The lawsuit filed in Dubois Circuit Court alleges that property owners are unlawfully preventing the agency from conducting environmental assessments and surveying for the project, which would connect I-64 to I-69 through Spencer, Dubois, and Martin Counties. INDOT claims that State Law allows the agency to do so.
According to court documents, INDOT contacted property owners by mail, phone, and in-person, but were told they could not have access to their properties. INDOT says they were also sent cease and desist letters from an Indianapolis attorney who is representing the property owners. INDOT is now seeking a preliminary injunction to prohibit property owners from interfering with the department's rights of access, surveying and assessment under Indiana law.
