~ ~ ~ <br />PERFORMING ARTS CENTER * SOUTH BEND, IN <br />To: Redevelopment Commission <br />From: Dennis J. Andres /Executive Director <br />Subject: Jon Hunt Plaza 2009 Repairs <br />Date: February 19, 2010 <br />Reflecting on last summer and planning for this summer's Hunt Plaza events, I realized <br />that I had not thanked the Redevelopment Commission for its support. So, may I say <br />"Thank You" for approving funding for repairs and upgrades to the Jon Hunt Plaza /Park <br />and Fountain this past summer. Following the repairs/upgrades we have reduced, as <br />desired, the operating costs of approximately $10,000.00 to the actual summer '09 cost of <br />$3,260.00. An annual summer expense of approximately $3,500.00, for labor and <br />chemicals to maintain the fountain, is manageable for this summer. <br />Clearly the South Bend community appreciates the Jon Hunt Plaza and the various events <br />that occur there. So upkeep is a necessity. When in season, those casual lunches or <br />"Fridays by The Fountain" events mean much more when the fountain is in good working <br />order for all to enjoy. Again, thank you for your support. <br />DJA/kh <br />Morris Performing Arts Center • 21 I N.
