Dunstable Select Board Approves $503K Route 113 Redesign Contract

DUNSTABLE — May 6, 2026 — Dunstable Select Board approves $502,900 Route 113 redesign contract and renews Trinity Ambulance deal. The board voted 4-1 to award the complete streets engineering contract to Greenman-Petersen Incorporated after Town Administrator Jason Sulava said 14 firms competed for the work funded by a $475,000 Housing Works grant plus $28,000 in free cash appropriated at a prior special town meeting, landing $100 under budget. The board unanimously renewed a one-year ambulance agreement with Trinity Ambulance, though members noted ongoing discussions about response-time incentives were effectively a dead end — "they're not going to do it for a Dunkin' gift card," one member quipped — and said regional partnership talks would continue. A dangerous dog hearing involving a 53-pound dog named Maple was continued two weeks after the owners presented MSPCA surrender paperwork, with the board declining to impose a dangerous-dog designation and noting "safety is the first thing that we all have to consider," in the words of Police Chief Lord. The board also approved a $39,000 IT contract with Umbral Technologies and voted to support 19 of the town meeting warrant articles ahead of the annual town meeting.
