Selectboard awards North Road paving contract to Pike
Summary
After opening and comparing three bids for North Road work, the Eden Selectboard voted to accept Pike's bid, citing price and prior work; payment coordination will be handled directly between Pike and a third party, Eustis.
The Eden Selectboard opened three bids for North Road pavement work and voted to award the contract to Pike at the Dec. 9 meeting. Bids submitted included Gray’s Paving, All State Construction, and Pike; the board selected Pike based on price and its past work with the town.
Tim Bullard moved to accept Pike’s bid; Clayton Whittemore seconded and the motion carried. The Selectboard discussed payment logistics: Eustis had called earlier asking whether the town wanted the check or for payment to be made directly to Pike; the board instructed Eustis to work directly with Pike and asked Norm Patenaude (Pike) to keep the town updated if there are payment coordination issues.
Why it matters: The decision moves forward a road improvement project affecting North Road surface conditions and local travel. The agreement to have Eustis coordinate payment aims to expedite construction.
