Dear Gentlemen:
I am writing on behalf of the Board of Selectmen, pursuant to their vote at last week’s
meeting, to respectfully request the Commission conduct a review pursuant to CGS 8-24 of the
Town’s acquisition of real property and improvements at 439 and 441 Boston Post Road from
the Oswegatchie Fire Company No. 4, Inc.
As you are likely aware, the RTM created the Oswegatchie Building Committee last year
to supervise the replacement of the existing fire station. Given the substantial cost to replace the
fire station it has been determined that the Town should own the property upon which this new
community facility will be located.
If you require more information than Chairman Tuneski’s attached letter to the Board of
Selectmen please let me know and we will provide the Commission and Department additional
information.
Sincerely,
JAN 1 8 2024

Memorandum
To: Board of Selectmen, Board of Finance, Representative Town Meeting
From: Oswegatchie Building Committee Chair Robert Tuneski on behalf of the Committee
On February 6, 2023, the Waterford Representative Town Meeting created a Building
Committee for the Oswegatchie fire station to supervise interim renovations as required and plan
for and manage the replacement of the fire station, as a Town-owned facility. The Building
Committee has met 14 times since last May, usually twice a month, to pursue these
responsibilities. In November 2023, a request for proposals (RFP) was issued by the Committee
through Waterford‘s purchasing agent Shea Davy. Two firms responded to the RFP: Silver
Petrocelli Associates (SPA) of Hamden and New London and the Galante Studio from
Cambridge MA. The candidates were interviewed last week and the committee voted to select
SPA, based on their extensive experience designing numerous fire stations across Connecticut of
diverse size and cost as well as their proximity to Waterford and significantly lower cost than the
Galante firm. A summary of the winning bidder’s proposal is attached for your review prepared
by the Committee’s procurement consultant, retired Fairfield, Connecticut purchasing agent
Twig Holland.
The award to SBA will be a commitment of $326,675 and the Building Committee wishes to
continue to use Ms. Holland’s services at a cost of $5,000. Since the town has approximately
$204,854 remaining from an earlier appropriation for the previous Fire Station Building
Committee’s efforts in 2018, the Building Committee is requesting an additional appropriation
from the town of $126,821 ($326,675 + $5,000 - $204,854), subject to execution by all parties of
a contract between the Town and the Oswegatchie Fire Company No. 4, Inc. to purchase 439 and
441 Boston Post Road and a lease agreement between the parties.
SPA anticipates commencing its work this March and will collaborate with the Committee to
design the new building during 2024. The goal will be to commence construction in the spring of
2025 and SPA’s early target completion date is the spring of 2026. On behalf of the residents and
property owners who will benefit from this critical public safety and property protection
initiative, the Committee appreciates careful consideration of this request by the Selectmen,
Board of Finance and RTM members. We would be pleased to provide any additional
information you might require.
