RFP & RFB Process:
Request for Proposals (customized) & Request for Bids (standardized products or services that are not customized) will be posted here. Any addendums will be posted on this webpage and it is the responsibility of bidders to obtain any addenda here. Please complete/provide a Bid Sheet if available. The Selectboard will select the vendor at a Selectboard Meeting following the bid due date for that project. The Selectboard usually meets on the first and third Monday of every month with few exceptions due to summer and holidays. In addition to this webpage, normal town postings and newspaper, bids are also located here: https://www.vermontbusinessregistry.com . VTrans requires at least three weeks. FEMA requires “adequate” time. Generally, three weeks is seen as a minimum to generate open competition.
East Montpelier’s New RFPs:
1.Town Hill Rd. White Lines: (Proposals are due at 11:00 a.m. Monday, November 17, 2025.)
We plan to do this project in the late spring 2026/ summer of 2026. We are not doing this project right away. We are doing one fog line at a time to space it out for the town’s budget, so only paint one side white 4″, a 2.26 miles long stretch, one year and then do the other fog line the next year. This is the first time we’ve went out to bid for line striping.
Our Road Foreman is at highway@eastmontpeliervt.org for any specific questions. Please submit bids to manager@eastmontpeliervt.org
