Selectboard renews Cota & Cota fuel contract for another year without rebidding
Summary
The Selectboard agreed to renew the town’s longstanding fuel supplier contract with Cota & Cota for one year despite the contract exceeding the $5,000 bid threshold, deciding not to rebid.
The Selectboard reviewed a renewal contract from Cota & Cota for fuel delivery to all three town buildings and agreed to renew the contract for another year without rebidding despite the cost exceeding the town’s $5,000 threshold for competitive procurement.
Town Administrator Aileen Tulloch raised the procurement threshold question and noted that Cota & Cota is the longstanding supplier. Board members agreed to sign for another year; Tom Cavanagh moved to sign the contract and the motion passed unanimously.
The minutes do not list the contract dollar amount or the rationale beyond the vendor’s longstanding relationship; the board did not direct a rebid at this meeting.
