The Seymour Board of Select Persons voted to award a contract to Griffin Brothers Excavation LLC to reconstruct the driveway along Mill Street following flood damage, accepting the lowest bid of $225,240.

Board discussion included confirmation that the procurement followed bid procedures and that the project falls under DR 4820 flood-reconstruction work. No minority/contractor disqualification or other objections were recorded in the meeting minutes.
The board’s vote authorizes staff to proceed with award and contracting consistent with state funding requirements; the motion as recorded: motion to use Griffin Brothers Excavation LLC to reconstruct Mill Street in the amount of $225,240 (motion by Trish; second by Al).
