BAKER - With the passage of a new concealed carry law that allows any law-abiding citizen to own and concealed carry a gun without a license, local officials are hosting a meeting to field any questions residents may have. 

The meeting is being hosted Thursday night from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Baker Branch Library on Groom Road. District 4 council member Robert Young and Lt.
