Commissioners table proposed 20 mph speed limit on CR 300 S
Summary
Parke County commissioners heard Ordinance 2026-05, which would set a 20 mph limit on a segment of County Road 300 S, but decided to table the measure after questions from commissioners.
The Parke County Board of Commissioners on Feb. 16 heard Ordinance 2026-05, a proposal to set the speed limit at 20 miles per hour on County Road 300 S between the Walker Boat Ramp Road intersection and Graves Road. The ordinance, prepared by Nick Sauter, said violators could face a class C infraction with fines up to $500.
Commissioners asked questions about the proposal; after discussion, Commissioner Dan Collom moved to table the ordinance and Commissioner Bruce Hartman seconded. The motion carried unanimously, leaving the issue pending further work or clarification.
The ordinance was introduced to the board but not adopted; no vote on adoption took place. The board did not provide a timeline for returning the ordinance to a future meeting.
