The developer representative, who spoke as Ross, told the council the two ordinances cover separate parcels: 5.56 acres that formerly held a restaurant and 11.397 acres that were previously divided into six lots. \"We're wanting to rezone that 5.56 acres from Business 3 to PUDE, which is a mixed use,\" Ross said. He said the larger parcel also would be rezoned to PUDE and the entire project will be called Hopkins Town Center.

The rezoning follows a unanimous positive recommendation from the planning commission, pending the traffic study. Ross told the council the development is planned to include patio homes and townhomes sold as ownership units, with commercial spaces intended for restaurants, professional offices and small retail. \"There will be nothing except, the rental units will be all market rate. No section 8, or anything like that,\" Ross said. He also said the project will be managed in part by a homeowners association that will maintain exterior common areas while owners keep their building footprint.

Ross described a traffic study by Yarger Traffic Engineering and summarized its conclusions to the council: \"The bottom line is there's no significant impact from this development on the traffic on Bridge Street.\" He added the report recommended that the state transportation department might want to review signal timing at the nearby intersection; Ross emphasized that any signal timing changes would be at the state agency's discretion and expense.

Council members asked about phasing and utilities. Ross said the project could be built in one phase or multiple phases and that water, sewer and gas are available near the sites, though stormwater and pond retention will require specific engineering. He noted the project team plans to route off‑site runoff around an undersized pond that was not originally designed for current flows.

The council made separate motions to accept the planning commission's recommendation for Ordinance 2 20 25 (the 5.56‑acre parcel) and Ordinance 3 20 25 (the 11.397‑acre parcel); both motions passed 5-0. No public speakers opposed the rezones at the council public hearing.

Planning commission materials and the traffic study were provided to council members and are part of the town's file on the project; council members said more detailed site plans will return to the planning commission for approval if the rezoning stands.

The developer said the next formal step will be a detailed site plan and presentations to the planning commission.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Town Council 3.18.2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Mooresville Town Council voted 5-0 on Tuesday to accept the planning commission's recommendation and approve two rezoning ordinances for the Hopkins Town Center project, which the applicant described as a mixed‑use development with for‑sale housing and small commercial spaces.","taxTitle","Mooresville Town, Morgan County, Indiana","taxId",70776,"location","Indiana","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6125654,"Residents urge speed‑control measures on Maple Lane and High Street; council asks police to start enforcement",548,2020000,2568000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2676466-87f365cfe63365c2f7bf615ee686d2db&start=2020&end=2568","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2676466-87f365cfe63365c2f7bf615ee686d2db/thumbnail_2020000.jpg","/articles/6125654/Indiana/Residents-urge-speedcontrol-measures-on-Maple-Lane-and-High-Street-council-asks-police-to-start-enforcement","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6125654-734df97f654dfe09cf83ff899968a217/orig.mp4?Expires=1771107431&Signature=mvSnVu2NEz9weNh9AZZSNbzTkVZPGW8Fgq2YW2CyorCdEnyMswYFEI8xBi7cFcKZm2oNLhtnIw3dLX9hLvzrjUmU7gcMxT8ZsCvFIEBiX2fvK0~y2q-0cn-W8uIzT5SfpP6WmD~RKRNxzPnuOan7RuqJB78biefKWvFewHQB8dJbFv2lwcM3xSWa4MtuGM73ZTLRZindNvkz2L44rGLyYPzNeJfvbQhwmSHk2snTLPMUOezlQe1KVujtPsCitBeEYR9r3pbq5CLaCtfrlGXGrwaDG2I4zFb8tVTccrSLQdCJ1BcrTMz14l6IxDKLcH4J02fsAqVpyCHslw8cWB49zw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Multiple residents raised concerns about persistent speeding in residential neighborhoods during public comment, asking the council to pursue speed bumps, four‑way stops and targeted enforcement to protect children and people using sidewalks.

A resident who identified her address as 410 Maple Lane described repeated high‑speed driving at the Maple Lane and Carlisle corner and urged the council to install large speed bumps: \"People don't care about their neighbors,\" she said, adding that drivers routinely \"run 40, 50 mile an hour\" and that signs alone have not worked. She recounted a recent incident in which a young driver damaged her yard and said the proximity of strollers and children makes the issue urgent.

David Snyder of 51 West Side Street added that High Street and West Washington Street also have speeding problems and described them as \"a drag strip\" in spots. \"I've seen residential neighborhoods install mild speed bumps that make drivers notice; there are ways that we can make cars slow down,\" Snyder said.

