Re:  Community Activity Center Shelter Picnic - Bid Award

Dear Board Members:

Bids were opened for the Community Activity Center Shelter Picnic on August 25, 2026. The project consists of a new
concrete pad and the construction of a 16’x20’ Picnic Shelter with Alternate #1 “Sidewalk Installation” and Alternate #2
“Electrical Lights and Plug”.

The project was formally bid out, with a total of 10 bids received. The lowest bidder was Foreman Enterprises Inc., totaling
$65,509.00 (Base Bid including Alternates #1 & #2).

The Engineering Department has reviewed the bid submitted. Foreman Enterprises is more than capable of completing this
project in the time frame identified. The company has been found to possess the qualifications and experience to fuifil the
stated project requirements, and I have no reservations about their capabilities. The set completion date for this project is
May 28th, 2027.

Funding has been allocated through the SAM Grant, and Capital Account AB027 “Senior Van/Outdoor SAMS”.  The Town
was awarded $150,000.00 through this grant. There has already been $60,380.00 used for a new Senior Center Transportation
Van. The remaining funding will be applied to picnic tables, benches, and so forth.

I, therefore, recommend that you adopt the following resolution:

  1)  Award the contract for the Community Activity Center Shelter Picnic to the lowest responsible bidder, Foreman
  Enterprises Inc., PO Box 587 East Amherst, NY 14051, in an amount not to exceed $65,509.00 (Base Bid and
  Alternates #1 & #2).

Respectfully submitted,  eg
