The Peru Board of Public Works recorded several motions and voice votes at its July 21 meeting. Key decisions included: approving the June 16 minutes; approving payment of claims (listed $946,418.47) and payroll ($274,878.41); awarding three demolition contracts ($2,650; $2,750; $14,000); approving relocation of truck‑route signage off Madison Avenue; and approving Nickel Plate Trail signage to be mounted on existing city signposts.
Most items were adopted by voice vote with no recorded dissents. Several follow‑up implementation tasks were noted: traffic staff to remove/relocate signs and request GPS routing updates; public works staff to notify demolition contractors; and traffic staff to coordinate trail sign installation and confirm whether any requested posts are county‑owned.
