REPORT OF PURCHASING COMMITTEE FOR SUPPLIES, MATERIAL AND EQUIPMENT FOR THE HIGHWAY DEPARTMENT 1941
The Purchasing Committee publicly opened bids for highway supplies, material and equipment on April 23, 1941, at 8:00 P.M., at the Committee Room of the Appropriation Committee in the Weymouth Town Hall.
After going over the bids submitted, the Committee felt that they should have more bids on the Pick-up Truck and Coupe. They also felt that they should have a gasoline bid giving a lower net cost and a price ceiling. Bids for the above were therefore advertised a second time, were received. and publicily opened on April 30, 1941. This time bids in satisfactory numbers were received on the Pick-up Truck and Coupe. A lower bid on gasoline by the amount of cash discount allowed but with no ceiling was also sub- mitted. It was estimated this cash discount on gasoline would save the Town between $40.00 and $50.00 for the year, however, and it had therefore been worth while to ask for a second bid on this item.

On Tuesday, May 27, 1941, Mr. Emerson Dizer, Town Accountant, in- formed Mr. Thomas Kelly that no more bills for the Highway Department would be paid until the Court decision was received on a Taxpayers' Bili in Equity asking for an injunction against the Town. At 4 P.M., Tuesday. May 27, 1941, Judge Nash, Town Counsel, asked that the Purchasing Com- mittee deliver no more contracts until after a decision had been given by the Court on the aforesaid Bill in Equity against the Town. No more con- tracts, therefore, were sent out by the Committee and those who had received awards were notified by Mr. Kelly of said Bill of Equity.
