Newfields to rebid cemetery mowing after service shortfalls
Summary
The Select Board was told the cemetery mowing schedule is inadequate; the town will put mowing services out to bid this fall and plans to tie contractor payment to completion of required work.
Lynn Sweet acknowledged that the current mowing schedule was inadequate and apologized to the Board, saying the contractor has been unable to maintain the desired frequency despite repeated requests. She told the Board the mowing services will be put out to bid this fall.
Chairman Hoby Harmon emphasized that future contract terms should ensure contractors meet the required mowing schedule and suggested payment should be contingent on completion of the contracted work. The Board did not set a specific timeline for the rebid beyond the fall bid plan.
