Drainage Board approves revised Dairy Queen development plan in Butler

DeKalb County Drainage Board · August 6, 2026

Summary

The DeKalb County Drainage Board approved a revised site plan for a Dairy Queen Chill & Grill at Jake and Main Streets in Butler that adds a second drive lane and more parking; the county surveyor said the revision stayed within prior drainage calculations.

The DeKalb County Drainage Board voted to approve a revised development plan for a Dairy Queen Chill & Grill at Jake and Main Streets in Butler, IN (Parcel #23-07-11-101-017) during its Aug. 6 meeting.

David Caudillo, representing Dairy Queen, told the board the revised plan adds a second drive lane and additional parking compared with the version presented in July. “We were revising it... currently the plan called for a one-way drive, but they were adding a second lane and additional parking,” Caudillo said. County Surveyor Glenn Crawford reviewed the revision and said it was “good,” noting the changes remained under the calculations set forth by the original plan for the site.

Chairman Bruce Bell asked for a motion to approve the plan; Commissioner Kellen Dooley moved approval and Commissioner Steve Kelham seconded. The board voted to approve the development plan unanimously. Bell thanked Caudillo for his time.

The approval covers work affecting several regulated drains in the area, including the Almira Teutsch Reg. Drain No. 177-00-0, Almira Teutsch Lat 2 Reg. Dr. No. 177-02-0, and Big Run Joint Interstate Drain & Watershed No. 455-00-0. The board did not specify additional conditions or construction timelines at the meeting.
