Board of Works approves road closures for YMCA Applefest and Turkey Trot
Summary
The Batesville Board of Works approved road-closure permits for two YMCA 5K events: the Applefest 5K on Sept. 27 (10 a.m.–11 a.m.) and the Turkey Trot 5K on Nov. 27, 2025 (8 a.m.–10 a.m.), both using the trail along Coleman Street and Broomwoods.
The Batesville Board of Works voted to approve two road-closure permits for YMCA-organized 5K runs.
Chair described the first request as the Southeastern YMCA’s Applefest 5K, scheduled to run in conjunction with Applefest on Sept. 27, with a requested closure from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. and the second as the Southeast Indiana YMCA’s Turkey Trot 5K on Nov. 27, 2025, requesting a closure from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. The chair said the routes are the same for both events and “they're utilizing the, trail along Coleman Street and Broomwoods.”
Clerk moved to approve both permits; the board voted by voice and the motion carried. No roll-call vote or conditions were recorded on the transcript. The board did not request additional traffic-control details during the meeting; staff will file and process the permits per normal administrative review.
The approvals allow event organizers to proceed with planning under the condition that standard permitting and safety reviews occur. The board took no separate action on traffic management plans during the meeting.
The meeting moved on after the vote; the council meeting was scheduled to start later that evening.
