Select Board reviews Ciardelli Fuel Co. quotes; board cites possible one‑year payoff for tank contract
Summary
Select Board member Ken Caisse presented competitive quotes from Ciardelli Fuel Co., saying tank and propane prices appear competitive and that projected savings could allow the town to pay off the tank contract in about one year; the board awaits a counteroffer from another company.
Ken Caisse told the Select Board he had received quotes from Ciardelli Fuel Co. that showed competitive pricing for the municipal tank and for propane. Caisse said the projected savings could allow the town to pay off the tank contract in roughly one year and noted an option to pre‑purchase heating oil and off‑road diesel early next year that could yield further savings. He said he is awaiting a counteroffer from another company.
The board recorded the update but did not take a formal vote on selecting a provider at the Feb. 10 meeting. The minutes do not list projected dollar amounts for the expected savings or a timetable for a vendor decision; Caisse described the payoff time as approximately one year.
