Welcome to the
Town of Corydon

The Town of Corydon, with a population of 3,122 residents, is located in Harrison County Indiana. Corydon was the first state capital until the legislature made a move to its current location of Indianapolis in 1825. Corydon and Harrison County are rich in history, as evidenced by the many historic properties, caves, and landmarks easily found within this small area.
In 2016, Corydon was designated a winner in the Indiana Stellar competition program. The leadership in Corydon is currently using this opportunity to bring vitality and life to this small town, moving it into the future, while still striving to maintain the rich, historic past and beloved hometown ambiance.
I am happy to join the team at the Town of Corydon as Town Manager. I bring with me over 30 years of utility experience, but I still have a lot to learn about how the town does business. Please be patient with me as I learn my new role.
I will be working with the Town Council, staff, engineers and other consultants on many exciting projects. The town is blessed to have the staff that we do. The water, wastewater, street, maintenance and cemetery staff are dedicated, and do a wonderful job of taking care of our town and its residents. The Town Hall staff are both professional and pleasant in dealing with questions from the public and answering billing inquiries. This entire group works tirelessly in service to your community and deserves acknowledgement for their dedication.
The town has seen many upgrades in the past few years. Bi-centennial Park, Rice Island and all the Stellar Project improvements, just to name a few. Many people have been involved in these projects and all should be acknowledged for their dedication and commitment.
I look forward to seeing the proposed skate park come to fruition and will be working to gain donations and other grant funding. We have great partners with the skate park project in the Community Foundation, Chamber of Commerce, and Main Street Corydon. Other projects include: building a new storage building behind the Town Cemetery; an Urban Trail Project through town; various streets and alleys being paved; water mains being replaced on Slemmons and McKinster Streets; and other water and wastewater projects.
