(La Porte, IN) - Citizens will be given a chance to meet one on one with the mayor of La Porte every week.

 

“Minutes with the Mayor” will begin Thursday at City Hall from 8 a.m. top 9 a.m.

 

Mayor Tom Dermody said he will take one person at a time to address complaints or concerns and listen to any ideas or possible solutions that might be shared.

 

Dermody said it’s a good way for people who might not want to speak during public meetings and on social media.  

 

“We just want to make sure your voice is being heard,” he said.

 

Dermody said people are asked to be respectful during their time with him and must be residents of the city.

 

“We’ll want to be as specific and to the point as possible so we can get as many people in,” he said.

 

Dermody said there will be changes in the days and times of the sessions with advance notice given on social media and on the radio.
