NJEIT has accepted change orders #17 and #18. Since all change orders have been accepted by all funding agencies our office prepared and submitted the contractor closeout documentation to the Town for their review and approval. The closeout package contains the project maintenance bond, project environmental maintenance bond as required by NJEIT, and final payment recommendation. Our office would like to note that due to the date of substantial completion both the maintenance bond and the environmental maintenance bond have expired. Since these items are required by NJEIT, we are recommending that the Town accept both maintenance bonds, approve the final payment, and then release the maintenance bond during the Council Meeting. Our office would also like to note that while the bonds are expired, the project has been and continues to be covered by the project performance bond until the Town officially accepts the project.


Motion by Councilman Furgione, second by Councilman Rodio ,

  1. Accept the Project Maintenance Bond and Project Environmental Maintenance Bond.
