Council reviews claims; $6,800 paid to Black Art Paving split between sewer and water
Summary
During claims review a council member asked about a $6,800 invoice to Black Art Paving; staff confirmed the amount was split between water and sewer accounts for multiple patching jobs and the claims were approved by the council.
A council member questioned a claims entry showing a $6,800 payment to contractor Black Art Paving for patching work and asked whether the charge was split between the sewer and water funds.
Staff answered that the cost is split and that much of Black Art's work appears on water and sewer accounts because it covers water and sewer patches, new taps and sinkhole or manhole repairs. After the clarification, the council moved and seconded approval of the claims and payroll report and approved it by voice vote.
The transcript shows the inquiry focused on transparency of fund allocation rather than the contractor selection itself; no further follow-up motion was made other than approval of the claims.
