2009 Directory of Indiana State, County, City and Town Officials 2009 Directory of Indiana State, County, City and Town Offi cials Responsible for Road and Street Work Publication No. INLTAP-RP-1-2009 SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING West Lafayette, Indiana WHAT IS INDIANA LTAP ? Indiana Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP) was estab- lished by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The pur- pose of the LTAP program is to translate the latest, state-of-the-art road, highway and bridge technologies into systems usable by lo- cal highway agencies. LTAP is funded by FHWA, the local agency distribution of the Motor Vehicle Highway Account and Purdue University. This directory is published annually by the Indiana LTAP offi ce at Purdue University. VISION STATEMENT The vision of the Local Technical Assistance Program is to be known and respected throughout the State of Indiana as the primary re- source for training, technical assistance, and technology transfer for government and industry offi cials with local transportation related responsibilities, and to be known throughout the LTAP community as an innovative, aggressive, and productive participant. MISSION STATEMENT The mission of the Indiana Local Technical Assistance Program is to foster a safe, effi cient, environmentally sound transportation sys- tem by improving the skills and knowledge of local transportation providers through training, technical assistance, and technology transfer. COVER PHOTO Project Name: Noble County Bridge Number 5 Owner: Noble County Designer: Strand Associates Construction Inspection: DLZ, Inc. Contractors: Primco Inc./Fox Contractors Corp Description: With the development of an industrial park on the east side of Kendallville, Noble County Road 1000 East has seen a signifi cant increase in traffi c. With a present ADT of almost 5000 vehicles per day it has become the most heavily traveled local roadway in the Noble County Highway system. Norfolk Southern Railroad has approximately 87 trains per day crossing CR1000E at the Noble County/Kendallville Corporate Limits. Concerned with traffi c delays and safety issues, Noble County and the City of Kendallville joined forces on a Federal Aid Project to eliminate the estimated 500,000 vehicle stoppages per year. MSE wall was used to limit the bridge span and the right of way needed in the industrial park. A pedestrian walkway was built under the south approach to facilitate use of the adjacent Kendallville Outdoor Recreation Complex and parking areas located on the east and west side of CR1000E. Non-standard right of way purchasing was allowed by the FHWA which saved over $250,000 in construction costs. Partnering was utilized on this fi ve million dollar plus project which was embraced by all parties including utilities, contractors, Norfolk Southern Railroad, the City of Kendallville and Noble County. Working together ensured that the roadway was closed just over a year for construction and was fi nished before the completion date.

  • Indiana State Senate
    A report to supporters and members of Indiana Business for Responsive Government (IBRG), the Indiana Chamber of Commerce, and allied organizations. This report will be updated as additional election results are received in the hours and days following. Another Election for the Record Books in Indiana Indiana Business for Responsive Government (IBRG), the non-partisan political action program of the Indiana Chamber of Commerce, scored a very successful general election. 48 of 49 IBRG- endorsed candidates facing opposition were victorious, including Republicans and Democrats. Forty-three (43) additional endorsed candidates did not face general election challenges. Twelve (12) new legislators won with IBRG-endorsements. IBRG was significantly-engaged in support of six (6) top-target challenger and open-seat races, as well as successfully defending twelve (12) pro-economy incumbents seriously challenged with defeat. In one of the most dramatic turn of events in years, Republicans won significant battles for state legislative seats across the state to expand their “quorum-proof majorities.” These victories were particularly surprising to those working for months closely in campaigns and candidates, as Indiana’s public opinion environment on issues and views of incumbents was - right up until Election Day - about as bad an environment for Republicans and incumbents as seen in years. This marks the third election cycle in a row that Republicans have expanded their margins in the Indiana House and Senate. The Republicans won a net two (2) seat gain in the Indiana House of Representatives to achieve a 71-29 margin. Four (4) incumbent legislators lost reelection bids in the House (one Republican and three Democrats).

  • State of the Statehouse
    hile elections sometime deliver results that are unexpected (the list is a long one; I’m sure you have your favorite upsets), there are also certain givens leading up to each voting responsibility. Two at the top of the list are: 1. Politicians, or maybe more accurately the people involved in the Wpolitical process, will repeatedly tell us why any election is important. That refrain is amplified in 2010, mostly because it determines who holds the mighty gavel – and pen – the following year. 2. A sea of change is coming, with the party out of power using that mantra to help regain control. The adage applies this time around, but it’s a different type of change than what was experienced two years ago or during the memorable mid-term election of 1994. The Indiana Chamber’s nonpartisan political action committee, Indiana Business for Responsive Government (IBRG), has a focused mission: help elect thoughtful candidates to the Indiana General Assembly who support pro-economy, pro-jobs legislation and initiatives. Jeff Brantley, with 20 years of experience in Indiana in a variety of roles, leads that effort as vice president of political affairs. Kevin Brinegar, Chamber president, has been with this organization for 18 years and involved in the legislative/political process for 30 years. Brinegar uses two key words – power and authority – in addressing topic No. 1. The 2010 election, of course, coincides with the 2010 census. Following the annual people count, the political party that controls the House and Senate in Indiana (and many other states), has the “power and authority to redraw district boundaries.
