Board of Public Works and Safety Meeting: 8/25/2026

The City of Fishers Board of Public Works and Safety held a meeting on August 25, 2026, where several procurement and contract-related items were discussed and approved. Key procurement actions included approval of a $345,000 change order for intersection improvements at 116th Street and Allisonville Road, which covers repairs to business approaches as part of resurfacing and traffic signal updates. The board also approved the surplus designation of city vehicles deemed worthless due to mechanical issues, allowing for salvage rather than trade-in. Additionally, the board authorized a special purchase contract for upfitting two Class 8 chassis trucks with dump beds and snow removal equipment, with one truck budgeted for 2026 and the other preordered for 2027 due to anticipated emission law changes affecting production timelines. Other agenda items included approval of a riverfront district designation permit for Unplugged Soy Candles to facilitate their liquor license application, though this did not involve budgetary decisions.
