Albany's Board of Contract and Supply made significant strides in infrastructure development during a special meeting on March 21, 2025. The board approved two major contracts aimed at enhancing the city's public spaces and facilities.

The first resolution awarded a contract for the Tricentennial Park Reconstruction Project to the lowest qualified bidder, HMA Contract, for a total of $1,152,000. This project is expected to revitalize one of Albany's key recreational areas, providing improved amenities for residents and visitors alike.

In addition, the board approved a roof replacement project at 628 Delaware Avenue, with A.W. Farrell and Son securing the contract for $727,000. This project will address critical maintenance needs, ensuring the longevity and safety of the facility.

The meeting also included plans for a roadway striping project, with bids set to be advertised for submission by May 2025. Each bidder will be required to provide a deposit of 5% of their total bid amount, ensuring serious proposals are submitted.

These decisions reflect Albany's commitment to maintaining and improving its infrastructure, directly benefiting the community by enhancing public spaces and facilities. As these projects move forward, residents can look forward to a more vibrant and functional city environment.
