Battalia Councilwoman Caroline Silverstone Councilman Stephen C. Chapin Councilwoman Elaine Price Councilman Henry Korn was not present at this meeting. Also present were: Stephen V. Altieri, Town Administrator Edward M. Lieberman, Town Counsel The first matter of business before the Board was consideration of bids for repaving of roads under Contract TA-88-11. Mr. Thomas Welby, representing Area Paving Corporation, appeared before the Board and made certain inquiries with respect to Contract TA-88-11. The Administrator then made a presentation to the Board indicating that on July 13th, the Town had received and opened bids for road resurfacing and on July 20th a contract had been awarded to ELQ Industries. In response to the inquiries of Area Paving Corporation, the Town reviewed the bids received and the bid specifications. The Administrator further mentioned that he had neglected to indicate that total budget appropriation for road resurfacing for 1988 is approximately $145, 000 and, therefore, when fully extended, all of the bids received exceeded the amount budgeted for road resurfacing. He then recommended that since adherence to specifications would have required the Board to award a contract in excess of the budgeted amount, the bids received should be rejected and the contract be readvertised for bid in the hope of receiving lower prices.
