State will help finance mergers

I was not aware of this fact, so perhaps some readers were not as well. The State of Indiana is prepared to help communities finance the cost of merging operations, consolidating services, and creating efficiencies.

I have stated a few times before here on this site, where are Chesterton and Burns Harbor and Porter ... are they talking about service mergers?

The above linked article refers also to the merger that becomes official in Zionsville where the City is merging with two townships. This will eliminate the first two townships to be eliminated in the entire state since Lincoln was President. What about Valparaiso and Center township, or Portage and Portage township?
