Commission approves Bullseye Jack commercial subdivision; neighbors seek water, sewer and ditch fixes
The Vigo County Area Plan Commission approved a major subdivision called Bullseye Jack, a proposed 21.03‑acre, eight‑lot commercial development west of Highway 40/46, with conditions including required FAA/aviation forms and NDOT/Indot permits, drainage and erosion control approvals, and bonding for infrastructure if needed.

Staff told the commission the property lies within the 65 DNL airport noise contour around Terre Haute Regional Airport, Holman Field, and noted the project requires an FAA filing (transcript: “form 74 60”) and Office of Aviation review for development within runway approach zones. The staff report also said TIF funds would be used to assist infrastructure development and that a public 60‑foot frontage road and cul‑de‑sac are included in the plat.

At least one nearby resident, Elsa Morris, asked whether the new water and sewer lines would be available to six nearby houses north of the property. Staff and commissioners replied that decisions about extending service are matters for the utility provider; staff said bringing public water or sewer to adjacent properties could be complex and costly, noting prior projects required substantial water main work (the transcript referenced an example involving a large bore and $200,000 cost). Staff recommended that residents contact Indiana American Water or the mayor’s office about utility outreach; the mayor was reported to be arranging an Indiana American representative to meet with residents.

Residents also asked about an open ditch that has flooded backyards in the past. Staff said the development’s drainage will be directed to city storm infrastructure (two 60‑inch pipes and a retention pond constructed in 2019) and that the specific ditch near one resident would not be altered by this project. Staff recommended approval with the standard condition that final road cut permits, FAA forms, and drainage approvals be obtained prior to recordation or permitting.

The commission approved the subdivision by voice vote and attached the listed conditions. The staff report flagged potential concerns about available water capacity and noted public water is available to parts of the site but commitments from the water utility were not provided in the staff report.
