Committee approves a package of highway, capital and service contracts and budget amendments
Summary
Members approved a series of routine motions including authorizations for HHW services, Route 61 special services, Gallow Construction slope-stabilization bid, student internship placement and advertising a Carol Senior Center capital bid; motions carried by voice votes.
The Greene County Legislature committee moved through and approved several consent and action items covering human services agreements, capital-project bidding, highway contracts and budget amendments.
Items approved included an authorizing agreement between the Department of Human Services and Home Aid/Trinity Health Alert, a student internship placement agreement with Castill Central School District, authority to advertise bids for Capital Project No. 161 (Carol Senior Center), and reappointments to the Green County Board of Electrical Examiners. Committee members approved an authorization for household hazardous waste collection operations and carried a motion to enter an agreement for special services with CDM Smith for Route 61 river-bridge work.
The committee also authorized procurement steps for Group 23B slope-stabilization and sidewalk repair, noting a low bid from Gallow Construction around $2.274 million and higher competitive offers; votes carried on budget amendments related to those projects. Members authorized entering into an auctions-services contract (to handle equipment sales) and directed the highway and solid-waste superintendent to award certain replacement bridge work and related contracts.
Votes were handled by voice and several motions were carried without roll-call tallies in the transcript; where a member voiced opposition it was noted during the proceedings. The committee scheduled follow-up as needed for project scheduling and vendor contract administration.
