We’ve seen a few questions about the geotechnical work currently taking place on the site and wanted to provide some clarity.

The work being performed is a standard geotechnical evaluation which is an early step used to better understand soil and subsurface conditions for future construction planning. Crews are collecting soil samples and data that help engineers design safe and stable foundations.

A couple important clarifications:
• This is not water well drilling
• No groundwater is being extracted or used
• The work is temporary and limited in scope

This type of evaluation is a routine part of responsible site development and is being conducted by licensed professionals.

We appreciate the community’s interest and want to keep communication open as the project moves forward.

In addition to celebrating Economic Development Week, we're also recognizing Small Business Week. The Small Business Administration classifies any company with less than 500 employees as a small business, which qualifies most of our local businesses.

Fun fact: If every U.S. family spent an extra $10 a month at a local business, it would return over $9.3 billion to the economy.

We offer support to small businesses through a partnership with the East Central Indiana Small Business Development Center. Learn more about their services at isbdc.org
