Here’s a look at some important public meetings scheduled in Gary in February 2024
Common Council
Early in Mayor Eddie Melton’s tenure, most city departments are under new leadership. Dwayne Halliburton, council member for the 2nd District, and Mark Spencer, councilman-at-large, are still transitioning into their new council roles. Tune in to see what the council has planned for the city this year.
Gary public schools
The Gary Community School Corporation has officially initiated its search for the district’s first superintendent in over five years. It’s worth monitoring the details the school board or MGT management reveals about the district’s superintendent search and any resulting community response.
