The Seymour City Hall Board of Works meeting on August 13, 2026, primarily focused on approving various street closures for community events including Junkyard Barbecue, Twin Trinity United Methodist Church's Harvest Fest, and multiple Oktoberfest activities such as the parade, 5K run, festival, and carnival. The board approved these requests unanimously. Procurement discussions included the approval to purchase a new vinyl cutter for $6,500 to $6,900, with the lowest bid accepted, and the selection of Country Chevrolet for a Parks and Recreation vehicle purchase at $37,043 due to availability and added features. Additionally, a memorandum of understanding was approved for a $3,418.66 mural project along Highway 50. Updates on infrastructure projects such as Highway 50 phases and utility relocations were provided, with plans to bring a UV building project for water pollution control to bid in September. Sewer adjustments totaling $365.64 were approved, and miscellaneous approvals included extending a construction project deadline and pending approval of a new food truck vendor. The meeting also addressed ongoing construction and utility coordination near the hospital and other city areas.
