Select Board to review multiple truck bids before awarding

Townshend Select Board · May 26, 2026

Summary

The board opened bids for vehicle replacements — including cab/chassis and a 10-wheeler dump configuration — and voted to review proposals and return with a recommendation at the next meeting.

Select Board members opened and read high-level totals for a set of truck procurement bids, including cab/chassis and 10-wheel dump configurations. Bids included figures such as Formula Ford at $150,378, Claremont Ford at $179,962, ATG at $192,976, Allegent Truck Center at $288,987, and another quote at roughly $302,127; members acknowledged more detailed specifications and delivery timing would be evaluated.

A board member moved to take the bids under review, comparing configurations, warranties and delivery times, and the board agreed to weigh pros and cons and return with a recommendation at the next meeting. Staff will compile full bid packets and technical details so members can assess lifetime cost, winter-equipment packages, and delivery schedules before making an award.
