Evansville City board approves minutes, extends TrueVest loan and authorizes EDA plan submission
Summary
At the Evansville City board meeting members approved the Feb. 28 minutes, granted a 12-month interest-only extension to a TrueVest loan with a balloon payment due June 1, 2026, and authorized staff to submit the EDA plan for the revolving loan fund due in July.
The Evansville City board voted to approve the minutes from its Feb. 28 meeting, approved a 12-month, interest-only extension for a TrueVest loan with a balloon payment due June 1, 2026, and directed staff to submit the city’s Economic Development Administration (EDA) plan for the revolving loan fund, which is due in July.
Board members opened the meeting by approving the previous meeting’s minutes after a motion and second and a voice vote. The board then heard an update from Lisa, a staff member, about TrueVest’s request for revised loan terms. Lisa said TrueVest’s property “sustained damage” and the borrower is working with its insurer to repair the units before sale; the borrower had a balloon payment originally due June 1, 2025, and requested a 12‑month interest‑only extension to allow repairs and sale to repay the loan. After a motion to extend the loan for 12 months interest only with a balloon payment on June 1, 2026, the board voted in favor and no opposition was recorded on the transcript.
Later in the meeting the board reviewed the EDA plan update, which board members noted is due in July and which all members had received. A member moved to authorize Lisa to submit the EDA plan to the EDA for the city’s revolving loan fund; a second was recorded and the motion passed by voice vote with no opposition noted.
No ordinances, resolutions or other formal legislative measures beyond these motions were introduced or debated in detail during the recorded portion of the meeting.
