Sorry For The Repeat

But, this really bothers me.

Read about the resolution to adopt a new local law to amend the Town code for authorizing the use of apprenticeship programs as a condition of certain public works contracts.

Wicks law is triggered at $500,000.

A resolution was passed to spend up to $517,000 at Pinegrove.

.....And now the Board wants to set a public hearing to adopt a Local Law to Amend Chapter 51 of the Irondequoit Town Code for the Purposes of Authorizing the Use of Apprenticeship Programs as a Condition of Certain Public Works Contracts.

Labella, in their Revised Property Condition Report said the minimum repairs for the five year look ahead total is $418,000.

I just wonder about this resolution at this particular point in time. The law was reformed in April of last year.......and nobody wanted to adopt this local law into Town Code until now? After coming to the decision to spend up to $517,000 on Pinegrove repairs, when Labella gave an estimate of $418,000 and Wicks Law is triggered at $500,000?

Did anybody see the ICAT broadcast or attend the meeting and remember who offered the resolution and moved it's adoption? Just curious. ;)

I guess I just find this decision eSPECIALly INTERESTing during an election year, don't you?
