WHEREAS, the resolution for Speaker Adams space relocation R3522 was passed by the Board at the November 2022 Rochdale Village Board Meeting for an amount not to exceed $801,855.

WHEREAS, the amount of $801,855.00 was a typo that was realized prior to the November 2022 Board Meeting but was not corrected prior to the vote due to a management oversight;

WHEREAS, the correct amount should have read $899,915.00 as stated in the architectural bid analysis reviewed prior to the November Board 2022 meeting;

WHEREAS, this does not alter the bid results with the difference between the low bid and the second lowest bid amount of $315,348; and

WHEREAS, this does not alter the funding source of the 2019 Wells Fargo refinance that were earmarked for Mall 1 renovations.

WHEREAS, Rochdale’s Power Plant was originally constructed with four interior boilers that provide steam contributing to utilities such as electricity, hot water, heating and cooling;

WHEREAS, an additional boiler was added to the exterior of the Power Plant enabling Rochdale to build three new interior boilers in place without interrupting utility service;

WHEREAS, the additional boiler has changed our potential carbon footprint causing compliance issues with the Department of Environmental Conservation (“D.E.C.”);

WHEREAS, Management and our Power Plant Engineers believe that the additional redundancy adds significant value to the Power Plant because we are an islanded facility; and

WHEREAS, a proposal from Environmental and Energy Solutions, Inc. via the Outage Experts has drafted a comprehensive plan to reach Title V D.E.C. Compliance, keeping all five boilers, for a total amount of $62,470.00.

THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Rochdale Village, Inc. Board of Directors approves the amount of $62,470.00 to Environmental and Energy Solutions, Inc. for the purpose of Title V D.E.C. compliance for all five boilers, to be funded from the Operating Account.
