Summary
The Port Authority approved payment of $149,001.78 in bills (including a noted $5,521.59 tax payment and prior CD purchases), approved a $9,976.60 reimbursement to the Michigan City Controller, and removed a plaques item from old business for later discussion.
The Michigan City Port Authority approved payment of bills and several routine items during its July 6 meeting.
The finance committee reported a total of $149,001.78 in bills for the period, noting line items that included fuel‑for‑resale, stormwater work, landscaping, and a larger NIPSCO charge; committee members also noted $5,521.59 owed to the Indiana Department of Revenue and that the board previously approved purchase of certificates of deposit totaling $800,000. A board member moved to pay the bills as presented and the motion was seconded; members voted in favor by voice vote.
Separately, the board approved reimbursement of $9,976.60 to the Michigan City Controller for an employer contribution obligation after a motion and second. The transcript records the motions, seconds and voice approvals but does not include a roll-call tally for individual members.
Board members also discussed decorative plaques and whether to refurbish or replace them. A motion was made and seconded to remove the plaques item from old business pending development of replacement options; the motion passed by voice vote.
These routine approvals were recorded in the meeting minutes; the board did not, in the meeting transcript, allocate new budget lines or take up emergency appropriations.
