Select Board reviews solid‑waste hauling bids, recommends lowest bidder
Summary
The Select Board reviewed four bids for compact waste hauling; a Selectman recommended the lowest bidder (identified in the transcript as 'Almighty Waste') and the Chair called for an 'all in favor' vote; the transcript does not record a named vote tally.
The Select Board reviewed responses to a re-issued RFP for compact waste hauling and heard a short recap from a Selectman (Speaker 4). Four bids were received; the Selectman summarized bid amounts and said the lowest bidder has historically done hauling for the town and had been responsive in prior work.
"We received four bids... in the past Almighty has done the hauling for us. They were good to work with. They were responsive," the Selectman said, and recommended awarding the contract to the lowest bidder. The Chair asked whether the motion had been seconded and then called for an 'all in favor' vote; the transcript does not record a named roll-call or final tally.
The board also discussed schedule and next steps for signing a contract; the transcript does not include the exact motion language, mover/second names or a detailed vote record for the award.
Background: the RFP was re-issued after earlier bids came in higher than expected; Pine Tree Engineering is handling aspects of bid collection for other road projects mentioned elsewhere in the meeting.
