The Muncie Sanitary District Board approved a register of claims totaling $404,142,595.55 during its May 28 meeting, and District Administrator Rick Conrad provided routine operations updates including planned sewer-line work and community outreach events.
The board voted to approve the May 14, 2025 board minutes and then approved the register of claims as presented; the record shows all commissioners present voted in favor. No commissioner raised questions about the claims during the meeting.
Operational updates: Conrad said the district will replace sewer lines on Amherst between Brentwood and Riley and on "20 Seventh between Meeker and Opechee," and warned drivers to expect lane restrictions or closures over the next few days. He thanked community volunteers for May neighborhood cleanups and said the district will accept applications for neighborhood cleanups in July and August, noting that Jason Donati from Sanitation will seek interested applicants and that application information will be posted to the district's Facebook page.
Community event: Conrad said the district will participate in the city's Tetra Truck event on June 20 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. across from City Hall and invited families to attend.
Why it matters: the register of claims represents the district's near-term expenditures; the operations updates describe localized construction activity that may affect traffic and neighborhood services.
Next steps: staff will post neighborhood cleanup application details online and begin the listed sewer repairs; the meeting record does not specify contract awards or vendor names for the claimed expenditures or precise schedules for each repair location.
