Council votes to close $1,850 claim after contractor cannot prove work was done
Summary
Council moved to close an outstanding $1,850 contractual claim for which staff could not find evidence of work; motion to close was made, seconded and approved, with the option to reopen if proof is later provided.
During old business the council addressed an unresolved contractual payment and a separate $1,850 claim. Multiple staff members confirmed the contractor did not work the period in question and no supporting documentation was found.
Committee member (Speaker 4) moved to close the $1,850 claim unless the contractor produces proof of work within two weeks; the motion was seconded and council agreed to close the file pending submission of supporting evidence. Chair and others framed the action as standard fiscal prudence: staff will reopen and pay if the contractor later provides acceptable proof.
The council recorded the claim amount ($1,850) and directed staff to close the matter in the absence of evidence of performance.
