PAS announces winners of juried show Robertson want to pur- chase the land and use it as a base for a truck dis- patch facility. The council was told the trucks will depart in the morning empty and return in the afternoon empty, as well. Residents had initial concerns, given at pre- vious plan commission meetings, about truck traffic on County Road 300 South. The Robertsons gave assurance that trucks will enter and exit off Atlantic Road and head north toward State Road 32 and would not be using County Road 300 South. The rezoning aes- thetic requirements, for landscaping permits, guarantee that either trees or fences will be added as barriers to sepa- rate the adjacent lots.

Waiting for approval The town council voted to accept a bid, contingent on approval from Indiana Depart- ment of Transportation, of $175,000 from Paving to resurface and repair County Road 650 South. INDOT had told the town it would reimburse cost for repairs. The road was dam- aged because it was used as a detour for another INDOT project. At the time, INDOT did not know the area was annexed by Lapel; it thought the road was owned by Madison County, so the county, instead of the town, was notified about the work. Council members agreed to make the ac- ceptance contingent on the response of INDOT, since it now knows the cost of the project.

have to do (the work), and the state is going to pay us Wainscott said. trying to figure out how much of that $175,000 (INDOT will Flipping the switch The town council also voted unanimously to purchase an automatic transfer switch for a gen- erator at its water plant. Mike Daniels, acting supervisor of the utility department, said he would get a quote for the council and bring it to the next meeting, scheduled for today, Thursday, Dec. 19. It came to attention during the last week of November that, during a power outage, the utility department was unable to get to its trucks be- cause staff open the garage door.

An automatic transfer switch immediately senses a power problem and signals the generator to start and saves a sig- nificant amount of time in restoring power rather than having someone manually on the grounds to turn on a generator. The town is looking for a full-time utilities superintendent, who would manage gas, water, sewer and street employees. Applications can be picked up at Lapel Town Hall and should be turned in by Dec. 20. Ordinance approved The council voted 3-0 to change South County Road 900 West to Cascadden Boulevard, named after former resi- dent Olivia Cascadden, who passed away in 2015.

Cascadden bestowed a trust that awards funds annually, alternating between the town and the school system. The road is located near Lapel High School.
