Indian Lake awards 2025 garbage pickup contract to Justin Moore Construction
Summary
After reviewing bids and holding workshops, the Town Board approved a contract with Justin Moore Construction for 2025 garbage pickup and agreed the town will handle recycling operations for the year.
The Town of Indian Lake Board voted to enter into a contract with Justin Moore Construction for garbage pickup for fiscal year 2025. During the Nov. 14 meeting, Councilperson Rathbun moved to enter the contract and Councilperson Howard seconded; the motion passed with a roll-call tally recording Councilperson Mahoney and Councilperson Eldridge as Aye and Councilperson Rathbun recorded as Nay on the motion that ultimately passed.
The board had earlier discussed a received bid of $149,021.60 for garbage and $55,157.76 for recycling; that earlier motion to accept the bid was debated and tabled during prior meetings, and the board later resolved a contractual arrangement with Justin Moore Construction with the town assuming responsibility for recycling operations. The town clerk will publish the signed contract and update the town's procurement records.
Why it matters: municipal waste collection is a significant line item in the town budget and affects residents’ service levels and costs. The board discussed longer-term options, including procuring a garbage truck in the future, but approved the contractor arrangement for 2025 to ensure pickup continuity.
