The Evansville Common Council on May 12 accepted city payments totaling $2,414,435.89 and received updates on the city audit and capital planning.
Alderperson Bill Lathrop moved to accept the April 2026 payments; Alderperson Ben Corridon seconded and the motion passed by roll call 8-0. Lathrop told the council that Johnson Block expects the year’s audit to be completed by June and that the finance group aims to transition from quarterly treasurer reports to a standard set of financial statements and a clearer Capital Improvement Plan.
The council received the First Quarter Treasurer’s Report with no comments. Clerk Leah Hurtley and City Administrator Jason Sergeant were present for the discussion; no additional votes or amendments were requested.
The council later approved a separate resolution designating authorized signers for city bank accounts (Resolution #2026-21). That resolution passed 7-0-1, with Lathrop recorded as abstaining after a lengthy discussion led by Alderperson Ben Corridon about signer authority and internal controls.
