Grassroots Food Coalition Wants City Collaboration, Objection to Union Vote Overruled, Concern Over Coal Ash Standards, 9,000 Students in Indy Summer Learning Labs

The Indianapolis Community Food Access Coalition recently recommended new community members to a city commission. The National Labor Relations Board this week overruled an Indiana company’s objections to a successful union vote by its workers. The Environmental Protection Agency says the standard for cleaning up coal ash in the Town of Pines will now be a little more strict – but activists say some flaws still remain. At IPS Butler University Laboratory School 60 on the city’s near northside, nearly 300 students have been taking classes all summer.
