A public hearing has been scheduled for later this month regarding the proposed application permit to allow a high-speed motorboat race on Stone Lake, in LaPorte County. Indiana Conservation Officer Gene Davis says race organizers applied for a special permit through the D-N-R to conduct the race, but before the D-N-R signs off on the race, they want to hear from the public. Davis says the proposed high-speed race would be a smaller version of the races on Lake Michigan and in Michigan City. The public hearing is scheduled for Tuesday March 26th at 6 pm CDT at the LaPorte Best Western Conference Room located at 444 Pine Lake Avenue, LaPorte,  IN,  46350.
