North Webster Hears Report About Park Board's 5-Year Plan

NORTH WEBSTER - The town council began its new year Wednesday by electing Kay Andrews president and setting the meeting date for the second Wednesday of the month at 7 p.m. The board heard from Tim Kelty of R.P.Murphy and Associates regarding the park board's five-year plan, a project required by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources for grant application purposes. Kelty said a new idea in the state is a requirement for developers to set aside a portion of a subdivision for recreational purposes.The idea would involve a change in zoning ordinances. He said the park board's rough draft includes the set-aside requirement, a plan for a fishing pier to extend from the observation deck into the lake; the purchase of its own sound system for musical programs; and the possibilities of taking over surplus and/or abandoned government property, such as the soon-to-be abandoned North Webster Elementary School building and grounds.
