Police chief briefs selectmen on roof and HVAC replacements; vendors recommended, no formal vote
Summary
Chief Tucker told the Greenland Board of Selectmen that budgeted projects to replace the police station roof and a failing HVAC unit have vendor recommendations; the board discussed bids and service but did not record a formal vote.
Chief Tucker and Lieutenant Detorgle briefed the Greenland Board of Selectmen on two budgeted facilities projects: replacement of the police station roof and replacement of an aging HVAC unit original to the building.
Chief Tucker said the town issued RFPs and received multiple bids: four for roofing and three for HVAC work. For the roof, the chief recommended using a Greenland-based contractor, Encore's Remodeling, which quoted about $2,100 more than the lowest bid but includes metal in roof valleys and an upgraded shingle at the same price as standard work. On HVAC, the chief recommended East Coast HVAC, a vendor the town has used before; that quote was about $2,300 over the lowest bid but offered a higher-BTU, higher-efficiency furnace.
Chief Tucker described a recent drone inspection that helped identify hard-to-see roof issues and said the building dates to February 2001. Board members asked about post-installation service; the chief said annual service is bid separately but that the recommended HVAC firm has provided reliable service in the past.
No motion or contract authorization was recorded in the meeting transcript. The chief said he would work with recommended vendors on scheduling and return with details as work is arranged.
