DATE: October 3, 2025
RE:
RESOLUTION REQUEST - CAPITAL PROJECTS RESOLUTION REQUEST
RESTROOM IMPROVEMENTS AT 22 & 60 MARKET STREET,
POUGHKEEPSIE, NY
In June 2022 the Legislature authorized the Department of Public Works to spend up to $3.5M for various
building improvements (Resolution No. 2022104) Within the adopted resolution was a specific project
identified as:
$350,000 for the design, planning and hazardous materials remediation related to the proposed
Americans with Disabilities Act ("ADA") restroom renovations at the County Office Building,
located at 22 Market Street in the City of Poughkeepsie, and the Department of Community and
Family Services (CFS) building, located at 60 Market Street in the City of Poughkeepsie.
The architect completed their work, and the Department issued bid solicitation RFB-DCB-13-25 in August
2025. Bids were opened on September 17, 2025, and the combined total of the low bids for the various
trades was $2.301M. Additional costs will include construction management and contingencies for
$500,000. Therefore, the total construction cost is approximately $2.8M. The detailed construction cost
breakdown is:
Low Bids - construction
$2,301,068 (four prime contracts)
Construction management
$ 250,000
Contingency
$ 250,000
Construction phase cost
$2,801,068
The Department is seeking $2,801,068 for construction phase costs to award construction contracts. If
funding is approved the Department will issue a solicitation for a construction management firm, and the
Department will seek a recommendation from the Legislature's Architect, Engineer and Construction
Manager Selection Committee before an award is made.
If funding is approved, the work will commence in late 2025 or early 2026 in phases, with the project
completed in late 2027 or early 2028.
Please contact this office with any questions.
