Select Board waives procurement to approve $30,500 historic brickwork purchase order
Summary
The Select Board approved a $30,500 purchase order to Ridgestone Construction for brickwork preservation at Town Hall and waived the procurement policy because staff said only one qualified vendor responded.
The Select Board approved a $30,500 purchase order to Ridgestone Construction (Ethan Fulk) for historic brickwork preservation at Town Hall and waived the town procurement policy to allow a single-vendor award.
Town staff reported that facility managers identified deteriorating brickwork on Town Hall and solicited bids; only one qualified vendor, Ridgestone Construction (Ethan Fulk), responded and the work was included in the 2025'26 capital improvement plan. Select Board members who spoke in favor said preserving historic buildings justified the single-source award.
The motion to waive procurement and approve the purchase order was made and seconded; the board voted to approve the work. Staff said the vendor has experience on historic buildings around the state; the town had contacted references before moving forward.
