Old Town of Broad Ripple Meeting Minutes #138
posted: Apr. 04, 2014

The Town of Broad Ripple was incorporated in 1894, and started holding regular meetings at that time. In each issue, I will print my transcription of the old Town of Broad Ripple meeting minutes. These are taken from the original, hand-written minutes that contain many spelling errors. I have transcribed all the records as they were entered, including errors. I will make some corrections to the text in brackets [ ]. The original minutes books are at the Indiana State Archives at 6440 E. 30th St.

Here is the one-hundred thirty-eighth installment:
Continuation of list of names of voters of the town of Broad Ripple demanding a referendum of an ordinance entitled "An Ordinance granting to Indianapolis Northern traction Company, its successors and assigns, authority to construct, maintain and operate an interurban street railroad over, along and upon certain streets in the town of Broad Ripple, in the County of Marion and State of Indiana."

Broad Ripple Ind.
Apr. 7th 1903
