Beyond COVID-19: IBJ interview with Michael Huber, Indy Chamber
Our friends at the Indianapolis Business Journal recently interviewed Michael Huber, President & CEO of the Indy Chamber , highlighting the Indy Chamber's Rapid Response Hub and the valuable resources they are providing to Indy and surrounding counties.
Financial Statement from
Clerk-Treasurer Rebecca J Tumey
The City of Martinsville is spot-on regarding the 2020 Budget. Appropriations are holding at 79% unexpended. Typically, I encourage the departments to hold spending to about 8% per month. So, the City is a bit ahead. The City has no plans to request an early distribution of the spring settlement.

I have been in contact with Morgan County Auditor Dan Bastin. Bastin tells me he expects to release the spring settlement on time. I did ask if he thought there would be a significant shortage, to which he replied “no.” The City has no plans of applying for a loan with the Indiana Bond Bank.

Further, Mayor Costin, for the first time ever, has placed the City utility departments under a budget. Mayor Costin and his administration are diligently planning for upcoming maintenance, construction and improvements of the City utility infrastructure.

Keep up to date with the City’s web site and Facebook page .
