Millis approves vehicle purchases, engineering contract and Oak Grove Farm roof work
The Select Board approved several procurement items Wednesday that the town said were previously authorized by town meeting appropriations.

Equipment purchases: the board authorized the town administrator to sign a contract with Boston Freightliner Inc. to purchase a 2025 Freightliner dump truck with plow and sander for an amount not to exceed $264,850. Board members noted additional costs for a radio and painting will be handled separately.

United Rentals: the board approved a 2025 boom lift purchase from United Rentals for an amount not to exceed $52,923 after soliciting three bids.

Engineering services: the board approved a contract with GCG Associates for inflow and infiltration investigations (I&I) in an amount not to exceed $137,630.

Oak Grove Farm roof: using Community Preservation Committee funds for phase one, the board awarded a contract to Canoni Roofing (Natick) for reroofing the farmhouse, porch and a shed at Oak Grove Farm for an amount not to exceed $38,850. The work uses CertainTeed Presidential AR shingles (35-year warranty); town staff said shingles had previously been delayed in production but are now available. The building is currently vacant and will be put out to bid for a caretaker/tenant once renovations are complete.

All motions were moved, seconded and approved by unanimous votes.
