1053 There has also been a vacancy on the Redevelopment Commission for over a year and President Watkins stated that with Ivy Tech and other opportunities, the position should be filled. He is recommending a nomination of someone from the Town Council due to the large amounts of money committed by the Redevelopment Commission. He feels that by having elected officials serve on the Redevelopment Commission, it gives the tax payers more access to the Redevelopment Commission than they would otherwise have. Councilman Langley made a motion to nominate Councilman Mathis to serve on the Redevelopment Commission until the end of the year. Motion was second by Councilman Cook. Motion carried 4-0-1, with Councilwoman Perry abstaining from voting. The next item was a change order and pay request from Reed & Son for the Merriman - Road project. Ross Holloway of Holloway Engineering presented the change order to the Council. He stated that with the exception of one item, this was basically a balancing change order. They did add one item in the amount of$670.00 for a pole that Duke set that was not in the original location. The other items were a result of the county lowering the ditches and having to maintain coverage over utilities. The overall effect was a change order in the amount of$5,284.02.
