Board extends highway spreader-parts contract for one year, notes requested price adjustments
Summary
The Danbury Board of Awards approved a one-year renewal of the annual highway spreader-parts contract with the incumbent vendor transcribed as 'Trius' (transcript also shows 'Trias'), including minor price adjustments on four items; the initial bid was noted to expire Nov. 14, 2025.
The Danbury Board of Awards voted to extend the annual unit-price contract for highway spreader parts for an additional year, the board heard on Nov. 5.
Tim Nolan, superintendent of public services, moved to renew the contract with the incumbent vendor transcribed in the record as “Trius” (the transcript also contains the spelling “Trias”) and to accept minor price adjustments on four of the 20 bid items. Chip Wilker said the initial bid expires Nov. 14, 2025, and that the vendor had asked to renew with price adjustments.
“Trius has corresponded that they would like to renew, but they’ve asked for price adjustments and then minor adjustments on 4 of the 20 items listed,” Wilker said.
A board member seconded the motion and the transcript records the motion carried unanimously; the meeting record does not provide a roll-call tally of yes/no votes. The board did not detail the exact dollar impact of the price adjustments during the discussion recorded in the transcript.
The extension preserves continuity for parts procurement for the city’s highway operations while staff will proceed under the existing cooperative purchasing terms and the board’s approval.
