The City Council of Indianapolis convened on September 24, 2025, for a Board of Public Works meeting, where several key agenda items were discussed and approved.

The meeting commenced with a motion to approve an amendment to a professional services agreement with 18 16 Public Affairs Group, LLC. This amendment extends the agreement for government affairs services for an additional year, through August 31, 2026, at a cost of $72,000. The board highlighted the importance of this extension in light of recent changes in the road funding formula, which necessitated continued support from the firm. The motion was unanimously approved after a brief discussion regarding the bidding process for such services and the board's satisfaction with the current contractor.

Following this, the board addressed an amendment to a professional services agreement with HNTB Corporation for on-call stormwater design and inspection services. This amendment increases the contract amount by $100,000, bringing the total not-to-exceed amount to $700,000, and extends the agreement's expiration date to December 31, 2026. The additional funding is intended to cover extra inspection work related to the 2022 thoroughfare drainage improvement program. The board approved this amendment without any questions.

The final item on the agenda involved the final acceptance of a small structure replacement project on East Brunswick Avenue, contracted to E and B Paving, Inc., for a total of $150,157.88. The board approved the final acceptance, concluding the meeting.

No further business was discussed, and the meeting adjourned after a motion was made and seconded. Overall, the meeting focused on extending critical contracts and ensuring the completion of infrastructure projects, reflecting the board's ongoing commitment to maintaining and improving the city's public works.
