from WFYI News Now

Indy Parks will offer free, public Wi-Fi at several parks across the city. The construction of some of the most historic buildings in Indianapolis is the focus of a new archival photo project. Governor Eric Holcomb signed a bill that critics say violates federal law when it comes to removing people from the voter rolls. Gov. Holcomb signed a controversial reading retention bill into law that holds back nearly all third graders who fail the state’s reading proficiency exam. Indianapolis welcomed seven new City-County councilors this year, among them Dr. Carlos Perkins, pastor of the oldest Black church in the city, Bethel Cathedral AME Church.
