Select Board adopts MARK drug‑and‑alcohol policy to keep vendor contract current
Summary
The board adopted a 2017 MARK drug‑and‑alcohol policy as presented and authorized a letter documenting the adoption so MARK drivers and the town liaison can sign and keep the vendor contract valid.
The Select Board voted to adopt a MARK vendor drug‑and‑alcohol policy from 2017 to satisfy a contract requirement and keep the vendor relationship in force.
Tricia explained that MARK or the vendor had not updated its policy in several years and that the town needed to formally adopt the policy on record so drivers could sign and the contract would remain valid. "All they have to do is adopt the policy… then I write a letter… saying we adopted the policy on such and such date at this meeting," Tricia said, describing the administrative steps that follow adoption.
The board moved to accept the policy as presented and voted in favor by voice vote. Tricia said the town would send a letter confirming adoption to MARK, after which drivers would sign the policy alongside Sharon, the town liaison, and the matter would be closed until MARK updates the policy in the future.
The board recorded a voice vote approving the adoption; no roll‑call of individual member votes was recorded in the transcript.
