The form of the town government

As it stands, November 2026

A three-member council and a clerk-treasurer, under the town code. Every current record reached shows a council of three. Under the Indiana Code's town frame (IC 36-5-2), the council is the legislative body, its president the town executive (IC 36-5-2-7), and the clerk-treasurer is clerk of the council with a tie-breaking vote in it ex officio (IC 36-5-2-8); terms run four years. The clerk-treasurer is a separate elected office. How Lakeville elects its three — at large or by district — is stated in no record reached, and the want stands as a named gap with the town's ordinance and the municipal ballot record as its settlers; the sister build settled its town's mode from a ballot label, and no Lakeville ballot label was reached here. The council's reached meetings of 2025–2026 all sit at 6:00 p.m. — 5 and 15 May, 3 and 19 November, 29 December 2025, and 5 January 2026, roughly twice monthly on varying weekdays — a pattern of dated meetings, not a stated rule; the minutes of 19 November 2025 record that the year-end meeting would approve the meetings for 2026, and the approved list itself was not reached (named gap). The town hall's street number itself varies between carriers — 105 South Michigan Street in a places listing under the town's older domain, 118 South Michigan Street, Post Office Box 137, in a directory's administration table, the telephone (574) 784-8311 agreeing in both — printed whole in the register, with the town's own published contact record as settler. The town's live site stands at townoflakevilleindiana.com; an older domain, lakevilleindiana.org, still fronts the listings. The township trustee's office at 117 South Main Street is a different office on a different street, and the two are not to be confused.
