Summary

Council reviewed increased estimates to grade the cemetery and town alleys and instructed staff to use the small works roster to obtain at least two additional bids once funding is secured.

Council reviewed updated estimates from contractor Arne Svendsen to grade the town cemetery and alleys and noted that costs have risen since the last time the work was done. Clerk informed the council the project total will exceed $5,000 and that state small‑works procurement rules require obtaining additional bids from a small works roster.
