Clark County Indiana Highway Department

The Clark County Highway Department is responsible for paving and repairing over 1000 miles of roads and most bridges throughout the county. This routinely involves removing debris, trees, or other obstructions in the county roadway while maintaining ditches, culverts and drainage structures. The Highway Department also builds and installs regulatory signs in alignment with the U.S. Department of Transportation MUTCD guidelines. Each year the County Engineer and Highway Superintendent use data collected on county roads to make important decisions about preserving and paving roads and bridges.

The Highway Department is responsible for snow removal from county roads. The Highway Superintendent and County Engineer keep a close watch on weather conditions and in collaboration with the Clark County Emergency Management Agency and other departments, make decisions based on the county’s best interest. During a snow event, the county will make major arteries our first priority, followed by secondary roads and then subdivisions.

The County Engineer, overseen by the County Commissioners, diligently looks for state and federal funding for multi-year projects. The County Engineer also oversees permitting and county funded projects. The Highway Superintendent heads all aspects of the Highway Garage. He works with vendors to ensure best pricing for highway equipment and supplies while leading the Highway Garage to use resources responsibly. The Highway Department works closely with other government agencies to ensure that the needs of county residents are met as quickly and efficiently as possible.

The chief responsibility of the coroner is to determine the manner of death in cases involving violence, casualty, unexplained or suspicious circumstances or when the person has been found dead. {IC 36-2-14-6}

When notified of a death under any of the above circumstances, the coroner must alert and obtain the investigative assistance of the law enforcement agency having jurisdiction in the area. When the coroner determines the cause of death, the law requires the coroner to file a report of his or her findings with the local health officer. If an autopsy is necessary,the coroner must employ a qualified physician to conduct it. Additional reports of the cause of death must be filed with the clerk of the circuit court.

A county coroner, who is also a licensed physician is entitled to one-and-one-half times as much compensation as a non-physician coroner. {IC 36-2-14-15} (Generally see IC 36-2-14,for duties of the county coroner.)
