Board moves to pursue written contracts for mower/operator; meets briefly in executive session
Summary
Selectboard authorized staff to pursue written contracts and outreach to other towns for mower availability and a contract operator; it held two brief executive sessions (contractors and personnel) and took no action in executive session.
The board discussed options for getting a town mower operational and contracting an operator. Members reviewed several hourly price options, insurance for town equipment, and whether to solicit bids; one member moved that the board contact nearby towns and pursue a written contract for a mower operator to ensure availability.
In the discussion, a board member said, “I'll make the motion that I contact the latest cities and towns about ensuring our mower and a contract operator based on availability to more the wrong sides.” The board then moved into executive session to discuss proposed contractors and later held a second executive session on personnel; both executive sessions ended with no action taken and the board returned to direct staff to seek written contract options and clarify insurance arrangements.
