Muncie Board approves $852,151 in claims; controller flags $107,850 Tooey Park roof cost
Summary
The Muncie Board of Works and Safety on May 21 approved $852,151 in claims, including a $107,850 payment for a new roof at Tooey Park; the board also reviewed an ETA fund payment to Greater Muncie Economic Development.
The Muncie Board of Works and Safety approved $852,151 in claims at its May 21 meeting, with Craig Wright, Muncie city controller, summarizing several line items including a $107,850 payment for a new roof at Tooey Park.
Wright said the claims were sent out the afternoon before and pointed the board to details on page 12 of the register, where the Tooey Park roof and routine health-care and utility claims appear. The payment for the roof was described as the result of a recent bid process.
During review, a board member asked for clarification on a $2,374 professional-services payment listed as using ETA funds for “Greater Muncie Economic Development.” Wright replied that the payment "was paid out the deck." The transcript does not identify any further detail about the vendor or the invoice description.
The board voted to approve the claims by voice vote; the meeting record shows the motion carried. The board also approved the May 14 minutes earlier in the session.
The board did not provide additional documentation in the meeting record about the vendor associated with the ETA funds payment or any contract tied to the Tooey Park roof; those details were not specified during the discussion.
