Select Board awards Pudding Hill cleanup; town places lien on Berry property for cleanup costs
Summary
The board accepted a $21,700 bid from Nick's Landscaping and Firewood to clear the Pudding Hill property; the town is placing a $21,000 lien on Gale and Lorraine Berry for the cleanup and will cover a $700 overage plus an $800 attorney fee.
The Select Board voted to accept a bid from Nick's Landscaping and Firewood for $21,700 to clean up the outside of a Pudding Hill residence. The minutes record that the town will place a $21,000 lien against the property owned by Gale and Lorraine Berry; the town holds a notarized agreement from the Berrys stating they are responsible for the $21,000 cleanup cost.
Because the accepted bid exceeded the liened amount by $700, the town will cover the $700 overage and an $800 attorney fee associated with drawing the lien. The motion to accept the $21,700 bid passed with Chair Tim Simpson and Select Board member Denis Royer II voting yes and Joe Solinsky voting nay.