Council members and staff responded that they would begin targeted enforcement and traffic data collection. The chief indicated the department would start with radar deployments in the problem areas and examine options such as stop signs, speed tables or other traffic calming measures. One council member said, \"We'll start with traffic and maybe a stop sign; we'll see what we can do.\" The council did not adopt an ordinance or order immediate installations during the meeting; the comments and the data collection were recorded as direction to staff.

Speakers and council members noted constraints: High Street is a state road, which limits local authority over physical traffic calming measures; some existing speed bumps (for example, one noted in front of a Paul Hadley property) are already in place in other neighborhoods and were cited as models. Residents asked that any measures be clearly signed and marked to reduce vehicle damage and maximize safety.

The council said staff would collect accident and speed data, consult relevant manuals, and report back with options at a future meeting.","Several residents told the council that speeding on Maple Lane, Carlisle and High Street is persistent and dangerous for pedestrians and children. Speakers asked for speed bumps, four‑way stops and increased radar enforcement; the council directed police to begin targeted enforcement and said staff will study traffic calming options.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6125658,"Council approves confirmatory resolutions, wastewater write‑off and event banners; Vertical Bridge review deferred",1414,141000,1555000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2676466-87f365cfe63365c2f7bf615ee686d2db&start=141&end=1555","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2676466-87f365cfe63365c2f7bf615ee686d2db/thumbnail_141000.jpg","/articles/6125658/Indiana/Council-approves-confirmatory-resolutions-wastewater-writeoff-and-event-banners-Vertical-Bridge-review-deferred","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6125658-0b25a113326ee47c9579de1ffd6e16e5/orig.mp4?Expires=1771107431&Signature=E6FfI7imXICf1NWwflIdmZr1EzU6AmarD0MflCUFQLaB~t3KssxrM-d-VqX1VkUwu4XILgfqyFrIoYLuDAVpUoX-3Wwr1iMSRGMpnvgg6M1aepPS~Viu87za3Mct2Efvwl3PeX7xvEnAL2iUKf23Tubh-bqnYOaE3s8uTxPtx0g3vi6PR4bSE~8xLNcf6Qrd1942KKnY~vbqrhPQjbsT-VSd7LU61oK2GivGbDiQO4NBowKtSycxXCIsj4lgdMr0jAfpBfC~MfeMKEtfkw7wlunMInpbJ5HwcwDFmfPepX37e8BWazLWGbn901GcxV-6LQIcPPSIz6sIQvdgx-ZbYw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Mooresville Town Council on Tuesday approved a series of routine and financial items, including confirmatory resolutions for development projects, a wastewater bad‑debt write‑off and permission for a local veterans banner program. The council deferred action on a cellular lease renewal request pending further review.

Confirmatory resolutions: The council held public hearings with no speakers in opposition and approved three confirmatory resolutions by unanimous vote (5-0): Confirmatory Resolution 9 20 25 (Innovation Park), Confirmatory Resolution 10 20 25 (Sun Polymer, personal property) and Resolution 11 20 25 (Sun Polymer, real property improvements and designation as an economic redevelopment area). Each public hearing was opened and closed with no public comment; the council then voted to adopt the resolutions.

Wastewater bad‑debt write‑off: Diane from the clerk's office presented a recommendation to write off uncollectible wastewater accounts for 2024 totaling $6,416.96. The council approved the write‑off 5-0 after the clerk said collection efforts had been exhausted and explained that sewer charges follow property ownership in some cases.

DAR military banners: Anne Moore, representing the Daughters of the American Revolution local chapter, asked permission to place and number approximately 40 military banners along High Street for the 2025–26 season; the council granted approval and accepted the group's proposal for installation and retrieval logistics.

Vertical Bridge agreement: Council members agreed to defer final action on a proposed agreement with Vertical Bridge to allow additional review. A council member asked for more time to compare the current draft to the original agreement and noted a concern about renewal terms that suggested a later expiration date than the original five‑year automatic renewals.

Claims and payroll: The council approved payment of claims as presented (motion recorded for $1,283,198.72) and approved payroll clearing (amount stated in the minutes as \"228,900 or $292.17\"). Both motions were recorded as passed 5-0.

Other routine business included department reports and the setting of the next council meeting for Tuesday, April 1; the council also scheduled a public meeting on the fire territory.","At its March 18 meeting the Mooresville Town Council approved three confirmatory resolutions related to Innovation Park and Sun Polymer, approved a wastewater bad‑debt write‑off and granted permission for DAR military banners; the Vertical Bridge agreement was deferred for further review.","actionData","errors"]
