Culver Town Council to Gather Opinions on Housing Project Tonight

The Culver Town Council will hold a public input session tonight to gather opinions on the proposed Sand Hill Farms workforce housing project. Public comment will be taken at 6:30 p.m. prior to the start of tonight’s regular meeting agenda.

Town Manager Jonathan Leist explained that the project has been in the town’s comprehensive plan since the plan’s adoption in 2014. The lack of housing was identified as one of the main issues in the plan. Leist said a committee was formed to look into the project. It is part of this year’s Stellar Communities grant application. Culver town officials should know Wednesday, May 24 if Culver is a finalist in the application process.

Following the public input, the town council plans to discuss the housing development agreement with the housing developer Kevin Berger.

The town council also plans to discuss money match for the Marshall County Community Foundation’s “On My Way”. The members of the Taste of Culver have submitted a request to have alcohol in the Culver Town Park and the town council members will be reviewing that inquiry tonight.

The Culver Town Council will meet at 6:30 p.m. tonight at the Culver Town Hall.
