Cushing Selectboard approves two-year road maintenance contract with The Works
Summary
At its May 26 meeting the Cushing Selectboard voted 5-0 to approve a two-year, 'work-as-needed' road maintenance contract with The Works after accepting a revised estimate for summer 2026 work. The contract was amended from an initial one-year motion to two years.
The Cushing Selectboard voted unanimously on May 26 to approve a two-year road maintenance contract with The Works after the vendor supplied a revised estimate for summer 2026 work.
Select board member Cheryl Stackpole moved to enter a one-year contract with The Works; she then amended that motion to extend the agreement to two years, with Craig Currie seconding the amendment. The board recorded the motion as carried 5-0-0. The minutes describe the agreement as a 'work-as-needed' contract rather than a fixed-dollar bid and state The Works provided a new estimate of the work planned for summer 2026.
The selectboard discussed coordinating the summer agreement with winter road maintenance, per comments recorded in the minutes. No dollar amounts, payment schedule, or specific start and end dates for the two-year term appear in the minutes; the contract was described only by its duration and that work will be performed as needed.
The board signed the contract during new-business proceedings. The minutes do not record additional conditions, contingency approvals, or follow-up deadlines; staff were not recorded as presenting a full cost breakdown in the meeting minutes.
The board adjourned at 6:13 p.m.
