Carlisle Becomes Warren County Village After Study
Warren County Commissioners authorized drafting a resolution to incorporate Carlisle as a village after over a year of debate.

Carlisle becomes the 13th incorporated village, freeing it from county and township control. Residents wonder about fire protection by Franklin and Miami Township departments and the steps to form a local government.
