They are aimed to enhance the overall process so that there is increased access, <br />knowledge, awareness and the opportunity to inquiry about the details of special rate contracts. <br />are considered for sewer customers, so that the Common Council would be timely apprised of <br />the details of such requests. <br />~~, t/er~~re, 6e i~ a~dai~zecG by the Common Council of the City of South Bend, <br />Indiana, as follows: <br />Section I.
