Hancock County, IN - 7/23/2026 Plat Committee Meeting

The Hancock County Plat Committee held a meeting on July 23, 2026, to review and approve two minor subdivision plats. The first subdivision involved dividing a small field near US 40 in the village of Cleveland into three lots, with minor technical comments addressed, including drainage considerations involving a county highway ditch. The committee unanimously approved the subdivision. The second subdivision concerned a 3.12-acre tract on Meridian Road, where the owner plans to sell the parcel and build a house on the remaining land. A key procurement-related issue was the recording of an offsite easement for drainage tile installation, which was confirmed to be agreed upon and required to be recorded prior to plat recording. The committee approved this subdivision with the condition regarding the easement. The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn.
