Area Planning workload rises in Vigo County subdivision ordinance
Vigo County Area Planning Department projects surge after subdivision control ordinance enactment. APD director John Hanley says 66 subdividing projects have been handled, mostly by contractors in unincorporated areas. The ordinance concentrates approval power with the area plan commission and imposes strict construction standards across lots, streets, utilities, and public spaces.
