Summary

The board authorized adding a job code and pay rate so part-time zoning officer and insured carpenter William Welch can install five fire doors at Tannery Pond, a move expected to cost roughly $400 rather than higher contractor bids.

The Johnsburg Town Board authorized creating a job code and pay rate to allow William Welch, the town's part-time zoning officer and an insured carpenter, to install five fire doors at Tannery Pond. Committee members reported Welch's credentials and the town's bid-gathering: two installation bids were received that were above $3,000 for installation; using Welch's carpentry and one town employee's assistance was estimated to cost about $400.

Board members moved and seconded a motion to create a line item in building personnel to pay Welch for the work, then voted to approve. The action was described as a cost-saving measure that keeps work in-house while ensuring coverage and insurance for the installation.
