Select Board authorizes B&B Tree Service for Lessner Road and cemetery tree removal

Summary

After reviewing three bids for municipal tree work, the board authorized B&B Tree Service to perform tree removal on Lessner Road and at Hillside Cemetery, citing the contractor's fixed-price bid and off-site disposal capacity.

The board authorized contracting with B&B (B and B) Tree Service to remove trees along Lessner Road and perform earlier-planned work at Hillside Cemetery. Staff and board members discussed bid differences, including fixed-price guarantees and references, and noted B&B's lower fixed bid allowed the town to proceed without an open-ended hourly contingency.

Board members asked staff to notify affected property owners and coordinate on flagging and access; staff also noted the contractor would keep wood and had offered an off-site dump option rather than using the town garage. The motions to authorize the town manager to enter agreements with B&B Tree Service were seconded and approved by voice vote.
