Commissioners approve move of Harrison County Parks offices...

Yesterday the commissioners unanimously approved a move of the Harrison County Parks Department offices from the government Center at 245 Atwood St to the Presbyterian church downtown at 126 Walnut St. Their former offices at the government center will be filled by the public defender board.

The church is owned by Friends Of Corydon Capitol State Historical Site, and will be used by the Parks Department...the financials of this situation were not disclosed.

It is especially important to note that Shickles is the principal officer of the Friends of Corydon Capitol State Historical Site: https://www.guidestar.org/profile/35-2017645

Shickles mentioned that while there is no concrete timeline, the Parks Department is interested in constructing their own office building onsite at one of the parks. More details on that to come.
