The City's regular electrician was paid once from the fund

The City's vendor history for M.P. Electrical Contractors, all funds from 01/01/2018 to 09/02/2026, totals 99,780.00. From 2018 on the City paid the vendor for electrical labor, repairs, service hookups and installations from its current fund electrical line, its building maintenance line, capital ordinance accounts and a storm recovery trust. The one charge to the settlement account G-02-40-698-296 is 32,985.00 for ELECTRIC SUPPLY SETUP SIGN slash PSC, paid 05/05/2025. In 2026 the vendor is paid again from the current fund and a capital account. The contract file shows the vendor held the City's on call electrical arrangement from quotes taken 11/17/2022, before any settlement money was spent. Reading the sign wiring as work the City would otherwise have paid from its own accounts is an inference from that history.
