The Elkhart City Council read three proposed ordinances and, with no objections, forwarded each to second reading.
Proposed Ordinance 25‑O‑01, as read, is “an ordinance appropriating $425,000 from the riverboat gaming fund to other funds accounts and authorizing the controller to transfer the funds to the local road and bridge matching grant fund.” Council officers indicated there were no objections and the item will proceed to second reading.
Proposed Ordinance 25‑O‑02, as read, is “an ordinance appropriating $777,672.50 from the local road and bridge matching grant fund for the 2025 grant-funded contract paving project under the Community Crossings matching grant program.” The council forwarded this item to second reading with no objections.
Proposed Ordinance 25‑O‑03 was read by title; the read text included a numeric sequence that appears garbled in the record: “An ordinance appropriating 600 and or $600,001,717,045 dollars and 42¢ in matching funds for the Bristol Street widening project.” The clerk passed the item to second reading after noting no objections. The transcript’s numeric rendering for 25‑O‑03 is inconsistent; the council did not discuss the item in detail at this meeting.
No ordinances or resolutions were on second reading at this meeting, and no ordinance votes were taken; the items were advanced for further consideration on subsequent readings.
