Orford Selectboard accepts auditor adjustments, approves vendor contract and routine motions
Summary
The board accepted the MS-535 (auditor adjustments), approved the Twin Bridge Services contract for 2024 and passed routine motions including approval of prior minutes and adjournment; several actions were unanimous 3–0.
At its Aug. 14 meeting the Orford Selectboard handled a set of routine but required actions: it accepted the MS-535 report reflecting auditors’ adjustments to the 2023 budget-to-actual figures, approved and signed the Twin Bridge Services contract for calendar year 2024, accepted the minutes of July 24, 2024 (as amended), and adjourned the meeting by affirmative votes.
Motion details and outcomes recorded in the minutes include: • Approval of minutes of July 24, 2024: motion by Larry Taylor, second by Kevin Follensbee; motion passed 3–0. • Acceptance of MS-535 (auditor adjustments posted): motion by Larry Taylor, second by Kevin Follensbee; motion passed 3–0. • Twin Bridge Services contract for 2024: contract was approved and signed by the Selectboard chair (no roll-call recorded in minutes). • Adjournment: motion by Larry Taylor, second by Kevin Follensbee; motion passed 3–0.
Other administrative items noted: the deadline for bids on a 2013 International truck was Aug. 15 at 1:00 p.m.; one bid of $15,000 had been received and the board authorized accepting the highest bid after close. Road Agent Ted Nutter requested delaying posting the 2019 F-550 for sale until he returns from vacation so the sander and plow can be added; this will be revisited at the Aug. 28 meeting.
The minutes do not record roll-call details for the Twin Bridge contract beyond notation that the chair signed the agreement.
