Major Recommendations of Road Probers in Vermont
The Vermont Highway Department faces several reforms from the 1963 legislative commission. Key points urge independent review appraisers for right of way, stricter procedure adherence, two appraisals for high value parcels, and independence from right of way. Also proposed are salary reforms for engineers, clearer career paths, training, and personnel analysis by the Administration Department. Purchasing would ban price fixing, favor Vermont suppliers when bids are equal, and standardize materials specs. Truck weights should align with neighboring states to protect bridges. Contractors should use courts for disputes and state non interference in labor issues.
