To: From: Frank Balbi, P.E., Superintendent of Public Works CC: Date: April 8, 2025 Re: Harmon Firehouse Addition –Fire Suppression System Bid # 05-2025 - Project award In 2021, the Village EMS facility located at 44 Wayne Street was found to contain mold and no longer suitable for operation. The resulting assessment of the building indicated a large number of renovations and repairs were needed to bring the facility back to an appropriate working environment. The proposed expenses led to conversations regarding the future development and structure of the Village EMS. During these discussions, the Department of Public Works renovated a small area of the Harmon Firehouse and converted it into a temporary headquarters for EMS. In August 2022, the Village contracted with Sullivan Architecture, P.C. to develop conceptual drawings for an updated EMS facility. Sullivan Architecture worked with Village staff as well as Fire and EMS to develop concepts to address Village needs. Ultimately, an addition to the Harmon Firehouse was decided to be the best solution. Sullivan Architecture then produced construction drawings for the proposed addition. In order to complete this project efficiently, the Department of Public Works will be performing as much work as possible with Village staff. The fire suppression system is a very technical and specialized portion of this project, and cannot be performed by Village staff. On March 24, 2025, the Village of Croton-on-Hudson advertised an invitation to bid on the Harmon Firehouse Addition – Fire Suppression System (Bid # 05-2025). On April 3, 2025 one bid was received and publicly read. The following results were returned: Bid Results: Bidder Bid Amount 1. AGI Fire Protection Inc. $ 87,500 The lowest responsible bid was submitted by AGI Fire Protection Inc., 15 Mountain Drive, Pleasant Valley, NY 12569. Village staff has met with AGI regarding the entire project to be completed. They seem very knowledgeable about the work to be done, and are able to complete the work in a timely manner. As a reminder, this portion of the project will supply fire suppression to the existing firehouse, as well as the EMS addition. I recommend approving AGI Fire Protection Inc.’s proposal for the Harmon Firehouse Addition – Fire Suppression System in the amount of $ 87,500.00. Funding for this project has been allocated in the existing capital accounts: H3410.2000.11223 and H4540.2102.23445.
