Council discusses street‑sweeping contract; members cite $5,500 annual figure and per‑curb‑mile rates
Summary
Council members and staff discussed the town’s street‑sweeper operations and contract terms, including an approximate $5,500 yearly figure and per‑curb‑mile rates; a motion to approve the sweeping contract was made and seconded but no vote is recorded in the transcript.
Council participants discussed the town’s street‑sweeper and a proposed sweeping contract. One speaker approximated the annual cost as "It's like $5,500 a year" and gave per‑curb‑mile rates, saying "360 per curb mile and 450 per curb mile." A staff member described operations, saying the sweeper is scheduled roughly eight hours a week on overtime with two staff rotating four‑hour shifts (one works at night, the other early morning).
After operational details and some unrelated scheduling conversation, a council member moved to approve the street‑sweeping contract and another participant seconded the motion ("I make that motion to approve this ... sweeping contract. I will second that motion."). The transcript records motion and second but does not record a formal vote tally or a recorded outcome in the supplied excerpt.
The transcript includes no contract document text, no vendor name tied to the dollar figures, and no timeline for implementation. Recorded figures (the $5,500 annual figure and the per‑curb‑mile rates) are stated in the discussion; the transcript does not show further negotiation or a recorded roll‑call vote.
