The Hammond Board of Public Works and Safety approved a $122,500 funding allocation for a grinder project at the Sportsplex, with the contract to Salier Plumbing. Staff (speaker 3) told the board the capital improvement board had already approved the allocation and the mayor signed it, and staff asked the Board to ratify the funding so the previously awarded contract aligns with available funds.

‘‘As the board remembers at a previous meeting we opened quotes… and the board has graciously approved to award that contract to Salyer in in advance of the funding allocation being approved. That funding allocation was presented to the capital improvement board on Monday, and was approved and has since been signed by the mayor,’’ the staff member said. Committee member (speaker 2) recommended approval and the Chair concurred.

The transcript records the funding allocation and administrative approval; no contested debate or alternative funding sources were raised during the discussion.
