Hannibal board approves Ecode360 purchase, allocates ARPA funds for skate ramp and OKs $98,849.12 in claims
Hannibal — The Town of Hannibal Board on June 10 approved a purchase agreement with General Code to adopt the Ecode360 codification platform and passed budget changes allocating ARPA funds to work on the town’s skate park ramp, the board recorded.

Todd Metcalfe of General Code presented Ecode360, describing the codification and digital hosting service and saying the local code update process could take up to two years with payment-over-time options. After the presentation Supervisor Kim Malone asked for a motion; Councilwoman Emma Gage moved to allow Malone to sign the General Code Purchase Agreement for Ecode360 for $13,995 and Councilwoman Tara Clark seconded. Resolution 28-2026 passed by a recorded vote of three ayes (Clark, Gage, Malone); two members were absent.

The board also approved June 2026 budget modifications to receive and expend ARPA funds for the skate-park ramp. The modifications increase revenue code A-4089 by $3,825 and expense A-7140.2 by $3,825 to cover labor (listed as WD Malone) and separately increase A-4089 and A-7140.2 by $2,272.72 to cover supplies purchased from Raby's Ace Hardware. Councilwoman Tara Clark moved to approve the budget modification; Councilwoman Emma Gage seconded and Resolution 29-2026 passed 3–0.

In routine business the board accepted written departmental reports and approved the May 13 meeting minutes and the May 2026 financial report after motions from Councilwoman Tara Clark with seconds from Councilwoman Emma Gage; those motions passed by recorded 3–0 votes. The board also voted to cancel the June 24 workshop (Resolution 30-2026, 3–0).

Councilwoman Tara Clark moved and Councilwoman Emma Gage seconded approval of Abstract #6 of 2026 for payment of town claims. The board approved payment across multiple funds with a grand total of $98,849.12. Fund-level totals listed in the meeting record include General A Fund $30,163.70; DA Highway $17,442.98; DB Highway $27,327.60; Water District SW-2 $9,971.79; Water District SW-3 $11,639.20; Water District SW-4 $1,327.27; Trust & Agency $232.00; and smaller or zero balances in other funds.
