The CACs (citizen advisory councils) are back! Read this Indy article to learn about the next era of community engagement approved by City Council earlier this month. If you want to stay up to date on city affairs and get together with neighbors to improve issues of local concern, CACs are worth checking out. Below is information about active CACs in District D and opportunities for getting your local group going again.
This is a map with the 19 original CACs. About half are active and the other half will have the opportunity to start anew.
