proposal of Twenty-Three Thousand Six Hundred Forty-Four Dollars and Zero
Cents ($23,644.00) for the work was made by Martin’s Door Service LLC, 1116 Route 5 & 20 Geneva NY 14456; and
Whereas Martin’s Door Service could not provide satisfactory insurance to fulfill the terms of the agreements; and
Whereas the subsequent lowest, qualified contractor’s proposal of Twenty-Nine Thousand Eight Hundred Fifty-Five Dollars and Zero Cents ($29,855.00) for the work was made by Genson Overhead
Door Inc., 11710 State Rte. 90 Locke, NY 13092, and
Whereas the Director is authorized to approve change orders without further authorization from this Board, provided that the Director receives appropriate justification and the maximum
amount of such change orders does not exceed $5,000 in aggregate and the total project cost, including the contract, engineering, legal and other expenses, does not exceed the maximum
authorized cost of the project of $34,855.00, now therefore be it
Resolved that the Town Board rescinds TB Resolution 2023-186 which authorized the Town Supervisor to award and execute the agreement for the Garage Door Opener Replacement Services to
Martin’s Door Service LLC, and be it further
Resolved that the Town Board authorizes the Town Supervisor to award and execute an agreement for the Garage Door Opener Replacement Services to Genson Overhead Door Inc., with a cost
not to exceed Thirty-Four Thousand Eight Hundred Fifty-Five Dollars and Zero Cents ($34,855), and subject to a permissive referendum pursuant to the provisions of Town Law §220(2); and
be it further
Resolved, that pursuant to Town Law §90 and §91, within ten (10) days from the date of this resolution, the Town Clerk, in the same manner as provided for notice of a special election,
shall post and publish a notice which shall set forth the date of adoption of this resolution, shall contain such resolution or an abstract of such resolution concisely setting forth
the purpose and effect thereof, shall specify that this resolution was adopted subject to a permissive referendum; and shall publish such notice in the Ithaca Journal, a newspaper published
in Tompkins County having general circulation in the Town, and in addition thereto that the Town Clerk shall post or cause to be posted on the sign-board of the Town, a copy of such
notice within ten (10) days after the date of adoption of this resolution.
