LUECKE, MAYOR <br /> BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS <br /> April 20, 2011 <br /> Mr. Derek Dieter <br /> President, South Bend Common Council <br /> 4t'Floor, County-City Building <br /> South Bend, IN 46601 <br /> Re: Resolution Approving Block Party Procedures and Application Fee <br /> Dear President Dieter: <br /> Attached for Common Council consideration and approval is a Resolution approving <br /> Board of Public Works (BPW) Resolution No. 21-2011. The most significant effect of BPW <br /> Resolution No. 21-2011 is to establish a standard application form and a non-refundable <br /> application fee of$25.00 for each special event, such as a block party, where the public right-of- <br /> way is closed to vehicular traffic. <br /> The BPW has estimated the City's cost of this process to be around $162.00 per event <br /> (see attachment), and with the increase in these applications, the cost has become significant. An <br /> application fee of$25.00 is just a fraction of the City's costs, and the BPW believes it to be a fair <br /> and reasonable assessment for users of this service. <br /> I will present this Resolution to the Common Council at its meeting on April 25, 2011 <br /> and will answer any Council questions or concerns at the Committee meeting earlier that <br /> afternoon. We appreciate the Council's consideration of this Resolution. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Z�A <br /> Gary Gilot <br /> Director, Department of Public Works <br /> GARYA.GILOT,P.E.
