The Michigan City Port Authority received its monthly finance report and moved to approve payment of bills totaling $30,007.56.
Mister Cyrus presented itemized charges including purchases from All Phase Electric, Midwest Security, a NIPSCO utility bill and contracted services (Republic Services and Traditions), and proposed payment of the total for the board's approval. He moved to approve the bills as presented.
Separately, a motion to contribute $5,000 to the city's special events for 2026 was made and seconded; the board discussed that the contribution supports multiple events (July 4, Easter, Santa Claus activities and others). A voice 'Aye' was recorded during the vote; the transcript does not record individual yes/no votes or a complete tally.
The board also discussed noting refunds issued to dock customers and continuing regular financial oversight. The transcript does not capture a formal roll-call vote for the bills; staff should confirm the official minutes for the complete vote record.
