The Cheektowaga Town Board on Nov. 25 debated a previously posted storm‑sewer repair contract and approved awarding the contract to CMH Company of Alden for $28,492 covering bid items 1–31 for the contract period 08/18/2025–12/31/2026.

Board members questioned whether the contract, originally described for Doak Street work, could be applied to other streets (Starlight, Wojak, Homeworth and Meadowlawn). The supervisor said his intent was to complete Doak Street and noted the contract language allowed for other items; in response, Councilman Filippski proposed and the board passed a formal amendment limiting the contract work for this award to Doge Street and Haller Ave. "I would be happy to support an amendment on the resolved directing that this contract as approved be only applied to Doge Street," a member said, and the amendment was accepted and carried by voice vote.

Following the amendment, members approved the amended resolution. Several members also urged clearer, specific contract language for future bids and questioned whether town highway staff could perform some of the work rather than rely on contract operators. The board recorded the amendment and carried the award as amended; the contract term and dollar amount were specified in the adopted resolution.
