Jack,
If you don't find one in Indiana, we had one here in El Dorado County. BUT,
the Fish & Game dept. nixed the project because of impacts to Red-Legged
Frogs (which can't be found in the project zone). Now the developer has
defaulted on his loan payments on the property and we are hurriedly trying
to get the county to fence the cemetery (and all graves) before the
foreclosure sale occurs and we have to begin all over again with a new
developer!

Subject: [INPCRP] DEVELOPERS THAT HAVE SPARED A CEMETERY
Does annyone on the list have any verifyiable information on a Developer
that
has saved a cemetery in the state of Indiana and incorprated it into
his
project. Ben Hershberg Southern Indiana News Bureau corespondant of the
Louisville Courier Journal would like to put it in his story. I spent 2
hrs
with him and a photographer, and the New Albany Twp. Trustee
disscussing
and
looking at sites that have been moved, destroyed, and the one saved.
He
says
If one can or will do it, why can't more instead of moving them.
If you
know
of such a cemetery let me know. The Indy Star is also interested.
(The
Trustee carrys a petition with him to get everyone he talks to, to sign)
??
