MASSENA â The demolition and removal of an East Orvis Street building that was gutted in a November 2016 fire will have to wait.
Village trustees had advertised for bids for the work. But they received only one response, and trustees said during their Tuesday meeting that the $46,975 quote was too high.
Department of Public Works Superintendent Hassan A. Fayad said that price could potentially go higher because of other costs associated with the project, such as air qualify monitoring.
âSo youâre looking at probably $50,000 for the demolition and removal of that building,â he said.
Code Enforcement Officer Aaron Hardy said he had reached out to larger contractors to try and get more bids, and also sent emails, but was unsuccessful in receiving more than one. Contractors had until July 16 to place their bids.

The property at 104 East Orvis St. had been condemned by the villageâs code enforcement officer and is considered to be in violation of village code.
During their May meeting, village trustees had approved giving the owner 30 days after being served with papers by the code enforcement officer to address the structure, but in the meantime seeking bids for demolition if that became necessary.
