The bid award package for the construction of the TOBIE Phase 2 Welcome Center in Eagle Bay, which had been submitted by Town of Webb Supervisor Ted Riehle, as authorized by the town board, has been approved by the New York State Department of Transportation, according to Supervisor Riehle.
That amounts to the final authorization before construction with no further signatures or approvals needed, according to Riehle.
“The Welcome Center project will be moving forward,” Riehle said at the town board’s monthly meeting on Tuesday. “We’re good to go.”
Additionally, he said construction is dated to start at the earliest time feasible. Supervisor Riehle said he is hoping for April 1st of 2013 or soon thereafter.
The center is to be located at the former Thibado garage property and will include Eagle Bay’s long-anticipated public restrooms.
