Sugar Hill selectmen authorize Crane Hill Bridge replacement agreements
Summary
Selectmen authorized Selectman Chris Ellms to sign state and federal agreements and signed a Notice of Award and engineering services proposal for the Crane Hill Bridge replacement, advancing the project toward construction.
Sugar Hill selectmen on Aug. 4 authorized construction agreements and signatures to advance replacement of the Crane Hill Bridge.
Selectman Chris Ellms was authorized in a signed letter from Selectmen Dick Bielefield and Rusty Talbot to execute project documents. Following that authorization, Ellms signed a State Bridge Aid and Federal Aid Program Amended Project Agreement, a Proposal for Professional Construction Engineering Services with Turner Group & Hoyle & Tanner, and the project's Notice of Award.
The measures were handled as part of the board's routine business and reflect the town's use of state and federal bridge aid programs to fund replacement work. The board did not record a separate roll-call vote on the authorization in the minutes; the meeting record states the two selectmen signed a letter authorizing Ellms to sign documentation and that Ellms executed the listed agreements.
The agreements name Turner Group & Hoyle & Tanner as the professional construction engineering consultants and include the formal Notice of Award for the project. Selectmen did not provide dollar amounts or specific contract dates in the minutes; those details were not specified.
The board also approved the previous meeting's minutes by motion of Selectman Dick Bielefield, seconded by Selectman Chris Ellms; the motion passed unanimously.
The next procedural step noted in the minutes is document execution and project administration under the State Bridge Aid and Federal Aid programs. The town did not specify a construction start date in the record.
