Hamilton County Reporter correction to downtown bypass story

(The following correction was posted in the November 28 edition of the Hamilton County Reporter)  

The “Noblesville city officials explain new bypass route” story published in Thursday’s edition of The Reporter incorrectly quoted the statement by city officials about the “B” alignment bypass plan, which would have cut through the Plum Prairie Historic District.

The incorrect quote stated that the plan was designated “B-1,” which in fact is the designation of the plan which cuts through a portion of the property occupied by IDI. The corrected portion of the story is below:

“As we have explained to IDI and others, it is our understanding following extensive consultations with State and Federal government representatives that
the B alignment, which cut through the middle of the Plum Prairie Historic District, would disqualify Noblesville from not just state and federal funding for all three phases of this project, but could also disqualify Noblesville from state and federal funding for all future projects, a risk we do not believe is appropriate or in the best interests of our residents.”

The Reporter regrets the error. Read the full version of the corrected story at this link
