Dieter On May 25th seven (7) members of the South Bend Common Council sent a <br /> First District letter to the South Bend Redevelopment Commission regarding a request on <br /> Henry Davis, Jr.- their agenda for an additional $300,000 of TIF dollars for the construction of <br /> Second District the proposed Animal Shelter at 521 Eclipse Place. That letter was also sent to <br /> Mayor Luecke, Gary Gilot, Jeff Gibney and Catherine Toppel, so that all key <br /> Thomas LaFountain city departments would be involved in further discussions. The Redevelopment <br /> Third District Commission tabled that appropriation request. <br /> Ann Puzzello Much work and planning has gone into this proposed <br /> Fourth District understanding that on June 30'h, the Board of public Works <br /> again opened bids <br /> David Varner on the proposed construction of the Animal Shelter, with those bids coming in <br /> Fifth District well above the projected estimates. <br /> Oliver J. Davis We will soon be reviewing comprehensive documents related to the 2011 city <br /> Sixth District budget. I believe that the same due diligence which we use for budgetary <br /> Al "Buddy' Kirsits reviews is appropriate for proposed capital projects. <br /> At Large In the interest of finding an amicable and lasting solution for a comprehensive <br /> Timothy A. Rouse <br /> and fiscally responsible animal care, control and shelter program, I am At Large introducing this resolution. This would help provide a mechanism and <br /> opportunity for further discussion on this important community project. <br /> Karen L. White <br /> At Large Most sincerely, <br /> David A.
