body
WHEREAS, the Office of Building Inspection & Enforcement (OBIE) had identified the single residence known as 27 Valley Place North, owner is Daniel Zweeres, is structurally unsafe due to a second alarm fire that took place on March 5, 2022. Due to these unsafe conditions, damages and including hazardous contaminated materials, OBIE held a mandatory walkthrough on March 18, 2022. Six demolition contractors, which are listed on the City’s small business program were invited (see attachment) where only five submitted their proposals.
WHEREAS, strong winds caused more severed damages to this building thus creating endangerment to the public, pedestrians, and adjacent homes that were already impacted by the fire that took place at 27 Valley Place North. The offices of OBIE were at the time identifying additional funds to find ways to demolish this unsafe structure but due to the rapid deterioration of this structure it was determined that demolition needed to take place right away. On April 12, 2022, an emergency response took place for the emergency demolition of 27 Valley Place North. The work was performed by New Haven Abatement & Demolition LLC.
WHEREAS, funds are available for the work. 3079MB01
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT ORDERED by the New Haven Board of Alders that the request of the Purchasing Agent on behalf of the Office of Building Inspection & Enforcement for emergency procurement in the amount of $62,585.00 for New Haven Abatement & Demolition LLC for the Emergency Demolition and removal of hazardous contaminated materials at 27 Valley Place North is now and hereby approved.
