The Starke County Council members did hold a public hearing Monday evening to gather public comment on the 2018 budget, but the lack of a quorum has forced a second public hearing.
The council needs to have at least four members present to recognize a quorum. Members Brad Hazelton, Nancy Dembowski and Bryan Cavendar were physically present Monday night for the public hearing. It was thought that if a fourth member could be part of the meeting via teleconference, it could be a legally called meeting. It was found that the meeting cannot be counted as legal so a second public hearing is scheduled.
The Starke County Council will conduct that hearing on Monday, Oct. 16 at 5:30 p.m. CT in the meeting room in the Starke County Annex Building No. 1 in Knox.

Budget Hearing Scheduled for NJ Town Council Meeting Tonight
Posted on October 2, 2017
Author Jacque Ryan, WKVI
The North Judson Town Council is scheduled to hold a public hearing for their proposed 2018 Budget when members meet tonight at 6:30 p.m. According to Indiana Gateway, the budget estimate submitted for the general fund is $728,584, while the total estimated budget amounts to $983,546.
The meeting agenda states that council members will discuss the railroad bank account that was established during a meeting in September. At that meeting, they passed an ordinance designating an account where all funds railroad related would go. That includes money set aside for renovations as well as revenue received from the railroad company.
Council members will also hold the first reading over a new ordinance as well as revisit the animal ordinance. At the last meeting, a working document of the animal ordinance was presented by Town Attorney Justin Schramm. The council members have been gathering research to contribute to the ordinance in order to ensure a suitable solution can be made on this matter that has spanned several months.

A public hearing on the North Judson-San Pierre School Corporation’s proposed 2018 budget will be held during tonight’s Starke County Council meeting.
Council members will also expected set a pay rate for a part-time Emergency Management Agency director. The position is currently open, after Jacob Lippner was fired by the county commissioners back in May.
This evening’s Starke County Council meeting starts at 5:30, followed by the Starke County Commissioners meeting at 6:00. The commissioners are scheduled to hear from Highway Superintendent Rik Ritzler about a county-wide sign and speed limit ordinance, the installation of ADA-compliant ramps, and paving the Annex Building parking lot.
Additionally, Coroner Dannie Hoffer is expected to continue discussing the cost of autopsies with both the council and commissioners. Last month, he said his autopsy budget took a hit, due to accidental overdose cases. Both groups will also get their monthly update from the Starke County Economic Development Foundation. Both meetings will be held in Starke County Annex Building No. 1.
