Summary

After reviewing four bids, the council approved a contract with Pettigrew Painting LLC to refurbish and restain town‑hall wood trim, approve power‑washing and two coats of finish; council voted unanimously.

Council reviewed four bids to refurbish and restain the wood trim at town hall, including previous contractors who worked on the deck and shutters. Mayor Brooke Lyon explained the vetting process and discussed bid differences in scope and pricing. After discussion about power‑washing and surface preparation, Councilmember moved to award the contract to Pettigrew Painting LLC, which the mayor said offered a midrange price and appropriate scope (power wash, rough sand and two finish coats). The motion passed unanimously in roll call.

Councilmembers said the work should protect trim from further damage and defer larger siding work unless inspections show replacement is necessary; staff will monitor and report back if additional repairs become necessary.
