(La Porte, IN) - The mayor of La Porte still plans to give the annual state of the city address.  The state of the city address was scheduled for Friday at La Porte Municipal Airport.  However, it was cancelled due to the rise in COVID-19 cases.

But, Mayor Tom Dermody said he will give a video presentation of his state of the city address.  The date for that to occur has not been set.

“Our team is thinking outside the box to find ways to share information with residents in a safe and creative way. The City of La Porte has some incredible things happening and we won’t let COVID-19 stop our momentum,” he said.
