Summary
At its Dec. 13 meeting the Village of Michiana elected Tim McCarthy council president and Brian Cassidy president pro tem, approved the treasurer report and a $112,935.49 check register, authorized an employee day off Dec. 22, and approved a July 25, 2025 house walk fundraiser.
During roll call the council confirmed attendance and then adopted officer nominations: Mike Botelho nominated Tim McCarthy for Council President (seconded by Brian Cassidy); the council approved the nomination 5–0. Tim McCarthy then nominated Brian Cassidy as President Pro Tem (seconded by Mike Mumper); that motion also passed unanimously.
