The Village of Rhinebeck board approved task order 27B, a $7,000 package with TimeBond for Asher Dam inspections that combines in‑house training and two detailed inspections.

Under the agreement, $1,800 will pay to train two village staff members to perform informal inspections, and $5,200 will fund two detailed visual inspections by TimeBond for the coming year. Board members said the change shifts routine informal inspections into village staff control, reducing the need to pay outside consultants for every informal check while maintaining state‑required formal inspections.

A board member confirmed the inspection cadence described in the task order: two informal and two formal inspections annually, with state technical reporting schedules noted. The motion passed without objection; staff will record inspection history in the municipal files and schedule training and formal inspections in coordination with TimeBond.
