Summary
The Cohoes Common Council voted unanimously May 26 to approve Resolution No. 16 (a federally aided transportation project/Marchiselli funding), Resolution No. 17 (engagement of Nordutch Technologies for IT upgrades) and Resolution No. 18 (amendment awarding Maple Ridge Civil the Delaware Avenue Bike/Hike Trail rehabilitation).
The Cohoes Common Council voted unanimously May 26 to approve three resolutions covering a federally aided transportation project and two vendor contracts.
Council Member John McCarthy moved to approve Resolution No. 16, described as "a Resolution authorizing the implementation, and funding in the first instance 100% of the federal-aid and State 'Marchiselli' Program-aid eligible costs, of a transportation federal-aid project, and appropriating funds therefore." Council President Adam Biggs seconded the motion; the minutes record the motion passed with all members voting "AYE."
The council then approved Resolution No. 17 to engage Nordutch Technologies for upgrades to the city’s computer system. Council Member McCarthy moved the resolution and Council President Biggs seconded; the motion passed with all members voting "AYE," according to the meeting record.
Council Member Izzo moved approval of Resolution No. 18, amending an award to Maple Ridge Civil for rehabilitation of the Delaware Avenue Bike/Hike Trail. The motion passed with all members voting "AYE," per the minutes.
The approvals were recorded as standard motions with seconding and unanimous votes; the council did not record dissenting votes in the public minutes. After the business concluded, Council Member McCarthy moved the meeting into executive session at 7:37 p.m. (the motion was seconded by Council Member Izzo and passed), and the public session concluded.
Actions at this meeting will proceed according to standard procurement and state‑aid procedures, and the transportation resolution references Marchiselli program eligibility for state-cost participation in federal projects.
