taxes property tax levies

2013 payable by source

Property taxes are one of the primary (if not the only) ways for municipalities to raise revenue for community services. Towns and cities use the proceeds from levying property taxes to fund the public school system, law enforcement and emergency service personnel wages; to install and maintain roadways and traffic equipment (such as streetlights and road signs); and to pay for trash pickup, snow removal and other services that benefit the community

populace River Ridge The transformation continues for the former Indiana Army Ammunition Plant that more than six decades ago produced smokeless powder and rocket propellants for the U.S. Army. About a decade after the plant ceased operations – it was decommissioned in the 1990s – the process of transferring land from the government to an independent board created by the Clark County Commissioners began. Nearly 6,000 acres of land is being transferred to create the River Ridge Commerce Center. The River Ridge Development Authority has already received more than half of the property along Ind. 62, in Jeffersonville and Charlestown that used to make up the former ammunition plant. Growth at River Ridge is expected to continue as additional infrastructure projects continue to improve the commerce center’s logistical options.

River Ridge is adjacent to the Port of Indiana-Jeffersonville, railways, three major interstates, regional and international airports and the UPS Worldport. Construction is underway on the Ohio River Bridges Project, a plan to expand the downtown Interstate 65 corridor, reconstruct Spaghetti Junction and construct a new east-end bridge. The east-end portion of the project will complete the I-265 loop connecting Prospect, Ky. to Utica, just south of the River Ridge Commerce Center. Construction on the east-end bridge and its approaches is scheduled to be complete in October 2016. Several roadway improvements surrounding the bridges project are also in the works near River Ridge, including a heavy-haul corridor that would connect the commerce center to the Port of Indiana-Jeffersonville.

CRIME uniform FBI statistics

offenses known to law enforcement

The FBI compiles crime statistics from law enforcement around the country. While crime categories can certainly buck any trends in a particular year, here is a snapshot of 2013 — the most recent full year of statistics available by city and county.

(by county)

violent crime

Violent crime is composed of four offenses: murder and nonnegligent manslaughter, forcible rape, robbery, and aggravated assault. Violent crimes are defined as those offenses which involve force or threat of force.

property crime

Property crime includes the offenses of burglary, larceny-theft, motor vehicle theft and arson. The object of the theft-type offenses is the taking of money or property, but there is no force or threat of force against the victims. More information about property crime and an overview of property crime data for 2010 is provided in the property crime section of this report.

are most polluted by year round particle pollution. The area also ranked 18th out of 277 metro areas for high ozone days and 36th out of 277 for 24-hour particle pollution. In addition, the organization’s website,

stateoftheair.org, lists clean air grades for individualized counties based on several air quality standards. The results for Floyd and Clark counties are below.
