Ind. Law - Several stories today about bills that have passed the General Assembly

"Legislature OKs clean water bill" is a long story in the Muncie Star-Press by Rick Yencer. He does not give the bill number, and I cannot locate the bill described.

Andy Grimm writes in the Gary Post-Tribune about passage of the puppy mill bill, HEA 1468.

Timberly Ferree reports in the Greene County Daily World:

Golf carts were brought to the forefront at the Bloomfield Town Council meeting Monday.

Council Member Aaron Hamm provided the details on the legislation that will allow golf carts to be driven in towns and cities -- which will be effective July 1.

The state approved legislation in April that will allow golf carts to be driven in towns/cities if there is a local ordinance allowing it, Hamm said.

Provisions within the legislation require the driver of the golf cart to have a valid driver's license and the vehicle to have insurance as well as a revolving red or amber light or slow moving vehicle sign, Hamm added.

The bill is HEA 1483.

As of these writing, all of these bills are awaiting the Govenor's action.
