# Board of Works October 14, 2026

The City of Muncie Board of Public Works and Safety met on October 14, 2026. The board approved the register of claims totaling $402,779.58. Discussed expenditures included $55,477 to Kelly Chevrolet for a Street Department Tahoe, $15,875 to Summers of Anderson for a commercial water heater and plumbing work, $41,389.76 for streetlight and traffic-signal electricity, and payments to LEAP Managed IT for IT services and printer usage. Members also asked about a $10,000 labor-negotiation legal-services expense and a $10,000 payment to Muncie Home Builders; no procurement decision on those items was made. The controller explained that budget transfers between different budget series require City Council approval, and said the city was reviewing budget imbalances and considering consolidating departmental utility line items in a future budget.

The board also approved a street-closure application for Cats, Crystals, and Curiosities’ November 7 anniversary event and vendor market. No contract award, bid approval, or new purchasing action was identified beyond approval of the claims register.
