Code enforcement officer Cody Forsman reported the department's weekly activity before the item: the office issued 24 new trash notices, cleared 53 properties, had 51 pending, sent one notice to appear, ordered two property cleanups, tagged three additional vehicles, issued four citations, and towed five vehicles. Forsman also said there remain 26 vehicles pending and 22 first notices for grass.

On 1410 Smead Street, staff said trash and debris led to prior notices; the property owner has erected a fence without a permit that now obstructs the right of way view and prevents staff from confirming whether the camper and debris have been removed. Staff said someone appears to be living in the camper; building department records show no permit for the fence.

Staff recommended ordering the cleanup so work could proceed once the property is accessible. Board members discussed fines and procedural options; staff noted a $30 citation can be issued for the camper and a $100 notice-to-appear fine had not been paid. Deputy Mayor Jacob Ponceau moved to order the cleanup, with the order to proceed once the fence permit issue is resolved and the property is accessible; the motion passed with yes votes recorded from Levi Jones and Jacob Palmaso.

Staff said further enforcement could include planning or unsafe-structure penalties if the fence and access issues persist; no specific dollar fines beyond the $30 camper citation were imposed during the meeting.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Board of Public Works and Safety","oneSentenceSummary","Logansport code enforcement reported dozens of notices and ordered cleanup for 1410 Smead Street, citing an unpermitted fence that obstructs inspection and an inhabited camper; the board voted to order cleanup pending fence-permit action.","taxTitle","Logansport City, Cass County, Indiana","taxId",63775,"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},6187489,"Board approves street closures for three summer and fall city events, including state-highway festival approval pending DOT timing",125,611000,736000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5070079-6d89b99c3d15719bbeb4021005f34e1e&start=611&end=736","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5070079-6d89b99c3d15719bbeb4021005f34e1e/thumbnail_611000.jpg","/articles/6187489/Indiana/Board-approves-street-closures-for-three-summer-and-fall-city-events-including-state-highway-festival-approval-pending-DOT-timing","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6187489-811426b787a744d07e46cf77a99e822f/orig.mp4?Expires=1771187517&Signature=e4ovGZi1oQa3feHx5-e1YyTEkQctV8quMVQHQO-FLL19lRsfRxU-8UQHXyIjiNCu2fkInWxyFu9MIJm5BBymFBZgwJThIku7IrTjuNTOVQ~UkrUtzzZN-9kyXiB1CjEC9y1Jj8p2YH7FwvcrHLiPppPD9FkM1-dkbBEETMAkDzRRVwc2q9DZ8thG7nMAE-DME5R0BTwYb3DydQ~VMsIS7LaCDa0gtEmqrKy1cyJgiVfoAIqDukXRx861S0v61Ze6ZSdcjUXRLyusuycxldbUpmPWVV~x5h0ScDHhDs8TJ8WAC6LmPPI0MH7-eDu6LuKMjr~~Ixn6SgnaaqdBI9veNQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Logansport City Board of Public Works and Safety approved three separate city street-closure requests during its June 25 meeting: a Loveland's Landing \"Chock the Block\" Art Festival, the Hornet Creek Festival on Sept. 13, and a temporary closure for All Saints' mobile food pantry on June 27.

Street department staff presented the Loveland's Landing request to close North Street from Fifth Street to an adjacent block for a festival scheduled July 26; staff said the closure would not impede highway traffic and the festival itself runs from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. The board approved the request by voice vote.

For the Hornet Creek Festival, staff said applicants requested closing Sixth Street from East Broadway to the north for a beer-and-wine festival on Sept. 13 and that the group had approval from the Indiana Department of Transportation (NDOT) for the closure. Staff recommended the board retain authority to shift the closure start time if needed; they suggested a possible change from a 6 a.m. start to 8 a.m. if required. The board approved the closure on the city's end; NDOT retains authority over state-highway timing.

All Saints asked to block Second Street to operate a mobile food pantry June 27 from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.; the board approved that request as presented.

Motions to accept each street-closure request passed with yes votes recorded from Jacob Palmaso and Levi Jones. Staff noted the street department will issue any necessary permits and coordinate traffic detours, including routing traffic onto Fourth Street where noted.","The board accepted city street-closure requests for a July art festival, a Sept. 13 Hornet Creek festival on (part of) a state highway pending Indiana DOT timing, and an All Saints mobile food pantry on June 27.",{"_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},6187494,"Logansport fire department promotes Levi Polan to house captain, effective June 24",45,534000,579000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5070079-6d89b99c3d15719bbeb4021005f34e1e&start=534&end=579","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5070079-6d89b99c3d15719bbeb4021005f34e1e/thumbnail_534000.jpg","/articles/6187494/Indiana/Logansport-fire-department-promotes-Levi-Polan-to-house-captain-effective-June-24","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6187494-3b1b703a8d55741785bb51a83c69fbcb/orig.mp4?Expires=1771187517&Signature=Ah8nuZEq2dL4IUtnQ7lKsqEG2PGeTtlGn-5nqdnVLNoBOCii4n5zLG2Yhhezn5dTACvZyak~BGU6PmO7Qv12HP83C0HdI6YWEHwh44EYTxQr2W3h51HMCgaS2O1pDk82ir27IuhC97hFX8w9TQd4Kd0zIkZSc8pFYCPEA1Um3lr0oNkl1AEtp3jCTLWdknLldjspELg3slfi50XjKI7MHcAWeNpGy52W0N8s7v014VecLwlbaehbzYJbzBx09VmVaVqEoh9Qi4hj1HAb0Kz4PO4d30Ai3enjv1gtmcsozLmJn9edlxu3wJ5sNnZ56Qlu6qvgn1uzTxMjc~SYtafZBw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Logansport City Board of Public Works and Safety accepted a request to promote Levi Polan to the position of house captain for the Logansport Fire Department, effective June 24, 2025.

Organizers told the board they have arranged for EMS ambulance coverage when available, requested a waiver of the city's noise ordinance for music and fireworks, and asked that the board allow closing certain streets from noon to midnight for the event. Deputy Mayor Jacob Ponceau moved to approve the request; the motion passed with votes recorded for Jacob Palmaso and Levi Jones.

The event organizer, Jan, told the board that music will run from 6 p.m. to 10 p.m. and that \"we should have all the loud noises done by 11.\" Jan also said organizers expect about a dozen vendors and encouraged attendees to walk or bike; the Vibrant Event Center parking lot will be used for overflow parking. The organizers said Denzel Drive will be closed to non-event staff, Riverside Drive will be reserved for vehicles with handicap placards, and staff and maintenance crews will manage traffic and parking during the event.

Board members confirmed the street-closure window submitted with the request runs from noon to midnight. The motion recorded the approval of the noise variance and street closure as presented.

The board did not discuss any permitting conditions in detail during the vote. No public commenters spoke on the item during the meeting.

The city and event organizers will implement traffic flow plans after the event; organizers said they plan to direct exiting traffic west on Ray Street and High Street and route vehicles via Fifteenth Street to disperse traffic.","The Logansport Board of Public Works and Safety approved a noise-variance request and street closures for the city's July 4 celebration, including a noon-to-midnight closure, planned vendors, and on-site EMS coverage.","actionData","errors"]
