-- The South Bend City Council voted Monday to override Mayor James Mueller’s veto of a resolution urging a pause on the proposed Midwest Continental Divide Trail.
It called for a pause on the trail proposal while emphasizing greater resident input and fiscal responsibility.
The trail proposal originated at the Indiana Statehouse as a potential use of funds connected to the state’s agreement with the Pokagon Band.
Some North Liberty residents have argued that the trail proposal moved too quickly and that they were not given enough opportunity to weigh in.
The council’s override does not end the broader discussion surrounding the proposed trail, which remains in the planning and development process.
