RDC authorizes up to $10,283.24 to pay Logansport Utilities for splash‑pad work
Summary
The Logansport Redevelopment Commission approved spending not to exceed $10,283.24 from RDC funds to pay outstanding Logansport Utilities invoices related to the Iron Marsh Park Plaza splash pad; members questioned invoice clarity and directed staff to seek reimbursements where appropriate.
The Logansport Redevelopment Commission approved a motion authorizing payment of Logansport Utilities invoices for splash‑pad work at Iron Marsh Park Plaza, approving an amount not to exceed $10,283.24.
A staff presenter told commissioners the invoices were submitted to the parks department and the PILOT committee at different times and that the RDC did not initially account for them in the urban park funding. "So we're looking at $11,000, TIP funds to be paid out to Logansport Utilities," the presenter said, later proposing the formal authorization capped at $10,283.24.
The commission recorded a funding breakdown to cover the amount from RDC accounts: up to $3,990.18 from the consolidated fund, up to $1,879.50 from the downtown TIF fund, and up to $4,413.56 from the industrial park fund. Commissioners asked detailed questions about the contractor invoice and its units of measure; one member called the invoice presentation "a little weird" because some equipment and vehicle charges lacked units.
Members also discussed whether previously invoiced discounts or reimbursements (for example, a pit installation discount) had been applied; staff said the parks department was investigating and that any reimbursements would return to the RDC. The motion to approve payment to Logansport Utilities passed by voice vote; staff said they would obtain corrected invoices and follow up on any refunds.
