Summary

The October 8 Peaine Township report records new bid-procedure guidelines, approval of the Hideaway Trail name, committee appointments, a civil-infraction fine schedule, tax-collection computer assistance, and proposed 1997-98 road projects with speed signs. It also records 911 reflective-house-number information and correspondence about Kuebler Trail.

Evidence limits

This is a condensed newspaper report, not the complete township minutes or independent proof of each project’s later completion.

Open questions

  • What prompted the Kuebler Trail property letter, and how was it resolved?
  • Does the approved “Hideaway Trail” road name correspond to a route on today’s map?
  • Were the proposed 1997-98 road projects and speed-sign installations completed?

If you can answer any of these, or correct anything above, the archive wants to hear it — see Corrections.
