Select Board awards Thurston Park Ridge Trail contract to lowest bidder, Reardon Brothers, for $14,500
Summary
After an initial vote to accept SD Childs failed, the China Select Board approved a $14,500 contract with Reardon Brothers for the Ridge Trail at Thurston Park; the vote was 4-1 with Thomas Rumpf opposing.
The China Select Board voted Oct. 6 to award the Ridge Trail contract at Thurston Park to Reardon Brothers for $14,500.
An earlier motion to accept SD Childs' bid was rejected (2 in favor — Wayne Chadwick and Thomas Rumpf; 3 opposed — Blane Casey, Jeanne Marquis and Edwin Bailey). The board then moved to accept the lowest bidder, Reardon Brothers, on a motion by Edwin Bailey, seconded by Blane Casey. That motion passed 4-1; Thomas Rumpf cast the lone opposing vote.
The minutes record the board discussed the relative closeness of bids and prior satisfactory work by SD Childs but do not include a written breakdown of bids or a public comment on bidder selection. The contract award was recorded as an approved motion in the minutes.
