Gia Gallagher lives on Pine Street and has some major safety concerns. Recently her

She suggested installing speed humps, better signage and enforcement. Ms. Gallagher
is also concerned about speeding on Rt. 448.
Jared Benchman also lives on Pine Street and agrees with Ms. Gallagher. He feels that
people use Pine Street as a cut through and often speed coming off Rt. 448. He is very
concerned for the safety of his children and other children in the neighborhood.
Morris Miranda said that besides safety concerns on Pine Street, there are also people
who speed on New Broadway to catch the light.
Sandy Tripp is also concerned about people who speed on New Broadway to catch the
light.
Daniel Durango thanked the Board for the opportunity to work as a summer intern for
the Village. He also thanked all the Village employees that he worked with.

find possible solutions.

�Interoffice Memo
8/12/2019
To: Board of Trustees
Regarding: Capital Improvements projects throughout the Village
In response to the concern that the concert curb and ADA replacement ramps
is all in Philips Manner please note the following which I believe reflects a
balanced approached to capital projects through the Village.
Downtown Village
Recent capital improvements - Valley Road, Cortland and Beekman Avenue
where recently paved and pavement markings placed, new street lights have
been installed on Beekman Avenue, Kayak Park at Horan's Landing completed,
Margotta aka Sykes Park playground recently replaced, fence replaced at
Barnhart Park, Beekman Avenue round about, Basket Ball Courts updated,
Capital projects under construction - Beekman Ave bridge replacement, EOH
development, Street light installation on EOH and lower Beekman Avenue.
Capital projects recommended in the near future - Beekman Avenue, Clinton
and Courtland sidewalk replacement (in design) from Rt 9 to Clinton Street,
Beekman Avenue sidewalks from the roundabout to the Beekman Ave. Bridge.
Valley Street drainage project (in design), Ichabod's Landing Bulkhead
replacement (seeking grants), paving of Lawrence Street, Hudson Street,
lower Beekman Ave and part of River street.

�Weber Park
Recent capital improvement projects - Water relining and Douglas Park
reconstruction
Capital projects under construction - Con Ed is undertaking a large gas main
replacement project
Capital projects recommended in the near future -1 would recommend the
Village hold off on paving next year and combine 2 years of paving money
from Chips in combination with Con Ed road restoration money to pave roads
in this area as we did in Sleepy Hollow Manner.

Sleepy Hollow Manor
Recent capital improvement projects - Con Ed gas replacement
Capital projects under construction - a significant amount of roads will be
paved this year. Also some of the drainage swales will be repaired.
Capital projects recommended in the near future - none at this time
Phillips Manner
Recent capital improvement projects - Riverside Drive improvement and
train station stairs rebuilt and lighting added
Capital projects under construction - none at this time
Capital projects recommended in the near future - replacement of concrete
curbing under consideration by the board for this year. It would be my
recommendation to replace the significantly deteriorated curbing on yearly
bases so that after Weber Park paving is completed and chips money allocated
Phillips Manner would be the next area to undertake paving.

SUBJECT:

C o n c r e t e Curb R e p l a c e m e n t 2 0 1 9
Contract No. 2019-1
Bid R e c o m m e n d a t i o n

On July 19, 2019, three (3) bids w e r e received for the above referenced project. The bidder with the apparent
lowest bid was Peter J. Landi, Inc. (Landi) of Hawthorne, NY with a bid price of $130,775.00. W e a c k n o w l e d g e
that this bid exceeds t h e Village's budget for this project by $30,775.

Therefore, based on conversations this

office has had with Village D P W Superintendent, W a y n e Ballard, and based on Landi's unit bid prices, w e
r e c o m m e n d reducing the scope of work of the project as follows:
1.

R e m o v e 600 linear feet of concrete curb t o be replaced on the north side of H a r w o o d A v e n u e (as s h o w n
on Sheet 3 of 4)

2.

R e m o v e t w o (2) A D A c o m p l i a n t ramps to be replaced on the north side of H a r w o o d A v e n u e (as s h o w n
on Sheet 3 of 4)

By reducing the scope of w o r k as described above, this office estimates that t h e remaining t o t a l contract w o r k
can be c o m p l e t e d at or b e l o w $100,000.00.
Having previously w o r k e d w i t h this office on several previous projects that included concrete curb r e p l a c e m e n t
this office can confirm that Landi is familiar with the w o r k that is required in this contract.

This office is also

a w a r e that Landi has successfully c o m p l e t e d previous concrete curb and sidewalk work in the Village of Sleepy
Hollow.
This office hereby r e c o m m e n d s i m m e d i a t e award of t h e above referenced contract t o Peter J. Landi, Inc. so that
the w o r k can c o m m e n c e as soon as possible.
