Township opens HVAC bids, tables award to March 23; authorizes Felton Borough right-of-way signage coordination
Summary
Chanceford supervisors opened two bids for the township HVAC project and voted to delay award until the March 23 advertised meeting to allow review; the board also authorized paperwork to let Felton Borough use township right-of-way for signage on Runkle Road.
At its March 9 meeting, the Chanceford Township Board opened two bids for the township HVAC project and voted to table awarding the contract until its next advertised meeting on March 23.
Solicitor John Wilson read the bids: Brenneman HVAC Solutions LLC submitted a base bid of $48,600; All Done Mechanical Services, Inc. submitted $36,650. Vice-Chairman Bradley Smith moved to table the award to allow the supervisors to review the bids for accuracy; Chairman Kent Heffner seconded the motion and it carried unanimously.
On another solicitor item, the board authorized the preparation of documentation to permit Felton Borough to use Chanceford Township’s right-of-way and install signage on Runkle Road, directing coordination between township and Felton officials to memorialize the agreement. Bradley Smith made the motion to authorize preparation; Heffner seconded and the motion carried unanimously.
Why it matters: tabling the HVAC award pauses the procurement process to allow the board to confirm bid completeness and compliance with procurement rules. The signage authorization initiates a coordinated intermunicipal agreement that could affect traffic control and maintenance responsibilities on Runkle Road.
What’s next: the HVAC contract decision is scheduled for the March 23 advertised meeting when the board will consider award after reviewing bid packages. Solicitor John Wilson and township staff will proceed with documentation and coordination with Felton Borough officials for the signage matter.
