Montgomery County, IN
County SR 32 Interchange Economic Development Plan
This eastern gateway to Crawfordsville and Montgomery County had development opportunity, but the lack of infrastructure and zoning controls was limiting interest. HWC led planning for interchange development, which promoted key actions by the county. First, the county initiated their first comprehensive plan and later adopted the first zoning controls for the county. Later, infrastructure planning for the interchange was authorized. As a result of implementing HWC’s recommendations, the county was able to attract a $138 million investment and 300 jobs at the interchange.
