Bloomington board approves $168,811.20 in payables; large sewer bill tied to tank cleaning
Summary
The Village of Bloomington board approved April and May payables totaling $168,811.20, noting unusually large sewer expenses after tank cleaning and a missed payment to a contractor. Officials authorized the payments and discussed utility cost drivers.
The Village of Bloomington board on June 2 approved accounts payable for April and May, with President Robert McLimans noting combined payouts of $92,741.00 for April and $76,070.20 for May.
McLimans told the board that the Water Utility bills for the two months totaled $39,707.20 and the Sewer Utility bills totaled $36,231.73. He said the sewer bills were inflated in part because of the expense of tank cleaning and a large payment to Town & Country that covered a missed April payment. The motions to approve the minutes and the accounts payable were made and seconded and carried unanimously.
The approvals clear routine monthly vendor payments and allow planned maintenance and contractor settlements to proceed. Board members did not take additional action at the meeting to change rates or to propose new revenue measures to offset the higher sewer expenditures.
