Portage City Hall is currently receiving overwhelming support from the Portage residents on its efforts to assist Gary with snow plows during their crisis, and for that Mayor James Snyder is grateful.
. Residents have even offered financial aid. Snyder believes in the residents of Portage and today is just another day he is proud to be their Mayor.
We will always assist our neighbors in crisis; and each time we, do our City workers stand a little taller. Portage has the best workforce a Mayor could ask for, and they were proud to help.
Gary Mayor Karen Freeman-Wilson also deserves credit for her commitment to Gary and building relationships with neighboring communities. Our friendship and commitment to our children’s futures will stand the test of time. Without her strong, positive relationship, this assistance in crisis would not have been realized.
For many, the word “regionalism” is a lot of talk; for the Cities of Portage and Gary, it is action.
