Town seeks site visit and may raise approval to $15,000 for cleanup at 605 Mountain View Road
Summary
Select Board discussed contractor estimates and a recommended site visit for cleanup at 605 Mountain View Road; the board may raise its approval threshold to $15,000 to allow work without a formal bid depending on the site-visit results.
The board discussed options for removing accumulated waste at 605 Mountain View Road. S1 said East Coast provided a rough site-visit estimate and recommended an on-site inspection before final pricing; the contractor estimated the site visit would cost between $5,000 and $10,000 to prepare a full proposal.
S1 told the board that increasing the board's approval threshold to $15,000 could permit the work to proceed without a formal bidding process depending on what the site visit reveals: "So if we up our approval to 15,000, we may be covered and not go out to bid," S1 said. The board asked staff to coordinate the site visit and to bring a draft agreement and cost estimate back for review.
