City of Bloomington, Indiana

closed: Resolved #185453

City Performance:

Other: Are the articles and news reports true that another sports/outdoors outfitter is going into the old marsh on east side and will be selling firearms? Are there not limitations on this commerce type in the city? If there isn’t, why aren’t legislators working on this. Yes we are in Indiana, but there are also ways to legislate at a local municipality level. Citizens would like to see progress on these major issues.
