FROM: Robert H. Balkind, P.E., Commissioner
DATE: May 1, 2026
RE: RESOLUTION REQUEST - CAPITAL PROJECT H0593 AMENDMENT ADA
IMPROVEMENTS -SOUTH MAPLE AVE AND NORTH MAPLE AVE (CR 62)
VILLAGE OF MILLERTON
In June 2022 the Legislature adopted resolution no. 2022105 which authorized $1,050,000 for
design, permitting and construction of an ADA Improvement project to repair and install new
sidewalks and curb ramps along the west side of South Maple Ave and North Maple Ave (CR 62)
in the Village of Millerton. This resolution created capital project H0593. To date, $25,374 was
spent on right-of-way acquisition, and $113,200 was spent on design and permitting fees. This
leaves $911,426 available for construction phase work.
During design work, New York State Dept of Transportation (NYSDOT) requested that the County
install new pedestrian signals at the existing traffic signal at the Rte. 44 intersection with CR 62 to
further improve ADA access. This request increased the cost of the project and was reflected in
the bids received.
Resolution no. 2022105 also authorized $450,000 for ADA improvements along Innis Ave (CR 75)
in the Town of Poughkeepsie, however the Innis Ave sidewalk project was completed using
surplus funds from other capital accounts, and the $450,000 identified for Innis Avenue in
resolution no. 2022105 has not been expended.
In December 2024 the Legislature adopted resolution no. 2024206 which declared the County as
SEQR Lead Agency and adopted the determination the SEQR Unlisted project would have no
significant adverse environmental impact.
On April 7, 2026, the Department opened bids for construction of the improvements and received
a low bid of $1,434,998 from a responsive and responsible bidder. Construction inspection costs
are estimated at $167,000. Based on the low bid and expected inspection costs, the construction
phase total is $1,601,998.
626 Dutchess Turnpike, Poughkeepsie, New York 12603 | (845) 486-2085 | www.dutchessny.gov
The Department is seeking authority to utilize the $450,000 authorized within resolution no.
2022105 for Innis Avenue for construction phase costs for the CR 62 sidewalk project. If this is
approved, the Department would apply $911,426 authorized for CR 62 and $450,000 authorized
for CR 75 from resolution 2022105.
This would provide $1,361,426 for construction phase
activities on the CR 62 project, resulting in a shortfall of $240,572. The Department is also seeking
to amend Capital project H0593 by adding additional appropriates of $250,000 to fully fund
construction activities on the CR 62 project including contingency funds.
Please contact me with any questions.
