The full story

Brad Lackey told the commission that the lowest bid received last year for tree removal at Green Cemetery was $40,000 and that, under procurement expectations, the town will need three written bids followed by selectboard approval before the work can proceed. Brad offered to draft a proposal and re-send it to the two contractors he had previously solicited and noted the commission could announce the procurement in Town Hall and local newspapers.
