Select Board reviews RMS report and approves manifest including $65,552.76 chip-seal payment
Summary
The Select Board reviewed a road management system (RMS) report used to prioritize pavement maintenance and approved the manifest that included a $65,552.76 payment to All States Construction for a chip-seal project; the manifest totaled $150,056.22.
The Brookfield Select Board discussed the Road Management System (RMS) report from the Stratford Regional Planning Commission, which rates paved town roads and lays out a 10-year maintenance budget to keep roads above target condition levels. Staff said the report provides a roadmap for prioritizing resurfacing and maintenance and will help justify annual roadway budget requests.
Road agent Chris reported traffic-count results from Blythe Road and Moose Mountain Road, noting Moose Mountain Road measured roughly 500 vehicles per day and the other road slightly less. The RMS report will be made available in color-bound copies and online.
During the meeting the board approved the manifest, which included a payment to All States Construction for a single chip-seal with sweeping in the amount of $65,552.76. The manifest total approved by the board was $150,056.22. Board members stated they had been in regular contact with the contractor and expected the work to proceed as scheduled.
The board also discussed paying prior invoices and noted the chip-seal work and a related paving schedule (grinding on Moose Mountain Road) with a tentative date mentioned in conversation.
