Muncie board approves $1.2 million in claims, chair flags $798 GoDaddy charge for pool POS
Summary
The Muncie Board of Public Works and Safety approved $1,207,804.72 in claims on July 15; the chair highlighted a $798 GoDaddy charge listed to 'TUI Pool' that staff said was for a point-of-sale system.
The Muncie Board of Public Works and Safety on July 15 approved the register of claims totaling $1,207,804.72.
Craig Wright, city controller, introduced the register and said, “Sent out the claims yesterday afternoon…our usual utilities and health care was a majority of it,” and noted recent paving work on Dayton Avenue, Proud Street and 11th Street. The chair flagged a separate line item: “there's a claim for $798 to GoDaddy,” which staff member Amber Green explained was for a point-of-sale system at TUI Pool.
A board member moved to approve the claims and the chair seconded; the board voted in favor and the chair announced the motion carried. The motion approved payment of the listed claims as presented; no dissenting votes were recorded in the transcript.
Why it matters: the register funds routine operations (utilities and health care) and capital maintenance (pavement work) across city departments. The chair’s request to call out the GoDaddy line provides a public record of the vendor and purpose.
What’s next: The city will proceed with disbursements according to the approved register.
