E. Jefferson Triangle Land
--- ? 2006 - Jun 2010 Town of Culver
Town of Culver - an Easement to the lake? If this ever existed it is completely gone now as the
Cove, Roberts and Bayview properties line the lakefront and there is "private Property" and "No
tresspassing signs" posted all over the end of E. Jefferson Street. By looks of the property
this triangle of land does not even reach the shores of the lake also.

Culver - is giving up property at the end of Jefferson Street - as found in a public notice
published in the Culver Citizen 4 Feb. 2010. in part as follows:
Notice of Bids
The Town of Culver is currently accepting sealed bids for town owned property at the east end
of Jefferson Street, Culver , Indiana. The property is undeveloped, vacant and triangular in
shape with the deminisons of 550 sq. ft. The property is located off the shoreline of Lake
Maxinkuckee with no lake access, but with lake view and not ability to support any improvements
without encroachment...

It is the light blue highlighted property

Since the property is land locked and of no benfit to anyone but the two adjacent property owners
which is the Culver Cove and the Roberts; it would be safe to assume that one of them will end
up the property. But time will tell. it was valued between $14,590. and $14, 600.
This when original fight for was to have had lake access and was done in 1988-1989; what became of
the lake access protion is unknown. Several people including David Burns and other town officals
at the time fought to retain lake access at the end of Jefferson Street; if memory serves right
they had to appear in the Federal court in South Bend.
Other accesses being fought for at the time included the Daviess, Winfield, and Washington St.; a
limited agreement for Washington Street was reached to allow access to the park area but is unknown
if it still exists or not.
The 18 March 2010 issue of the Culver Citizen in the town board news reports that there was only one
bidder for the property - Glen Roberts for $7,511.
Jun 2010 - - Glen & Martha J. Roberts
