Selectboard awards Town Hall window contract to Farrington Construction after late bid
Summary
Under the Municipal Technical Assistance Program (MERP) project, the Selectboard reviewed two bids for Town Hall window replacement, rejected a late bid from Jason Hill, and unanimously hired Farrington Construction; project manager Tom Yandow will draft a letter of intent for the Feb. 16 meeting.
At the Feb. 2 meeting the Sandgate Selectboard voted to hire Farrington Construction of Shelburne to replace windows at Sandgate Town Hall under the Municipal Technical Assistance Program (MERP). Tom Yandow of PCI, the project manager for the town’s energy-related work, presented two bids: Farrington submitted its bid by the RFP deadline; a second bid from Jason Hill arrived after the deadline and was discussed but not accepted.
Board members discussed insurance coverage for both contractors and adherence to the posted request-for-proposal deadline. Selectboard member Linda Schmidt stated the town needed to abide by the RFP deadline; Rob Viglas agreed. Schmidt moved to hire Farrington Construction; Viglas seconded, and the motion passed unanimously.
Yandow said he will draft a letter of intent for the board to sign at the Feb. 16 Selectboard meeting. The minutes do not record contract dollar amounts, the timeline for work, or an expected completion date; those details were not specified in the meeting record and will be set in subsequent procurement paperwork.
