Culver Town Council Approves Resolution Concerning Ownership of 17C Road

The Culver Town Council members reviewed a resolution last week that would allow the town to accept a portion of 17C Road from Marshall County that abuts town property.

The town would maintain the road from current town limits to State Road 17 with plans for a streetscape in that area.

Town Attorney Jim Clevenger said there are a couple of parcels along there that extend into the right-of-way and those are not being transferred.  One is located just south of West Jefferson Street, or 17C Road, at State Road 17 along with another small piece. 

Until annexation of those parcels can occur, the title won’t transfer.  Annexation can’t take place until 2020. 

In doing some research, Town Manager Jonathan Leist said the council agreed to do this a few years ago but an agreement wasn’t finalized. 

The council members approved the resolution with a unanimous vote.
