Council Tables Rezoning Request for PY Homes Development Amid Resident Concerns
The Town Council considered Ordinance 2026-28 (PC26-005) for a zoning map amendment requested by PY Homes of Indiana to rezone a parcel north of County Road East 500 South from AG General Agriculture to R3 medium density single family and two-family residential. Residents expressed concerns about consistency with the Comprehensive Plan, traffic, and the density designation. The petitioner argued the R3 designation with density commitments was appropriate. After public comment and council discussion, the council voted to table the ordinance until their next meeting to allow for further resident feedback and discussion.

The Town Council held the second reading and adopted Ordinance 2026-30, which vacates a portion of a public rightway running east-west between South Buck Street and South Bower Street.

An easement was retained on the ground due to overhead utilities.

However, Councilman Patterson requested to table the final vote until the next meeting to allow for further resident feedback and discussion, which was approved by the council.
Council Approves $498K Contract for Main Street Park Expansion Design and Public Engagement
The Town Council is considering a professional services agreement with Rundle Ernstberger Associates, Inc. for $498,322 for the Main Street Park expansion. This contract covers public engagement, concept selection, and the complete design of a selected concept. Two initial options were presented: one utilizing the full 14 acres for amenities like an amphitheater and trails, and another preserving northern space for a future municipal building. Public engagement will inform the final design. Concerns were raised by residents and council members regarding the potential use of the land for future municipal buildings, the definition of 'low density,' the cost of the proposed park, and the process of public engagement.
