MICHIGAN CITY — Michigan City has set in stone its contribution of about $12 million to the proposed Double Track project for the South Shore commuter line.
The Michigan City Common Council voted unanimously Tuesday to pay $7 million up front and finance the remainder of its share with proceeds of a 20-year bond issue. An overflow crowd of mostly project supporters witnessed the vote.
