Summary

Administrator Erin Braband presented additions to the grass‑cutting/landscape RFP — adding Town Hall services, leaf removal for town properties, and an alternate for contractor‑supplied vs. Town‑supplied materials; the council voted unanimously to put the revised RFP out to bid with twice‑yearly mulching.

Administrator Erin Braband compiled staff requests for the grass cutting and landscape RFP, including adding services at Town Hall and leaf removal across town properties. President Newnam asked for mulching to be increased to twice a year and for an alternate pricing line for contractors to include material‑supplied and Town‑supplied options. "Administrator Braband stated that services at Town Hall need to be added to the list as well as leaf removal for all Town properties," the minutes record.

Commissioner Walter Chase moved to issue the revised RFP with those revisions; President Newnam seconded and the motion passed unanimously. Staff will issue the RFP and return bids for council consideration; the minutes did not record target bid-opening dates or estimated contract amounts.
