Summary

The Selectboard accepted Blaktop, Inc.'s low paving bid for a 1.3-mile Swamp Road project at $97.37/ton ($98.94/ton with fine grading) and accepted Pike Industries' reclamation bid at $6.70/square yard; both actions were moved and seconded.

Selectboard member Shauna Prime recommended the town accept a low paving bid from Blaktop, Inc. to repave 1.3 miles of Swamp Road. The Board approved the recommendation; the paving bid was $97.37 per ton and $98.94 per ton if fine grading is included (motion by Shauna Prime; second by Andrew Lee).

The Board also accepted a separate reclamation bid from Pike Industries at $6.70 per square yard, a step Ms. Prime said can yield better pricing when reclaimed separately from paving (motion by Andrew Lee; second by Susan Culp). The Board did not record a roll-call tally in the minutes but documented the motions and seconds.
