CONFIDENTIAL MEMORANDUM
TO: QUEENSBURY TOWN BOARD
CC: STUART BAKER, SENIOR PLANNER
FROM: MARILYN RYBA,PROJECT MANAGER
DATE: JUNE 15,2016
RE: HOME PROGRAM SHARS #20133127
A proposed resolution for project #7099 is on the agenda for your June 20, 2016
meeting.
This resolution is to approve general construction and heating work.
The low bid for the work is $14,450 for general construction. The heating system work
was bid to heating contractors only. The low bid came in at $3,05 for heating work. The
total cost of work anticipated is therefore, $17,545 which is below the maximum
allowable amount.
We set up all resolutions to allow expenditures up to the full amount available. This
allows the flexibility to address a change order, only if necessary, without having to
delay a project for additional approvals.
Thank you for your consideration.
