The board approved a letter supporting Western Maine Mtn Housing's $1.5 million grant application for sewer and road maintenance at Bigelow Hill to the Northern Border Regional Commission. This indicates a planned infrastructure upgrade contingent on external funding. Infrastructure, engineering, grant-writing, and project management vendors can monitor this grant and be ready to help scope, design, or deliver sewer and road work if funding is awarded.
Grant Funding
$1,500,000Apr 8, 2026The Select Board approved a 10% increase and accepted Scrib's Excavation for a three‑year plow contract from 2026 to 2029 at $77,000 per year. This locks in the vendor and pricing for general town plowing over the term. Vendors now know Scrib's is the incumbent and can target future support, subcontracting, equipment supply, or position for the next rebid cycle after 2029.
Contract Award
$231,000May 26, 2026The Jay Selectboard reviewed an Axon quote for 10 Taser 10 units plus on-site instructor and VR training, totaling $71,398 over 5 years. Board members want details on funding source, savings for an upfront purchase, and pricing for fewer than 10 units; the decision was tabled to the next meeting. This is an active need for less-lethal devices and training, and the department may still evaluate scope, financing, and options before committing.
Pre-RFP
$71,398May 26, 2026During the May 26, 2026 meeting, Public Works presented two quotes for hot top paving on Church Hill, High Street, Birch Lane, and Shady Lane, including shim and surface work. The Select Board accepted the lower bid of $132,765.60 from Pike Industries over a $137,000 quote from Fine Line Paving, and the board chair signed the lease associated with the project. This confirms Pike Industries as the paving contractor for this package of local road improvements and indicates active investment in roadway maintenance. Vendors in construction, materials, traffic control, or inspection can view this as incumbent intelligence and a signal that Strong is funding road projects at six‑figure levels, which may lead to future bids or related work.
Contract Award
$132,765May 26, 2026Wilton sold a 2017 International truck and a 2007 GMC truck via Auctions International for a total of $18,010, and returned the proceeds to the Highway Capital Equipment Account. This confirms an active capital fund dedicated to future highway equipment purchases or replacements, but no specific new equipment has been selected yet. Fleet, truck, and heavy equipment vendors should view this as a live funding source and begin conversations about upcoming replacement needs and specs.
Contract Award
$18,010Jun 23, 2026Recreation Director Alison Thayer briefed the Select Board on summer program logistics and raised the need to purchase rather than rent a vehicle to improve reliability and provide towing capacity. Current reliance on rented vans and additional drivers from Western ME Transportation is straining her budget, prompting discussion of alternatives including purchasing a vehicle and exploring partnerships. Board members suggested options such as hiring Greg Roy’s All Points Transportation for 11-passenger vans with towing capability at 80 per hour and investigating a vehicle-sharing partnership with the local school district. The Select Board also discussed adding an extra 5000 to the recreation program budget in the June town meeting warrant to support these needs. This indicates an active search for cost-effective transportation and towing solutions for recreation programs, with scope still open on whether to buy, lease, or contract services.
Pre-RFP
$5,000May 26, 2026The town approved a $154,947.82 purchase of air packs for the fire department from Bergeron Protective Clothing, funded from undesignated funds as authorized at Town Meeting. The equipment vendor is selected and the acquisition is moving forward. Fire equipment and safety vendors can treat this as incumbent intelligence on SCBA gear and a signal that Jay is updating fire safety equipment, which may drive future needs for training, maintenance, fit testing, or complementary gear.
Contract Award
$154,947May 11, 2026The Strong Select Board approved holding a special town meeting to transfer $20,000 from surplus into the Tarvia account to complete paving of Birch Lane and Shady Lane with Pike Industries. Public Works Director Duayne Boyd noted that additional funds were needed and that culvert replacements are also required as part of the project. This indicates that Pike Industries is the chosen contractor for the paving work, with funding adjustments being finalized via the July 14, 2026 special town meeting. While the primary paving contract appears decided, there may be related needs for culvert materials, traffic control, and future road work, and the town’s use of Tarvia and Roads & Bridges funds signals continued small-road capital projects in the near term.
Contract Award
$20,000Jun 9, 2026The Town accepted an estimate at the $5,000 bid threshold from Flycatcher to conduct an environmental permitting assessment for a two-acre land purchase approved at Town Meeting. The Select Board waived competitive bidding due to limited contractor availability so due diligence can proceed quickly. While this assessment contract is set, the underlying land purchase and permitting will likely create follow-on needs for survey, design, and additional environmental work once the Town decides how to use the parcel.
Contract Award
$5,000Jun 8, 2026The Board approved a 10% increase and accepted Absolut Services for a three‑year plow contract for the Transfer Station, 2026 to 2029, at $8,250. This confirms Absolut as the plowing incumbent for that facility for the next three winters. Service and equipment vendors can pursue add‑on support now and plan for a future rebid or expansion of scope as the term nears completion.
