Monona committee accepts May accounts payable, notes pool, vehicle and legal costs
Summary
The committee accepted general fund accounts payable checks for May 1–May 29, 2025, including pool startup and chemical purchases, a new police vehicle payment, legal fees related to a Clint Kinzinger lawsuit, a tourism grant disbursement, and recurring street-lighting charges from the City of Madison.
The City of Monona Finance and Personnel Committee accepted the general fund accounts payable checks covering May 1–May 29, 2025.
Finance staff summarized the month’s expenditures and highlighted several items: payments to vendors for pool chemicals and a pump tied to a capital account, a new police Chevrolet Blazer, legal fees largely related to the Clint Kinzinger lawsuit, and a tourism grant of about $30,000. Staff also noted recurring credit-card activity processed through Lakeridge Bank and Amazon Capital Services and explained that the city administers some grants on behalf of neighboring jurisdictions and retains an administrative fee for that work.
A committee member asked why the city pays street-lighting charges to the City of Madison; staff explained Madison controls traffic signals and lights at certain intersections and the payments are a recurring monthly charge. Staff also reminded the committee that auditors review accounts payable items and that selected months are pulled for closer inspection during the audit.
Committee members voted to accept the bills as presented. No changes to payments were recorded in the meeting; staff said more detailed line-item questions could be addressed outside the meeting if needed.
