Income surveys complete for Napoleon
Cathy May - Contributing Writer

With the help of the Southeastern Indiana Regional Planning Commission, the Town of Napoleon now has enough income surveys to submit to the state for a planning grant for a water drainage study for the town. SIRPC will re-submit the grant to the state. The grant was submitted once, but when the new administration came in, they changed some wording in the income surveys and asked they be done over.

Brian Samples, who is building the area for the garbage dumpsters, was in attendance at the Napoleon Town Board meeting. Samples said the concrete is poured for the area. The board looked at gate options.

McCreary Block LLC out of Rushville, quoted $1,459 for the flow meter needed for the lagoon. Rod Eaton will install the meter for $1,000.
Four street signs have been ordered to match the current signs. There are two for Locker Street, one for Main Street and one for Wilson Street. Pea gravel has been placed on the playground area.

The basketball goals are in need of repair. It was decided to take them down until they could be fixed for safety reasons. The board would like to get a flag pole to put on the grounds of the Napoleon Senior Center. They are looking at the grant.

All three town board members, Tim Brancamp, Bill Vankirk and Gerry Linarducci were present. Clerk-Treasurer Karen Rohlfing was also present to advise the board. The next regular meeting of the Napoleon Town Board is scheduled for August 10, at 7:00 p.m. at the Napoleon Senior Center.
