Answered for Danville, Hendricks County (county seat) County.
When soil lifts in an arc, the root plate is rotating out of the ground. The tree is not settling and it is not adjusting to the wind — anchorage has partly failed and the root mass on the far side is levering the ground upward. This is the one sign on this list that describes a failure already in progress rather than a condition that might eventually cause one. Gradual root-raised turf means the opposite: roots simply growing near the surface, with no loss of anchorage and no hazard. In Danville — Danville Main Street Historic District and Danville Courthouse Square Historic District included, that's normally a emergency tree service job at $500–$3,500. Call tonight.
Duke Energy Indiana serves the town and the area south and east, per the IURC's service-territory GIS; just north of Danville the territory becomes Hendricks Power Cooperative, an REMC. Danville runs municipal water, wastewater and stormwater — roughly 3,500 water customers in Center Township — but not electric. Worth knowing: 170 IAC 4-9's two-week-notice and 25-percent-canopy-consent rules are written for investor-owned utilities and name Duke, AES/IPL, I&M, NIPSCO and CenterPoint — not the REMCs.
The Main Street Historic District developed circa 1844–1920 across just 9 acres and 37 contributing buildings, and the Courthouse Square district circa 1865–1960 over 70 acres — those blocks hold the town's oldest and largest trees on narrow lots with sidewalks on both sides. Danville does actively manage its right-of-way canopy through a standing Tree Advisory Committee, though the specific inventory and replanting-ratio requirements attributed to Chapter 97 could not be verified.

No permit is required to remove a tree on private property in Danville. Beyond that, the town's Chapter 97 tree code could not be verified from a retrievable source: what danvillein.gov does confirm is that a three-member Tree Advisory Committee exists to encourage the planting, care and preservation of trees in the public right-of-way. Chapter 97 is reported to require written permission from that committee and the Staff Project Coordinator before removing, or trimming more than one-fifth of, any right-of-way tree, on a free 30-day permit — confirm that requirement with Town Hall before any work in the tree lawn.
