The Town of Brownsburg council approved consent items including meeting minutes and claim dockets, awarded a bid to relocate a water main for a county bridge project, adopted a voluntary annexation on third reading and advanced two ordinances on first reading.
The Brownsburg Town Council on May 22 approved routine consent items, awarded a construction bid and adopted a voluntary annexation, while advancing two separate ordinances on first reading.
On routine business the council approved the May 8, 2025 regular meeting minutes and accepted the civil and fire territory claim dockets covering May 8–May 22, 2025. The claims and payroll amounts were read into the record as "$2,626,196 and $81." The council voiced approval with no recorded opposition.
The council approved a staff-recommended bid award for the County Road 700 water main relocation project. Aaron (staff member) reported the engineer's estimate at about $291,000 and said staff recommended awarding the project to Likens Contracting for $290,733. A motion to approve the bid award carried with voice votes and no opposition recorded.
On ordinances, the council adopted on third reading a voluntary annexation for property identified as 3855 North State Road 267 (ordinance cited in the meeting as 20-25-06). Jenna Ortman (Development Services) told the council there were no updates since the public hearing and that the annexation remains a utility-connection voluntary annexation. The council voted in favor on final adoption.
Two code changes advanced on first reading: an ordinance to prohibit the use, parking and obstruction of motor vehicles on public trails (identified in the meeting as ordinance 20-25-07) and an amendment to the noise ordinance (identified in the meeting as ordinance 20-25-08) that would remove the clause referencing the hours “particularly between the hours of 11PM and 7AM.” Amber (Park Authority/Town staff) presented the trail-vehicles ordinance and Scott (staff member) presented the noise ordinance amendment; both were approved for proposed first reading with no recorded opposition.
