City Council approved most bills in 2018

(Darrin Wright/1190 WOWO 107.5 FM)

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WOWO): The Fort Wayne City Council seemed to all be on the same page for most of their votes last year.

The Journal Gazette reports the Council passed 295 measures in 2018, and 112 of those received unanimous “yes” votes.

Councilman Dr. John Crawford told the paper that’s because aside from Electric Works and the so-called “pay-to-play” ordinance, most of those measures were on nonpartisan things like road construction.

Councilman Jason Arp gets the distinction of voting “no” the most last year, opposing 82 bills, usually those having to do with tax abatements.
