Rondout-Neversink Stream Program to Buy Culvert; Denning Will Install Riley Brook Crossing
Summary
The Town Board agreed July 8 that the Rondout-Neversink Stream Program will purchase a culvert and rock for a Riley Brook crossing and the Town will install it and seek reimbursement; a 14-night bat survey found no evidence of bats and the larger project is slated for bidding this fall with construction in June 2026.
Supervisor David Brooks welcomed Brenden Wagner of the Rondout-Neversink Stream Program to present plans for the Riley Brook culvert project. Wagner presented a latest plan set and reported that "after the 14-night survey there is no evidence of bats so the project can go forward," clearing a potential environmental obstacle.
After discussion the Town Board agreed the RNSP will purchase the culvert and rock materials and the Town will perform the installation and be reimbursed for time and materials. Board members said the remainder of the project will be put out to bid in the fall with construction planned to commence in June 2026. The board thanked Wagner for attending and said they expect follow-up on scheduling and reimbursement details.
The decision leaves procurement of the structural materials to RNSP while preserving the Town's role in construction and oversight. The agreement also anticipates a public bidding process for the remaining work later this year.
