Summary
The Somerset County Commission awarded a contract to Core/Main (Westbrook) for geotextile fabric used in Unorganized Territory road maintenance, accepting the lowest bid of $8,700. The same meeting recorded the earlier bid openings and a staff recommendation to accept the low bid.
The Somerset County Commission voted April 1 to award a contract for geotextile fabrics used in road maintenance in the Unorganized Territory to Core/Main of Westbrook for $8,700. The award (Resolution 26-55) followed a public bid opening that listed five vendors, with Core/Main submitting the lowest bid.
U/T Coordinator Dave Spencer recommended accepting the lowest bid after the March 1 bid opening, in which Paris Farm (Oxford) bid $9,600, FW Webb (Oakland) bid $10,500, Whitecap (Augusta) bid $11,640, and Contractors Choice (Windsor) bid $11,700. Commissioner Don Skillings moved to award the contract to Core/Main; Commissioner John Alsop seconded, and the motion carried 4-0.
The purchase is intended for routine road maintenance in the Unorganized Territory; Spencer also said he is finalizing snowmobile grants for clubs in the U/T in the same funding period. The minutes do not specify contract duration, delivery schedule, or the account charged for the purchase.
