AGENDA MODIFICATIONS

The Agenda was accepted as written.

NEW BUSINESS

Review of proposals received for the RT 5 Corridor Action Plan Project

Two proposals were reviewed: Dubois and King (D&K) and Place Sense

The Selectboard wanted to make sure the proposal selected will bring forth a working project versus another “plan development” that does not have a tangible end to the project

The Selectboard reviewed all aspects of the proposals: completeness, presentation, the hours the firm will give to the project tasks, and the elements that were included in each proposal that stood out 

The consensus of the Selectboard was that they were leaning towards selecting D&K

The Selectboard still has questions regarding the D&K proposal and asked that Tad invite the firm for an interview

The proposals are to be sent to Jackie from VTrans and Richard of the Vermont Department of Housing and Community Development and Rita of TRORC for their review

MOTION: Cathy McGrath/Josh Hickman moved/seconded the motion to adjourn the meeting.

ADJOURN: The meeting was adjourned at 9:55 AM.
