The South Bend City Council took several formal actions at its Jan. 26 meeting, including adoption of Ordinance #1613, approval of routine vendor payments totaling $72,319.09, and authorization of a four-way stop at Broadway and Monroe Streets.

Ordinance #1613, described as revised appropriations and expenditures for calendar year 2025, was moved by Councilor Manlow and adopted by a unanimous roll-call vote (Ayes-5, Noes-0). The council approved vendor checks #50177 through #50211 for $72,319.09, including EFT payments.
