Selectboard awards mowing contract to Combs Family Property Maintenance
Summary
The Richford Selectboard awarded the town mowing contract to Combs Family Property Maintenance after reviewing two bids. The chosen bid lists $52,000 for year one with adjustments for years two and three; the vote passed 3-1 with one abstention.
The Town of Richford Selectboard voted Dec. 1 to award the municipal mowing contract to Combs Family Property Maintenance, whose bid listed $52,000 for the first year. Town Administrator Marissa Tessier publicly opened two bids: Tanner’s Excavation at $54,500 and Combs Family Property Maintenance at $52,000 (with pricing for years two and three subject to annual cost‑of‑living adjustments not to exceed 4%).
After discussion, Selectwoman Sherry Paquette moved to award the contract to Combs Family Property Maintenance; Chair Steinhour seconded. "Motion passed 3-1 with Selectman Pond abstaining," the minutes state. The motion record does not list individual yes/no votes by name in the public minutes. The record does not specify who will administer the contract or the contract start date.
The contract award follows the advertised bid opening and will be incorporated into upcoming department budget reviews. The minutes do not include the contract length in years beyond the year‑two/three pricing adjustment language, nor do they include specific start/award dates or an assigned contract manager.
