Summary

Council appointed Carol as Sunman's Southeast Indiana Regional Planning Commission delegate, approved travel and training for wastewater staff, and authorized baseline membership fees for local partner organizations.

The Town of Sunman appointed Carol as its representative to the Southeast Indiana Regional Planning Commission (SIRPC). Council members described the rep’s role — attending several meetings per year and participating in budget and director oversight — and noted the commitment is generally four meetings annually; Carol was nominated, seconded and confirmed.

Council also approved training travel and expenses for wastewater staff to attend the Alliance training March 15–17, which was expected to provide about 14 hours of continuing education. The motion approved travel, lodging and registration as consistent with employee policies.

Finally, the council approved minimum annual membership fees to a set of partner organizations (Chamber of Commerce, Alliance, AIM, MCT, ADA-impact groups noted in the packet) at their baseline levels so town staff can continue to access training and services.

Clerk/Treasurer will record membership payments and training reimbursements in the town accounts; council did not record detailed roll-call tallies in the transcript for these routine approvals.
