REGULAR MEETING JUNE 20, 1988 <br />Mr. Robert Rosenfeld, Deputy City Attorney, was present and <br />advised that over the years, due to lack of funds, the buildings <br />and grounds at Safetyville in Rum Village Park have deteriorated <br />to the extent that it has been impossible to use the facility for <br />training for children because it was not safe. The Pilot Club, <br />who initially helped to develop Safetyville, has come to the aid <br />of the City through the Mayor's Traffic Commission at this time. <br />Mr. Rosenfeld commended all involved including Commission members <br />and its former Chairperson Loretta Duda and the University <br />Civitan Club who have agreed to raise funds and renovate <br />Safetyville and put in back into shape so it can be used again. <br />Mr. Rosenfeld stated that the Board previously entered into an <br />Agreement with the Pilot Club for this purpose but now <br />the University Civitan Club is joining the effort. Mr. Rosenfeld <br />strongly recommended passage of this Agreement and informed the <br />Board that this Agreement will also be submitted to the Board of <br />Park Commissioners for approval at their meeting this afternoon <br />as the property on which Safetyville is located is in Rum Village <br />Park. <br />In response to Ms. Humphreys' question, Mr. Rosenfeld stated that <br />the Agreement outlines the range and scope of services to be <br />provided. <br />Mrs. DeClercq stated that the Board recognizes and is grateful <br />for the willingness of both clubs to become involved and only <br />through their efforts will the City be able to provide these <br />types of programs. Ms. Humphreys stated that she is in full <br />concurrence and agreement with Mrs. DeClercq's statements. <br />Therefore, upon a motion made by Ms. Humphreys, seconded by Mrs. <br />DeClercq and carried, the Agreement as submitted was approved and <br />executed. <br />APPROVE INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENTS - RE: ETHNIC FESTIVAL PARADE <br />Submitted to the Board were Indemnification Agreements between <br />the City, the Holladay Corporation, Crowe, Chizek and Company, <br />Teachers Credit Union and the South Bend Community School <br />Corporation in conjunction with the Ethnic Festival Parade. <br />The Indemnification Agreements indicate that the City wishes to <br />utilize the Holladay Corporation and Crowe, Chizek & Company <br />property for disassembly of the Ethnic Festival Parade on July 2, <br />1988, the Teachers Credit Union parking lots for parade viewing <br />and vendor parking associated with the Ethnic Festival on July 2 <br />and 3, 1988 and the lots and restrooms at the South Bend <br />Community School Corporation's School Field on Saturday, July 2, <br />1988 for Ethnic Festival activities. <br />The Indemnification Agreements further indicate that the City <br />agrees to hold harmless the above named entities for any <br />liability which may arise as a result of the use of the property <br />by the City. <br />Upon a motion made by Ms. Humphreys, seconded by Mrs. DeClercq <br />and carried, the Indemnification Agreements as submitted were <br />approved and executed. <br />APPROVE ETHNIC FESTIVAL BOOTH APPLICATIONS <br />Ms. Katherine Humphreys, Director, Administration and Finance, <br />submitted to the Board the following eleven (11) additional <br />Ethnic Festival Booth applications and recommended approval: <br />FOOD BOOTHS: <br />South Bend Police Department <br />
