Recorded bid opening lists electrical and HVAC subcontract bids for 2026-019 Jay Street Pub in the Bronx
Summary
A Gardner City bid-opening recorded Nov. 19 listed electrical and HVAC subcontract bids for the 2026-019 Jay Street Pub project in the Bronx; staff read bidder names, exclusions for which general bidders may use the bids, and bid amounts. No votes or formal actions were taken.
Gardner City recorded a public bid opening on Wednesday for subcontractor work on the 2026-019 Jay Street Pub project in the Bronx, during which a staff member read the names of electrical and HVAC bidders and the amounts they submitted.
An unidentified staff member opened the session and said the meeting would cover two trades: electrical and then HVAC. The staff member read five electrical subcontract bids: Astro Electrical Company, Inc. ($272,400); Elm Electrical Incorporated ($398,325); Shable Electric ($458,458); Fall River Electrical Associates, Inc. ($421,000); and Weston and Family ($302,603). The reader noted for some bids whether there were listed exemptions or restrictions on which general bidders may use the subcontract bids.
The staff member then read four HVAC subcontract bids: Royal Seed Heater Company ($55,000); GHA and Cooling (bid amount announced as $92,400 and stated may be used by certain general bidders including MECO Environmental Services, Northern Contracting, Builders Systems Inc. and Waterline); Thomas E. Snowden ($83,500, with a restriction excluding BC Construction as a general bidder); and Arrujo Brothers Plowing and Heating (minimum $51,650, with exclusions noted for Fontaine Brothers Inc. and Waterline Industry Inc.).
The transcript contains audio/transcription artifacts in several places (for example, filler words and unclear phrases such as 'Big 1'); the amounts above are transcribed from the session as announced by the staff reader. The closing line of the recording refers to the project as 'James Street' while earlier the project was identified as 'Jay Street'; the article reports both renderings as they appear in the session.
No formal motions, votes, contract awards, or contract-approval decisions were recorded in the bid-opening segment; the session concluded after the staff reader finished announcing the bids.
Next steps for the procurement process (such as evaluation, award recommendations, or council approvals) were not stated on the recording and are not specified in the transcript.
