In a recent government meeting, key updates were shared regarding upcoming audits and community engagements. The meeting highlighted the scheduling of an upcoming Administrative Review Board (ARB) meeting, set for this week, alongside a significant CSO audit scheduled for August 14. Officials are currently preparing for the audit, which involves a comprehensive twelve-page pre-audit form focusing on stormwater management.

One notable achievement discussed was the successful completion of cyanide testing over the past year and a half. Officials announced that they have submitted six months of data to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM), resulting in the potential removal of cyanide limits from their operations. This change will allow for a return to quarterly testing without limits, marking a significant victory for the team involved in the testing process.

Additionally, the meeting addressed upcoming community events, including a mayor's roundtable scheduled for this Friday at Eagle Glen, which is expected to attract around 70 to 80 attendees, including mayors from across northern Indiana. The mayor expressed gratitude for the efforts of staff in organizing the event.

As the meeting concluded, officials noted ongoing budget discussions and the importance of community engagement, with plans for a ride-along with local police officers to foster better relations between the city administration and law enforcement. The meeting was attended by a limited audience, underscoring a focus on internal updates and preparations for future initiatives.
