Details:

Carmel City Council will highlight International Women’s Day (observed on March 8) by inviting women who work in various city departments to attend the meeting (in their uniforms), and watch as two young Carmel residents present their petition asking the City to ban the use of “Men at Work” construction signs. The girls, ages 9 and 11, wrote to Council President Sue Finkam to make the request to ban the signs. The Council will consider a resolution to do that, an action that is largely symbolic as the federal government and state of Indiana already do not permit usage of these signs. However, the Council felt it was important to indicate to those working in our community how we expect others to be treated.

City of Carmel government meetings are broadcast live on the City's website as well as local access television.
