Commission approves up to $350 to replace gate at Greater Woods; gate itself quoted at $270
Summary
The Conservation Commission voted 7–0 on March 24 to authorize up to $350 from fund 53 to buy and install a replacement gate and related small parts at Greater Woods; the quoted gate price was $270.
The Merrimack Conservation Commission voted 7–0 on March 24 to authorize an expenditure not to exceed $350 from fund 53 to replace the gate and supporting structure at the Greater Woods property.
Commissioners reported they have a vendor quote of $270 for the gate itself and that the motion anticipates modest additional costs for hinges, latch or other small parts once installers assess the existing posts. A commissioner moved to approve a not-to-exceed amount of $350; another commissioner seconded. The chair called for a vote and the motion passed, recorded as "Vote passes 7 to 0 0."
Commissioners said the Greater Woods subcommittee will obtain the quote from Tractor Supply (or a similar supplier) and complete procurement consistent with the commission’s procedures. The commission recorded the funding source as fund 53 and noted the purchase assumes hinges and latch are serviceable; if other repairs are required the subcommittee will report back.
No additional related spending or installation contracts were authorized at the meeting beyond the $350 not-to-exceed approval.
