Transfer Station paving bids for 2026 budgeting range from $57,923 to $82,696, board asks for vendor 2026 projections
Summary
Transfer Station Supervisor Rusty Scott presented paving bids for the facility and said he will request a smaller snow pusher in the 2026 budget. Bids ranged from $57,923 to $82,696; the board asked vendors for projected 2026 price increases to inform budgeting.
Rusty Scott, Transfer Station Supervisor, told the Select Board the new loader reached 300 hours and that he will include a request for a smaller snow pusher in the 2026 budget. He also presented paving bids for the transfer station and asked the board to open them so the department can budget accurately for 2026.
The bids reported in the minutes were: Central Asphalt — three inches of asphalt, $57,923; BlakTop — Option 1 (three inches) $64,206.72, Option 2 (3½ inches) $73,611.04, Option 3 (four inches) $82,696.50; and Pike Industries — three inches, $76,120. The board discussed the options and asked Scott to ask each vendor for their projected price increase in 2026 to improve budgeting accuracy.
Selectman Shane Beattie commented that three inches is a typical depth for the town. No formal motion to accept any bid or to authorize immediate expenditure was recorded; Rusty Scott will return with vendor cost projections for the 2026 budget process.
