The $3.1 million Capital Improvement Project will include: • Replace underground gas and diesel tanks at bus garage (installed in 2000) with above ground storage tanks • Replace fuel dispensing system at bus garage (installed in 2000) with a modern system that will help with fuel use and efficiency • Replace underground fuel oil heating tanks at bus garage (installed in 2000) with above ground storage tanks • Remediate soil as necessary • Replace two vehicle lifts at bus garage • Repair concrete floors in service bays and provide epoxy floor in service bays and parts room • Reconstruct pavement with heavy duty asphalt at various locations • Replace the oil/water separator that is too small and not functioning well To maximize State Aid on the proposed Capital Project, the district has to allot a certain percentage of the project to interior work in the school. The proposed 2021 Capital Project will contain minor renovations to the following areas that were not touched in the 2016 Capital Project including: • Restrooms near the auditorium • Restrooms near offices • Flooring near the entrance to the auditorium and gymnasium The project will also: • Replace an underground fuel tank in front of the Junior/Senior High School (installed in 1988) • Replace the pavilion at the track that collapsed in the winter of 2020. The pavilion will be the same size, but it may shift location because plans call for the addition of two separate restrooms with three toilets and three sinks in each. The pavilion may also include a sink and storage for future concessions, along with a custodial closet. • Replace the storage shed near the track with a larger building that can accommodate storage for athletic equipment The full project cost will be $3.1 million. The district will utilize $100,000 from the Capital Reserve, which results in $3 million bonded over 15 years. For aidable expenses, New York State Building Aid will reimburse 78.7% of the proposed Capital Improvement Project. After subtracting retiring debt and funds from the Capital Reserve, along with NYS Building Aid, the net local share will be approximately $65,000/year. For example, this will result in a 0.28% increase, which is equivalent to $8.48 annually on a home assessed at $100,000 in the Town of Galway. Voters approved the project on May 18, 2021. Bidding is anticipated to take place in the first quarter of 2022 with construction to take place in the spring/summer.
