A nuisance hearing was scheduled to take place. The Commission was notified that the nuisance at 3460 South and 1145 East had been abated. A dismiss order was approved and signed.
The Commissioners opened three bids that were received to do concrete work for the resurfacing of Delt Park Drive. Hostetler Concrete submitted a bid of $155,100; Shetler Construction had a bid of $104,988 and Michiana Builders, who had a bid of $100,045.
