The Indianapolis City-County Council is considering two proposals to address the needs of people unhoused in Indianapolis.

The 2023 budget for the city of Indianapolis invests in public safety, infrastructure, education and property tax relief.

The project is possible because of a new state statute that approves property tax exemptions for affordable housing with a PILOT, or payment in lieu of taxes.

The additional funding will allow the Department of Public Works to address some of the worst roads in Marion County.

City-County Council members will be paid more under a newly passed proposal.

A Rules and Public Policy Committee this week passed a nearly $20,000 pay raise proposal that would bump compensation to more than $31,000.

New funding options in the environmental realm could create opportunities for parks, urban canopy and other green projects.

Redistricting in Marion County is complete after a vote Monday night at the City-County Council meeting.

There are calls for more engagement as new Indianapolis City-County Council district maps move closer to being finalized.

Ethan Evans is in his first term representing District 4 on the northeast side of Indianapolis.
