For one, the number of lots was reduced from 64 to 43. Secondly, the resi- dences will either be manufactured homes, stick-built homes or a combination of both, depending on available.
Also, a park included in the original plans has been taken out. Those details were shared by developer Joe Hauersperger during a recent Seymour Plan Commission meeting at city hall. The board approved his primary CROTHERSVILLE A public hearing on the Crothersville Town Council proposing to annex five areas into the town is set for today. It will start at 6 p.m. at the town hall, 111 E.
Howard Crothersville. The 39 property owners affected were sent a copy of the studies and a notice of the public hearing by certified mail. During that hearing, people can give their opinions on the proposal and ask questions. At least three of the five council members will attend along with town attorney Matt Lorenzo, Brad Bender with FPBH Inc. and Clerk-Treasurer Danieta Foster.
After that, the council will have to take final action on the second reading of the ordinances within 30 to 60 days. Annexation is a pro- cess governed by state statute with a number of requirements, including contiguity of existing town boundaries and a provision of capital and noncapital services, Bender said. Capital services include water, sanitary sewer and fire protection, while noncapital services include police protec- tion and trash pickup. Bender said if the town approves the annexation ordinances for each of the five areas, the town will have three years to provide capital services and one year to provide noncapital services. Bender said annexa- tion helps a community set up some orderly growth for development and opportunities and helps set a tax base, and residents also could vote in the town elections and even run for town council or clerk-treasurer.
In October 2021, six public outreach meetings were conducted. a state-required process to inform affected property owners about the annexa- tion proposal.
