Board considers $7,750 purchase of five "Welcome to Menands" signs
Summary
Trustee Peter moved to buy five new aluminum 'Welcome to Menands' signs (vinyl faces) with installation from vendor AM & J; trustees discussed size, placement and funding through the sign budget and contingency funds.
The chair presented two quotes for replacing five deteriorated 'Welcome to Menands' signs and said the recommended vendor (AM & J, described as a woman‑owned business) had the lower price. Trustee Peter moved to purchase five signs and four installations for a total shown in the motion; trustees discussed sign size, placement and use of existing sign budget and contingency funds to cover the cost.
Details in the motion were presented on the record in slightly garbled numeric form on the transcript; trustees confirmed size (48 by 36 inches) and agreed to place the new signs on aluminum posts at the same locations, with staff to identify the most visible positions. "They're all aluminum with a vinyl vinyl, vinyl printing," the Chair noted when describing the materials.
