History


Center Township was named from its position at the geographical center of Howard County.[3]

Townships have been an integral part of Indiana government since the 1857 constitution. Each township elects an executive officer-the trustee, and three legislative officers- members of the township board. Each serve four year terms. Currently, as of 2019, the trustee is Dr. Robert A Lee, and the board members are Natalie Guest, Linda Koontz, and Steve Geiselman. The next election of officers will be in November 2022.[4]
