TOWN  HALL  STAFF

West  Baden  Springs  Town  Hall Staff 

The West Baden Springs Town Hall staff consists of individuals involved in the administration and governance of the town.

The West Baden Springs Town Council has broad authority to establish policies, except where prohibited by state or federal law. The Council acts as a body, with all members holding equal power, despite the ceremonial roles of the President and Vice President. Policies are set by majority vote, binding the entire Council, while staff implement these policies without bias towards dissenting opinions. Members are encouraged to participate in regional and national meetings and report back on their activities.

Organization  of  Town  Council

The West Baden Springs Town Council is organized by the election of a President and Vice President at the first meeting held each calendar year. If the President and/or Vice President are not elected at the first meeting of the calendar year, the President and/or Vice President will continue to serve until an election is held. In a new year in which Council Members remain the same, the Council may elect the President and Vice President at its last meeting of the previous year. The result will be noted in the first meeting of the New Year, with the minutes reflecting the election results. If the President or Vice President resigns or dies, the Town Council shall elect a successor among the remaining Council Members to complete such officer’s term of office.

Monthly  Meetings

The West Baden Town Council holds regular meetings on the First and Third Mondays of each month at 6:00 p.m. in the West Baden Springs Town Hall. These sessions focus on town matters, proposal reviews, and decisions that promote community growth and well-being. Before the first council meeting each month, the West Baden Plan Commission meets at 5:30 p.m. to address planning and zoning issues, supporting responsible development and land use. All meetings take place at 8331 West State Road 56, West Baden Springs, IN 47469. Residents are encouraged to attend and engage in these public discussions.
