Purpose:

It is the public policy of the city of Michigan City, Indiana to provide all of its citizens equal opportunity for education, employment, access to public conveniences and accommodations and acquisition through purchase or rental of real property including but not limited to housing, and to eliminate segregation or separation based solely on race, religion, color, sex, national origin, ancestry, handicap, or familial status since such segregation is an impediment to equal opportunity; and
