Calais council accepts sealed bids; Jim Davis wins docks and gangway, stabilizing arms reawarded
Summary
Sealed bids opened at noon; council accepted high bids (Jim Davis at $3,600) for Floating Dock #1, Floating Dock #2 and a 60-foot aluminum gangway and sold stabilizing arms to a second-highest bidder after the top bidder declined the arms.
At the meeting the council opened sealed bids for several waterfront items and approved sales to the highest (or, where applicable, next-highest) bidders.
City Manager Mike read the bids opened at noon and listed the bidders and amounts. For Floating Dock No. 1, the high bid was $3,600 from Jim Davis; council members moved to sell to the high bidder and a voice vote was recorded in support. For Floating Dock No. 2 and the 60-foot aluminum gangway, Mike again reported Jim Davis as the high bidder at $3,600 and council moved to accept the sales.
For the stabilizing arms, John and Rhonda Chambers were the apparent high bidders but declined the arms; the council offered the item to the next-highest bidder, Earl Small, who accepted for $5.25. A council member moved to resell the arms to Small and the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote.
The meeting transcript records motions and voice votes but does not record detailed roll-call tallies or consistently name who made each motion; where a mover or formal vote tally was not recorded in the transcript, the council’s voice approval is noted in the record.
The council completed the disposition of these municipal items and moved on to other business.
