Logansport approves $1.1 million in claims, authorizes TIF and finance contracts
Summary
The board approved $1,105,610.47 in claims, including a $310,271.66 grant claim and payroll items, and approved professional services agreements with Baker Tilly and Iron Horse Broadcasting plus temporary finance assistance, all by voice vote.
The Logansport Board of Public Works and Safety approved $1,105,610.47 in claims at its Jan. 7 meeting, including a grant claim of $310,271.66, payroll of $297,105.74, pension payments, and a TIF Industrial Park claim for $56,433.13. "Next is the approval of claims for $1,105,610.47," Chris Martin said when presenting the item; the motion to approve was carried by voice vote with board members recorded as 'Yes.'
The board also approved a professional services agreement with Baker Tilly for ongoing TIF assistance. Staff described the contract as an annual engagement to assist with TIF funding, training for the RDC and the annual report. In addition, the board approved a separate engagement to bring Dwayne into the Clerk-Treasurer's office to assist with the annual finance report during an office transition; staff said the four-year arrangement would ensure the report is completed without outsourcing to a higher-cost vendor. The board approved an Iron Horse Broadcasting agreement for advertising tied to the Light Up Logan's Court parade; the item was presented as budgeted and completed as planned.
All items were approved on voice votes with no recorded opposition. The board did not provide detailed budgetary breakdowns for the individual items beyond the line-item amounts presented on the meeting record.
