Council President Michael Opinker presided. City Clerk Robert J. Golec facilitated. PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE was recited by all. ROLL CALL PRESENT: Markovich, Spitale, Venecz, Kalwinski, Uylaki, Higgs, Emerson, Hinojosa, Opinker ABSENT: None TOTAL: 9 PRESENTATION BY THE HONORABLE CONGRESSMAN PETER J. VISCLOSKY Congressman Visclosky - President, thank you very much and I do want to thank all of the members of the council, our clerk is here, chief executive officer is here, for the opportunity to briefly address you or relative to the expansion of the South Shore in Northwest Indiana. My preference in the time we have is also to address any questions you may have, any concerns that you may have. I do appreciate the invitation but as may have been communicated to the council office, I’m Vice Chair of the Congressional Steel Caucus, we have a hearing in Washington tomorrow morning at 8 a.m. and United Airlines waits for no one. So I will, unfortunately, have to depart at 7 p.m. I would begin simply by saying as a life long resident of Northwest Indiana, I look across our area and recognize, with the exception of our weather on occasion, there’s no place I’d rather live in the United States. We make more steel in two counties than any state in the nation. We have the largest inland oil refinery in the United States of America.

Michael Opinker - The last Council Meeting on the 25th of July, I didn’t realize that was going to be my last Council Meeting as Council President. Being Councilman for 6 plus years has been a great experience for myself and thanking all of you folks for the trust that you put in me as being President for the last four and half years. It’s been a learning experience. There was a lot of times that we all didn’t agree on certain things but then there was a lot of times, you know, we battled for what’s right. Like I says, I respect everybody’s decision in what we’ve concluded in our decisions as Council President and passing of hundreds of ordinances and resolutions. First of all I’d like to thank my constituents. If it wasn’t for all my constituents in the 5th District I wouldn’t have had that opportunity to act as their Councilman in the 5th. My Precinct Committee people and all of you, starting with Mayor McDermott.

The methodology for the evaluation process was described in the Alternatives Evaluation Process and Criteria Technical Memorandum. The Level 1A Coarse Screening was conducted in workshop format with the Program Team on January 24, 2013. For each subsection, a description of known physical, operational and environmental constraints was provided. A pass/fail screening approach was applied to all subsections. The screening approach identified those subsections that were infeasible and thus were eliminated from further consideration.

  • Hammond Indiana DRAFT Fair Housing Assessment Executive Summary
    Hammond Indiana DRAFT Fair Housing Assessment Executive Summary INTRODUCTION The City of Hammond is committed to fair housing for all of its residents. The City’s Human Relations Commission is a testament to the City’s commitment to fair housing. By investing in the Human Relations Commission, the City of Hammond is one of only fifty-one local governments in the nation to achieve a substantial equivalence certification from HUD, meaning the City enforces a law that provides substantive rights, procedures, remedies and judicial review provisions that are substantially equivalent to the federal Fair Housing Act. The City of Hammond is also committed to providing the greatest level of opportunity to all of its residents. In April 2015, the City passed ordinance 9293 which prohibits discrimination based upon sexual orientation and gender identity in employment, housing, services and accommodations. The goal of this document, the Assessment of Fair Housing (AFH) for the City of Hammond, Indiana, is to identify fair housing issues within the City’s jurisdiction, identify potential contributing factors to fair housing choice, and recommend actions that the City and its partners can take to eliminate or remedy the identified issues and contributing factors. At the heart of the AFH is an analysis and evaluation of housing patterns for the City and the region. This includes an assessment of demographic patterns, the degrees of segregation and integration of members of each protected class, the overlap between concentrations of poverty in predominantly minority neighborhoods, and disparities in opportunities based on limited housing choice. The AFH also evaluates the current capacity of government and fair housing advocates to uphold fair housing rights through outreach and enforcement efforts.
