Selectboard discusses VTrans permanent bridge contract and digital signer; members request time to review
Summary
Town staff told the board VTrans has a permanent-bridge contract that requires a designated digital signer; the board asked for hard copies and time to review before appointing someone to sign digitally.
Town staff advised the board that, because the town is proceeding with a permanent Fox Stand Bridge rather than a temporary structure, VTrans has provided a permanent-bridge agreement that requires a designated digital signer. The staff member told the board the wording is similar to the temporary-bridge contract but that the permanent contract contains different funding amounts and must be signed digitally by an appointed town official.
Board members said they would like to review a hard copy before appointing a signer and asked staff to provide printed copies. One member suggested a short special meeting (15 minutes) if needed; another said they expected the standard approval timeline would be sufficient and that staff could email copies in advance. Staff agreed to circulate the contract and to prepare a printout for review prior to signing.
