Glenda Seals of the Seymour District, State Highway Department spoke to the Council about the Bridge on Highway 144 at Highway 67. Several residents and business owners, expressed their concerns about the road being completely closed, the length of closing, and the safety. Those expressing concern were Bill Overholser owner of Children's Park, Jim Newcomer of Newcomer Lumber, and Bill Abbott Town Engineer. Glenda Seals explained the length of the Project had not been determined because they did not have final plans. The Project is scheduled for a November 1998 letting of bids. Highway 144 at the bridge would be four lanes, a dedicated right, a dedicated left, and a thru lane for Eastbound traffic and for Westbound traffic, one lane. She also talked of an Official Detour in which the State officially assigns Town Streets as the Detour and would come in ahead of time and cut out joints and would resurface prior to construction. With an Unofficial Detour, the State would assign all State Roads as the Detour. After completion of the Project, the State would reimburse the Town for repairs having to be made to the streets. Glenda told the Council if there was a November 1998 letting and work begins April 1, 1999, it is estimated the project will take one season to complete. A 1996 ruling states the State of Indiana has to have a signed agreement with tile Town for tile Project.

A discussion was held concerning the possibility of rewording the Sewer Availability Ordinance for a PUD Commercial. Some of the fees are supposed to be paid at the time of the plat recording, in the case of Commercial, most times it is not known what businesses will go in. If too low of a fee is set and a different business using more sewer goes in the Town loses out on some of the fees. Plainfield experienced this problem and changed their PUD Commercial Ordinance.
