A public hearing on the North Judson-San Pierre School Corporation’s proposed 2018 budget will be held during tonight’s Starke County Council meeting.
Council members will also expected set a pay rate for a part-time Emergency Management Agency director. The position is currently open, after Jacob Lippner was fired by the county commissioners back in May.
This evening’s Starke County Council meeting starts at 5:30, followed by the Starke County Commissioners meeting at 6:00. The commissioners are scheduled to hear from Highway Superintendent Rik Ritzler about a county-wide sign and speed limit ordinance, the installation of ADA-compliant ramps, and paving the Annex Building parking lot.
Additionally, Coroner Dannie Hoffer is expected to continue discussing the cost of autopsies with both the council and commissioners. Last month, he said his autopsy budget took a hit, due to accidental overdose cases. Both groups will also get their monthly update from the Starke County Economic Development Foundation. Both meetings will be held in Starke County Annex Building No. 1.
