VETERANS PARK BULKHEAD REPLACEMENT PROJECT
G. Goehringer stated that the purpose of this Special Meeting was to review the specific elements of the
bid package for the Vets Park bulkhead replacement project. D. Prokop and L Tortora worked on the
bid notice today. D. Prokop expressed his concern that the bid notice contains the correct description of
the project. G, Goehringer stated that the project was replacement of the bulkhead that was existing
prior to Hurricane Sandy (406') and shall include construction of additional bulkheading (213') for a total
footage of 619' of bulkhead. R. Williamson stated that FEMA requires the wall be 2' above sea level. G.
Goehringer stated that he does not wish to pursue work on the parking lot unless we comply with
FEMA's requirements and until this project is completed.
D. Prokop expressed concern that Fischetti's application match the bid specifications and that Fischetti's
application states "replacing existing structures" and did not include the construction of additional
bulkheading. It was agreed that D. Prokop will contact Fischetti to discuss this issue. D. Prokop also
stated that the application should state the Mattituck Park District as the applicant and not Gerard
Goehringer. N. Deegan stated that he did not agree with Fischetti's specifications. G. Goehringer stated
that the plans are comprehensive and include everything necessary to make it easier for the DEC. G.
Goehringer further stated that we may need other people qualified to review these bids. D. Prokop
posed the question of payments and suggested A payments. R. Williamson stated that we should
require an affidavit from the contractor stating all subcontractors were paid and that the project was
100% complete prior to making the final payment. G. Goehringer stated that he will ask Fischetti for a
quote to inspect project prior to making any payments, G. Goehringer further stated that East Coast
Mines has an entire mountain of dirty sand and that the bottom of the bulkhead should not be packed
with dirty sand. He further stated that the DEC wants clean sand. It was agreed that clean fill would be
included in bid specifications. We may need to go out for bid for 1,800 - 2,200 cu. yds. of clean sand.

The Scope of Work was reviewed and a discussion ensued regarding Everlast 4.5 or equal sheathing and
Everlast 8.5 or equal. N. Deegan stated that Everlast 8.5 was not necessary and would add a significant
cost to the bid. It was also suggested that we add "price per foot" to the Scope of Work. It was also
agreed that we will add a request for additional cost for clean fill to the bid package. G. Goehringer
stated that we will only pay for sand that we use and that we will request 1,800 - 2,200 cu. yds. L.
Tortora will contact one of the Commissioners with any questions from contractors about the bids. In
addition, the bid package will require I million, 3 million aggregate for insurance.
L. Tortora and D. Prokop will revise the bid notice and email same to L. Krauza for placement in The
SufJ~olk Times on 3/28/13 and 4/4/13. L. Tortora suggested we use a bid sheet which she will prepare
and was agreed to by the Commissioners.
MARLENE LANE CiViC ASSOCIATION
D. Prokop asked the Commissioners for feedback on the question of holding a certain amount in escrow
for restoring our property. R. Williamson stated that their contractor wants to start on Wednesday. All
three Commissioners agreed not to hold any amount in escrow. D. Prokop will prepare the Agreement
tomorrow.
BAILIE BEACH REPLENISHMENT PROJECT
D. Prokop stated that the Army Corp. of Engineers is looking for a perpetual easement against our
property east of the jetty. The Easement would be recorded and would include a portion of Breakwater
Beach as well. There is no consensus on the part of the Commissioners to move forward at this time.
The concern is the removal of 10,000 cu. yds. of sand from Breakwater Beach. D. Prokop will obtain
more information from the Army Corp. of Engineers and this matter will be placed on the April Work
Session Agenda.
MISCELLANEOUS

spoke with Gregg Wormuth, Mattituck's Athletic Director, and Greg informed her that he is not allowed
to play on the school fields. L. Tortora further stated that we have very limited space available on field
