Cushing selectmen vote to put Food Pantry roof replacement out to bid
Summary
After a heavy rain left a large puddle on the floor, the Cushing selectmen voted 4-0 on Oct. 12, 2015 to put replacement of the Food Pantry roof out to bid; an on-site estimate cited about $3,000 and the board chose regular shingles.
On Oct. 12, 2015, the Town of Cushing selectmen voted 4-0 to put replacement of the Cushing Food Pantry roof out to bid after a recent heavy rain caused a large puddle on the pantry floor.
Chair Alton Grover reported the leak and said the water pooled on the floor. Gary Grant estimated the cost to replace the roof at $3,000, and Selectman Daniel Staples moved — with Selectman Laurie Haynes seconding — to solicit bids for the work. The motion carried 4-0-0. When asked whether to use regular or architectural shingles, the board agreed on regular shingles.
The vote authorizes staff to begin a competitive procurement for the roof replacement; the minutes do not record a timeline for bids or a funding source. The board’s recorded vote was Daniel Staples (yes), Laurie Haynes (yes), Heidi Alley (yes), and Alton Grover (yes).
Next steps: staff will put the roof replacement out to bid per the board’s motion; the meeting record does not specify a bid-opening date or budget line for the project.
