Summary

City engineers reported a low bid of $250,970 for Broadway sanitary sewer work, said the CDBG-funded demolition program is underway, and noted the wastewater treatment plant upgrade plans are under state review with a mid-March target to resume Crest Avenue Bridge work.

The city's engineering staff updated the council on several capital and utility projects. The low bid for the Broadway Gil sanitary sewer improvements was reported as $250,970; the project is developer-funded for construction and inspection, and the city is awaiting an escrowed payment from the developer before awarding a contract.

Engineering also reported the CDBG demolition program is progressing (currently about the fifth house) and that the wastewater treatment plant upgrade plans are under review by New York State agencies, with the staff hoping for a permit to construct soon. The Crest Avenue Bridge work remains on hiatus but is expected to resume around mid-March pending weather and creek conditions.
