Staff updates Selectboard on road work, chloride price and truck repairs
Summary
A town roads staff member told the Fairfield Selectboard that chloride will cost $1.28/gal this year and that one truck with a brake problem was sent back to Hayes; road crews are using the grader for maintenance.
Moe, a staff member speaking during the April 13 Selectboard meeting, told the board that “Chloride will be $1.28/gal this year compared to $1.20/gal last year.” The update also noted that all trucks are back in service except for one that has a brake problem on one side and was sent to Hayes for repair; the crew has continued maintenance work with the grader.
The remark came during routine roads business; no formal action was taken. The board did not specify a timeline for the truck repair or an estimated cost for that work. The roads briefing also served as a reminder that fuel and materials costs have edged up year over year, a factor likely to influence upcoming paving and maintenance budgeting discussions.
