The Town of Greenburgh has put a price tag on the controversial emergency repair project for the collapsed sewer line at 100 East Hartsdale Ave.
Town officials now estimate the cost of the no-bid repair contract at just over $5.1 million, following questions from residents and town officials about the open-ended emergency authorization approved for the project.
A temporary bypass pumping system has kept sewage flowing for more than two years after a major sewer pipe failure. The temporary system has remained in place while engineers evaluated the damage and developed a permanent repair plan.
The Greenburgh Town Board is now moving forward with the estimated $5.1 million repair project by Morano Contracting, the company that has already received more than $2 million in taxpayer funds to maintain the temporary bypass system.
Residents who live at the property say the lengthy delay has taken a toll on their daily lives.
“It has been over two years. We have people without parking spaces. We have very noisy equipment in the back. Please, please, I beg you to get it done,” said resident Melissa Guzman.
The Greenburgh Department of Public Works says preparation work for the permanent sewer repairs has already begun.
