(New Carlisle, IN) - A public survey is being conducted for people who live and work in and around New Carlisle.

The subject is a proposed community center possibly on the outskirts of town. A steering committee consisting of representatives from the town of New Carlisle, Olive Township, and New Prairie United School Corporation has been discussing options for such a project. At the end of last year, the St. Joseph County Council approved $195,000 for Wightman Associates to conduct a feasibility study.

Land near the town’s grocery store and the Crown Event Center is a possible landing spot for the center, which could include outdoor and indoor athletic facilities and public gathering spaces. Right now, there is no commitment to build a community center, and what amenities one might include depends on public feedback.
