The Marshall County Commissioners will interview applicants in mid-April to populate the Regional Sewer District Board. The commissioners have five appointments to the board.
County Attorney Jim Clevenger previously said nine applications have been received.
Clevenger will be assisting the commissioners in arranging an interview schedule that will be held April 17.
Along with the five appointments by the commissioners, the Marshall County Council will have one appointment and the City of Plymouth will have one appointment for a seven-member board. All members would serve on staggered terms.
The Indiana Department of Environmental Management approved Marshall County’s petition to create a Regional Sewer District in late 2022.
Thirteen Priority Service Areas have been identified to be included in a Regional Sewer District which include, in order of priority, Latonka, Lawrence Lake and Mill Pond areas, followed by Bremen East; North Michigan area; Rushmoor Addition; Donaldson and Ancilla Domini Convent; McQueen’s Broadview; Golfview Estates; Deer Trail, Tall Oaks and Carriage Hills; South Michigan Street; Inwood; Burr Oak; Hawk Lake; and State Road 331 South Tippecanoe. Areas could be added, but the homeowner or entity would have to petition the board that will make all decisions concerning the Regional Sewer District. They could also reprioritize the list.
