Flooding Cleanup, Bloomington Plex Amendment Reactions | Indiana Newsdesk

Right now on  Indiana Newsdesk:

Bloomington received a month’s worth of rain last weekend, flooding businesses and displacing a number of residents. Ahead, we look at the impact on the community and what the City is doing to prevent it from happening again.

Plexes were recently approved in Bloomington neighborhoods zoned for single-family housing. However, some residents felt left out of the process.

And eight students are suing Indiana University over its vaccine mandate for this fall. But IU remains confident in the legality of the requirement.

Those stories and the latest news headlines from across the state, Friday at 6 on  Indiana Newsdesk.
