9.30.2026 Redevelopment Authority

The Fall River Redevelopment Authority meeting (dated September 30, 2026, in the title; metadata is dated October 1) approved the September warrant for $324,932.59. The board also approved Change Order No. 2 for DW White, totaling $44,700 for additional material and grading work, and authorized an additional landscaping/seed change order not to exceed $3,000 to stabilize plantings and paths. It authorized the executive director to purchase vacant-building property insurance for an annual premium of $7,314; members discussed its limits and exclusions, including the lack of debris-removal coverage.

For the Pleasant Street corridor, the board approved an agreement with GCG Associates for pre-construction services after reviewing proposals from GCG, Beta, and Niche Engineering. The motion’s amount is garbled in the transcript (rendered as “$139,55”), so the exact figure cannot be confirmed. Members also discussed approximately $40,000 in anticipated funding for Purchase Street planning and possible future design work, but no related contract award was made. Other project updates included mooring-field work and temporary parking improvements; fire-protection pricing was still to be obtained. The transcript ends as an RFP for consultant services is introduced, without providing its details.
