Select Board reaffirms Mumbly engineering approval, approves $1,965 change order and moves forward on conservation easement
Summary
The board reaffirmed a December 2024 vote to approve revisions to Mumbly Engineering's contract for the industrial park and approved a $1,965 change order to cover extra pump‑station analysis invoices; it also authorized advertising a conservation easement to mitigate deer-wintering impacts and approved conveyance language subject to attorney review.
Select Board members voted to reaffirm their Dec. 16, 2024 approval of Mumbly (Mummley) Engineering's contract revision for work on the town's industrial park and to approve a $1,965 change order to cover three invoices for pump-station analysis and recommendations that were outside the original scope.
“Move to reaffirm the select board's vote on 12/16/2024 to approve the Mummley Engineering Industrial Park Engineering Services grama revision dated 12/11/2024,” a board member moved; the motion carried by voice vote. The board then approved the change order to pay invoices totaling $1,965 for work analyzing Highland Heights pump-station capacity and recommending solutions the village accepted.
At the same meeting the board also voted to authorize advertising the conveyance of a conservation easement (deer-wintering habitat mitigation) and to empower the chair or town administrator to execute required notices and instruments, subject to final attorney review. The easement language and a related motion to declare covenant over specified acreage were presented as part of permitting and act 250 mitigation for the industrial‑park project.
Why this matters: these votes advance the town’s industrial-park permitting and construction steps by resolving outstanding contract approvals, covering invoices for additional engineering work, and putting mitigation steps in motion through a conservation easement.
