RESOLUTION NO.: 140, 2004
INTRODUCED BY: Mr. Daniel Stec
WHO MOVED ITS ADOPTION
SECONDED BY: Mr. John Strough
WHEREAS, by Resolution No.: 176,2003, the Queensbury Town Board authorized
engagement of Barton & Loguidice, P.C. (B&L) for provision of engineering services related to the
design of transmission enhancements to the Town of Queensbury’s water system, and
WHEREAS, by such Resolution, procurement of easements by B&L was authorized for an
amount not to exceed $20,000, and
WHEREAS, the Water Superintendent has advised the Town Board that at the time
Resolution No.: 176,2003 was adopted, it was not possible to accurately define the amount of effort
needed to procure all of the easements and so easement acquisition services would be provided on a
time plus expenses basis, and
WHEREAS, B&L has advised that the actual time and expenses associated thus far related to
the easement acquisition work is nearly $20,000 and B&L anticipates that in order to secure the
remaining easements, additional Town Board authorization is needed in the amount of $10,000, and
WHEREAS, the Water Superintendent has recommended that the Town Board authorize
payment for the additional easement procurement services provided by B&L for an amount not to
exceed an additional $10,000 as delineated in B&L’s proposal dated February 17, 2004 and
presented at this meeting,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT
RESOLVED, that the Queensbury Town Board hereby approves and authorizes the additional
easement procurement work provided by Barton & Loguidice, P.C. related to the design of
transmission enhancements to the Town’s water system for an amount not to exceed an additional
$10,000, such services to be made from 2004 appropriations for this purpose after services have
been completed and a voucher approved, and
BE IT FURTHER,
RESOLVED, that the Town Board further authorizes and directs the Water Superintendent,
Budget Officer and/or Town Supervisor to execute any documentation and take such other and further
action as may be necessary to effectuate the terms of this Resolution.
