In January 2017, the Penfield Town Board began working with MRB Group to explore the potential construction of a new Department of Public Works facility. The current DPW facility was originally constructed in 1957. Over the years, the Town of Penfield has continued to grow, and the DPW facility has not kept pace with the growth. As a result, the Town Board continues to explore options to bring the facility in line with the current needs of the Town.
In February of 2023, Director of Public Works Eric Tait and representatives from MRB Group shared a preliminary proposal for constructing a new DPW facility. Below, you will find a link to watch the presentation and supporting documentation. The Town Board authorized the Deputy Supervisor to sign a contract with MRB Group for Professional Design Services for a New DPW Garage Facility on May 3, 2023.
January 2024 Update
The design of the new DPW facility is now substantially complete. The proposed facility will see the DPW almost triple in size from just under 30,000 SF to 73,000 SF. The bigger space will greatly enhance operational efficiency and give crews the proper workspace to do their jobs successfully.
The new proposed DPW includes a 26-bay vehicle garage with modern amenities maintenance area, administration office, breakroom, restroom facilities, kennel space for Animal Control, fire suppression system and additional modern safety features, salt storage building, sand storage building, pole barn, and fuel station.
During a Town Board meeting on Wednesday, November 1, the board passed a resolution giving the Town Board the ability to bond up to $25 million to pay for the project. $5 million in reserve funds were also identified to help fund the project. The $30 million currently allocated is not a final price tag; it is a project maximum and allows the planning process to continue.
