Resident asks Selectmen for records on building needs assessment procurement
Summary
A resident said he filed records requests seeking the RFP and contract for the town’s public needs assessment, reported receiving an email that the scope was provided by phone, and asked under what ordinance the services were obtained; the town manager said the board will receive an answer at the next meeting.
Bob Beauregard addressed the board during public comment to ask for transparency about the town’s public needs assessment procurement. He said he filed public records requests (FOIA/FOA) for the request for proposals and contract documents with Wright‑Pierce and received an email indicating the scope of work may have been provided orally by phone.
Beauregard asked whether the procurement was handled as a formal RFP or was effectively sole‑sourced, and under which policy or ordinance the services were obtained. The town manager responded that he would prepare an answer for the board and present it at the next meeting.
The board did not provide documents during the meeting and agreed to return with written clarification.
