Select Board approves hoist electrical contract at Bernard Wharf and sells surplus dump truck
Summary
Tremont’s Select Board authorized a $12,945 contract with MCM Electric for Bernard Wharf hoist electrical work and awarded the surplus sale of a 2016 Ford F‑550 to William Gott for $5,100.
The Tremont Select Board on Dec. 15 authorized two operational actions for harbor equipment and municipal surplus.
The board unanimously authorized Harbormaster Tyler Damon to contract with MCM Electric for $12,945 to perform electrical work on the hoists at Bernard Wharf. The motion to authorize the contract was made by Select Board member Eric Eaton and seconded by Kevin Buck.
Separately, the board unanimously awarded the surplus sale bid for a 2016 Ford F‑550 dump truck to William Gott for $5,100 after a motion by Mr. Eaton and second by Mr. Buck.
Why it matters: The hoist electrical work is a targeted infrastructure maintenance action needed to keep Bernard Wharf equipment operable for marine operations and mooring handling; awarding the surplus vehicle disposes of unused municipal equipment and returns proceeds to the town.
Administrative notes: The motions were recorded in the minutes as authorizations for the Harbormaster to contract with a named vendor and as an award of a surplus sale bid. The minutes do not record further technical details about the hoist work scope beyond the vendor and contract amount.
At the meeting: Harbormaster Tyler Damon was present for the discussion; the board approved both actions unanimously.
