Hendricks County backs Jamestown water-improvement grant application; no county funds required

Hendricks County Board of Commissioners · August 25, 2026

Summary

The board approved a multi-jurisdictional agreement allowing the Town of Jamestown to apply for an IOCRA grant to expand water capacity; county approval creates partnership support but carries no financial obligation for Hendricks County.

Josh Hawkins of the Town of Jamestown asked the board to approve a multi-jurisdictional agreement so the town may apply for an IOCRA grant to improve water capacity. Hawkins told the Commissioners both Hendricks and Boone counties are required to agree as partners for the grant application; the agreement does not obligate Hendricks County to provide funding.

Commissioners approved the agreement as presented, 3-0-0. County staff framed the vote as support for Jamestown's grant application only; there was no discussion of local matching funds or other county commitments in the minutes.
