Summary
Road Foreman Jeff Yrsha told the Selectboard both the town’s salt and sand sheds are full and recommended ordering Cargill salt at $98.25 per ton for 425 tons; the board approved the purchase, citing winter preparedness.
Road Foreman Jeff Yrsha briefed the Selectboard on current maintenance and winter readiness, reporting that "both the salt and sand sheds are full," and that trucks will soon be oil undercoated. He said new culverts are being purchased and that he did not expect to need additional materials until after the start of the year.
After reviewing a Cargill Road Salt quote, the board approved signing the contract at $98.25 per ton for 425 tons—approximately $42,500—on a motion by Selectboard member Katie Fitzpatrick, seconded by Linda Saarnijoki and unanimously approved. Shawna Batogowski said she would ensure the quote and paperwork are included with town procurement records.
