Union City council accepts $16,679 quote to install canoe and kayak launch at American Legion field
Summary
The Borough Council voted unanimously to accept a $16,679 quote from Construction Services of PA to install a canoe/kayak launch at the American Legion ball field, contingent on an easement from the American Legion.
Councilor Osborn moved and Councilor Kerns seconded a motion to accept Construction Services of PA's $16,679 quote to install a canoe and kayak launch at the designated area of the American Legion ball field; the motion carried unanimously.
Borough Manager Cindy Wells said quotes were reviewed by the engineer at The EADS Group and that, because the project cost is under $23,200, formal bidding was not required. The competing quote from Blum Property Services, LLC was $18,541.50. Council approved the lower quote on the condition that the borough receive an easement from the American Legion.
The approval directs staff to coordinate with the vendor and the American Legion to finalize the easement and schedule installation. No construction timeline or funding source beyond the accepted quote was specified in the meeting record.
The council approved the motion during the Aug. 27 meeting; the matter was recorded as carried unanimously.
