Hamilton County Mosque Zoning Issue
February 1, 2018
Today, John Krull talks with some of those close to a controversial zoning issue in Carmel. A group of Muslims living in Hamilton County proposed a new mosque at a site in a residential suburb.

Both parties made their case at a recent well-attended city council meeting (http://bit.ly/2DNkHvP), and a decision could come this month. Our guests will be Adam Aasen, a reporter in Carmel, Ron Carter, a Carmel Councilman, Juvaria Khan, an attorney with Muslim Advocates and Wafa Safi a teacher.
