Roadside vegetation management contract award
A bidder's $5,000 mistake cost the town its low bid of roughly $375,000; the contract went to the next bidder at $700,344, nearly double. One resident called the process wasteful and said the bid should simply be corrected.
Farley Road width measurements and fire lane requirements
A resident measured Farley Road curb-to-curb and found sections as narrow as 34 feet — below the 36 feet needed for parked cars plus a fire lane — contradicting Public Works' stated 40-foot width. The information was directed to the April 22 hearing on the West Valley Muslim Association permit.
