The Tilton board approved purchasing a generator and contracting ARC Electric to carry out installation work. During discussion members compared retailer prices and potential rebates; one trustee noted Menards offered an 11% return on the listed price and suggested ordering promptly to secure the price.
A trustee moved to purchase the generator from Menards at a quoted unit price and to hire ARC Electric for installation at its quoted labor cost. "So it's gonna be $72.59 plus as long as we can get it from Menards, 11% back," a board member said during the price comparison. The motion to order the unit and accept ARC Electric's installation quote passed on a voice vote recorded in the meeting packet.
