INDIANAPOLIS — An Indiana House committee plans to consider Senate-approved proposals for reorganizing local government.
Democratic Rep. John Bartlett of Indianapolis says the Government and Regulatory Reform committee that he leads will hold an initial hearing on the issues Tuesday.
Republican Gov. Mitch Daniels proposed several recommendations that he says would streamline local government, including having a single county executive and eliminating township government. Several of the proposals struggled in the Senate, getting watered down or killed outright.
Bartlett says he’s not sure whether his committee will vote on anything Tuesday.
