Select Board accepts Fuller Sand & Gravel bid for town paving project
Summary
After opening three bids for town paving, the board accepted Fuller Sand & Gravel's bid (stated total $126,059) for the resurfacing project and instructed staff on next steps for contracting.
The Tinmouth Select Board voted to accept a paving bid from Fuller Sand & Gravel during its May 8 meeting.
Fuller Sand & Gravel's bid was presented to the board as a total of $126,059, including line items for bituminous concrete pavement at $88 per ton and milling on the bridge. Committee member (Speaker 1) moved to accept Fuller's bid and the motion was seconded; the board approved the motion during the meeting. "I will move that we accept Fuller's bid," the member said during the motion.
The board had opened multiple bids earlier in the meeting. Another bidder's totals cited during the session included a $133,196 figure for one vendor (unit price $93.80, 15% recycled asphalt product noted) and a $146,169 total calculated for another bidder after bridge and milling lump-sum items were included. Board members discussed that estimated tonnages and milling assumptions can materially affect grand totals and said staff will follow up with the contractor on timing and the contract signature process.
Board members did not provide a recorded roll-call vote with named tallies in the transcript; the motion was recorded as made, seconded, and approved. The board asked staff to keep bid documents on file and arrange for contract signature and scheduling.
