Board approves $65,003.64 Malden Street paving using CHIPS funds, delays $124,000 culvert project
Summary
The board approved spending $65,003.64 (state contract using CHIPS funds) to pave Malden Street from the town line to the bridge and deferred a separate $124,000 culvert extension; the paving award follows a recommendation to close a gap between town and village paving.
A committee member presented two Valley Paving estimates: a $124,000 culvert extension on Malden Street and a $65,003.64 paving project to pave Malden from the county/town line down to the bridge. He recommended postponing the culvert project because of its $124,000 cost and proceeding with the $65,003.64 Malden Street paving while the contractor is working in the area. He said, "The CHIPS funds would cover the Malden Bridge project." The Chair asked whether the county would reimburse paving down to the culvert; the committee member confirmed the town (Town of Nassau) would use CHIPS funds for the paving portion the town is responsible for.
The board made and seconded a motion to approve the $65,003.64 paving contract under the state contract and using CHIPS funds; the Chair called the voice vote and the motion carried. The culvert extension was recommended to be held off pending further exploration of options by the town engineer and staff.
