From a lengthy story in the Hendricks County Flyer:
Town officials here met this week with representatives of Brown and Lincoln townships to further discuss a consolidation plan put forth by a reorganization committee.
“Consolidation, consolidation, consolidation,” were Town Council President Dwayne Sawyer’s words when he was asked what was the most important issue facing the town early in 2012.
The plan of reorganization that was submitted by the committee was struck down in a first reading when the Brownsburg and Lincoln Township officials voted to reject the document due to concerns that it would cut the Brownsburg Fire Territory’s equipment replacement fund by more than $580,000.
Brown Township’s board did vote to approve a revised version of the reorganization document, which will need to be completed by noon on July 25.
...
The next step in this process is a public hearing set for July 10, followed by an introduction of a revised reorganization plan due on July 25 to comply with an Aug. 1 deadline. Even if a revised document is submitted, however, town and township officials say it likely won’t be capable of having a remedy to the state statute regarding the equipment replacement fund.
...
Public comments will be taken at the July 10 meeting.
