Vigo County commissioners approve May minutes, payroll and claims and authorize HR credit card

Vigo County commissioners approved the May 6, 2025 minutes, authorized payroll and claim dockets covering May 2–9, 2025, and approved issuance of a county credit card for Human Resources coordinator Jordan Gackle during a short meeting.

The approvals came without dissent. Auditor Hutchings asked the commissioners to approve the single set of minutes; a commissioner moved approval and a second was recorded, and the board voted “Aye.” Auditor Hutchings then presented a payroll docket dated May 2–9, 2025 and asked for approval. The transcript records the payroll amount unclearly; the board approved the payroll docket after a motion and second. The commissioners also approved a claim docket for May 2–9, 2025 in the amount shown in the meeting record as $1,148,072.83.

Auditor Hutchings introduced the request to issue a county credit card for Jordan Gackle, identified in the meeting as “our HR coordinator.” Hutchings said Gackle “goes to conferences, things like that.” A commissioner moved to approve the card; the motion was seconded and approved by the assembled commissioners.

All four formal items—minutes, payroll docket, claim docket and the credit card authorization—were handled as routine fiscal and administrative business and passed by voice vote. No amendments or conditions were recorded in the meeting minutes presented in the transcript.

The meeting recessed after the actions. The commissioners noted a separate council meeting scheduled for 5 p.m. that evening.
