There was a chill in the air Tuesday morning outside Fishers City Hall as the routine meeting of the Fishers Board of Works and Public Safety got underway. Mayor Scott Fadness reassured those at the session loud noises around City Hall, heard in the meeting room, were workers starting to install the Christmas decorations. This is the first holiday season for the new Fishers City Hall/Arts Center.
The board approved a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for $50,000 in the 2025 city budget providing “experiential” learning by Hamilton Southeastern (HSE) students at Ritchey Woods (1st Grade), AgriPark (2nd Grade), City Hall (3rd Grade), and the Maker Playground (5th Grade). The school board will vote on approving the MOU Wednesday.
“I think it is impressive that this is above and beyond our half-million dollar Innovation Grant,” Mayor Fadness said. “It shows strong support for the schools.”
