OXFORD TOWNSHIP
SPECIAL MEETING
AUGUST 10, 2006

A special meeting of the Mayor and Township Committee of the Township of Oxford
was held on August 10, 2006 in the Oxford Township Municipal Building, 11 Green
Street, Oxford, New Jersey to award the bid to the lowest bidder for the construction of
recreational fields.

In attendance were Angelo Accetturo, Bonnie Riley, Michael Finelli, Mike Lavery, Pete
Kowalick and Sheila L. Oberly. Alex Lazorisak was absent.

Mr. Accetturo called the meeting to order at 4:05 PM and announced that the meeting
was advertised in accordance with the OPMA of 1975.

Mr. Kowalick, Mr. Accetturo, Mr. Finelli and Mr. Lavery discussed the vouchers that
were submitted by Schoor DePalma for completion of work on the MP #3 -
redevelopment grants and the amount of money that should be released to pay these bills.

Mr. Finelli stated that last week on August 3, 2006, the bids were opened and everyone has received a status report of the bids. The lowest bidder was U-CON Construction

Base Bid - $154,644.91; Alternate #1 - $24,679.50; Alternate #2 – $102,256.00.

Mr. Finelli said that the Alternate Bid #2 items would be the last things that would be
needed to establish a full recreational area. The potential contractor, U-CON could start the project as soon as possible. Mr. Finelli’s recommendation is to award the base bid and Alternate #1 Bid and get the project started.

On motion by Mr. Accetturo and seconded by Mrs. Riley to award the bid to U-CON
Construction for the base bid of $154,644.91 and Alternate #1 bid of $24,679.50 as per Michael Finelli’s designs.

On motion by Mrs. Riley and seconded by Mr. Accetturo to sign the contract with
U-CON Construction subject to all documentation being reviewed by Michael Lavery,
Township Attorney.

Mr. Accetturo stated that PRMUA is requesting the money that Oxford owes to them.
Mr. Lavery is waiting to hear from Mr. Campbell, PRMUA attorney about renegotiating
the contract now and every five years before a check is issued.

On motion by Mr. Accetturo and seconded by Mrs. Riley to enter into Executive Session
at 4:45 PM.
