Gary Mayor suggests council needs to step up

We tend to cover Porter County more than the whole region, but for the rest of our Northwest Indiana readers the battle over trash pick up in the City of Gary has become quite the circus.

Last week the City Council voted against a contract to out-source trash pick-up. The problem is that the cities trash pick-up department was disbanded already and now no one is legally able to charge for trash pick up in Gary.

Mayor Clay is suggesting that it's time for the Gary city council to step up and say what it is they want. (via Times)
