Selectmen approve stormwater engineering and award solid‑waste contract
Summary
Dover selectmen approved a multiyear MS4 consulting agreement with Woodard & Curran (subject to town counsel review of payment terms) and awarded a one‑year solid waste removal contract to BP Trucking with renewal options.
The Dover Board of Selectmen approved two service contracts affecting town operations.
Town staff presented a multiyear professional services proposal from Woodard & Curran for MS4 stormwater permitting and stormwater management work. The town administrator said funding for the work is included in the DPW’s FY27 operating budget and that the warrant committee approved a small increase for the line item. Town counsel will review two contract provisions identified by staff — payment timing (request to extend payment from 30 to 45 or 60 days) and clarification of miscellaneous direct expenses — before the agreement is finalized. The board moved to approve the agreement subject to the town administrator’s review with town counsel and voted in favor.
On solid waste services, staff reported they received a single bid from the incumbent vendor, which held FY26 pricing. The board moved to award a one‑year contract (with options to renew for two additional years) to BP Trucking as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; the motion passed on recorded ayes.
Both votes were recorded as in‑favor by the selectmen present. Staff said the stormwater contract is part of a multiyear program and the solid‑waste award maintains service continuity at current pricing for the town.
