During a recent government meeting, officials discussed important funding for capital projects in Zionsville. The town received $1.9 million from the Ready 1.0 program and is hopeful for additional support through the Ready 2.0 application. The first phase funded design work, while the second phase aims to finance construction for a road realignment.

Officials highlighted the need for further investment in various projects, particularly in the South Village and downtown areas. They mentioned potential improvements to parking and infrastructure, including plans for Dairy Queen-related upgrades. These enhancements are part of a broader strategy to boost local development.

A key point of discussion was the necessity of real estate transactions for road realignment. This may involve purchasing land to accommodate the new road layout, especially south of Sycamore.

The meeting concluded with a unanimous vote to approve the proposed 2025 budget. A resolution and spending plan will be prepared for action at the next meeting in November, ensuring compliance with state filing requirements.
