With us in the studio is Post-Tribune reporter Javonte Anderson and by phone are his Post-Tribune colleagues Carrie Napoleon and Greg Tejeda and -- from the LaPorte Herald-Argus and Michigan City News-Dispatch -- reporter Jon Gard.

Other topics covered this week include a vote by East Chicago City Council going "on record" as opposing the U.S. EPA's disposing PCBs and other toxins scooped from the city's industrial canal in an open-air facility -- A replacement East Chicago City Council member -- Lake County Council and Sheriff John Buncich on more assistance to the County Jail's mental health unit -- and which streets and roads in Gary are getting resurfaced this summer, the first year of a five-year improvement program supported, in part, by local funding.
