I sent INPCRP a copy of questions I sent to the city regarding cemeteries
under the Indy Works Proposal. Indy Works is Mayor Bart's plan to to end the
Township government system in Marion County. All township duties, except the
school systems, would be consolidated under the city/county UNIGOV. The reason for
this is the city/county financial problem due to the current economy, and
things that were not dealt with over the last 30 years
I am a township trustee. I think Mayor Bart Peterson wants to consolidate
government for one reason....money. Townships are financially stable, city
government is not. Each year we have to budget and stay within our budget.
If we don't have enough money to maintain our township cemeteries, do you
think under the Mayor's plan we will? Volunteer fire departments will be hurt
the most. I just don't trust this plan. Linda
