Summary
The board moved, seconded and approved a voice vote to buy a used 5‑foot Kubota angle blade (for sidewalk scraping) for up to $1,400; the motion passed by voice vote and staff were authorized to complete the purchase.
The select board considered and approved a motion to purchase a used 5‑foot Kubota angle blade to improve sidewalk clearing. A select board member moved the purchase and, after brief discussion about utility and condition, the board approved the purchase by voice vote: “Motion's been made and seconded to purchase this used, all angle blade. Up to $1,400.”
The motion was seconded and the chair called for ayes; members answered in the affirmative and the purchase authorization passed. The blade was described as useful for scraping the final inch of packed snow from sidewalks where the town’s snowblower doesn’t reach.
