Cobleskill Accepts Firehouse Bids

COBLESKILL - At a special meeting held at the Village offices last Friday, the Cobleskill Village Board considered several roofing bids for work on the firehouse, as well as an appointment to their Codes department.

Out of four bids received, Mayor Rebecca Stanton-Terk explained that the Board eliminated the lowest bidder after carefully looking through all of their options.

As such, the second lowest bidder was Titan Roofing, a company out of Albany, and Mayor Stanton-Terk advocated for the cheaper flat roof bid. 

She also said that the cost would roll into the fire contract budget line due to the bid’s nature as a repair job, and that the burden would be shared by everyone that contributes to that shared service contract.

“It’s essential that the whole fire district helps pay for this,” concluded Mayor Stanton-Terk, and hoped for strong cooperation between all entities to help keep the firehouse modern and sharp.

With her explanation finished, the entire Board had no problem with Titan Roofing and unanimously approved a motion to award them the bid.

In other news, the Board appointed a new office keyboard worker to the Codes department to ensure smooth efficiency, and approved Resolution 14 of 2025 to aid the Village in chasing grants and other sources of funding.

Finally, the Board entered into executive session after concluding all other business to discuss a matter of Village policing.
