CITY OF SOUTH BEND I OFFICE OF THE CLERK <br /> when the Building Department would get involved and inform them of the steps they would need <br /> to take for the new use. <br /> Councilmember Scott stated, Just to follow up on her question, we have a list from a City official <br /> of businesses that have no business license. So what is the process? Are they allowed to operate? <br /> Mr. Bulot replied, I don't know the answer to that question. I would say,technically, no. <br /> Councilmember Scott then asked, If you're part of the City after this budget, will you remain in <br /> the building that you are in? <br /> Mr. Bulot replied, Yes, we will. <br /> Councilmember Scott followed up,Does the office supply part of budget get assumed by the City? <br /> Do we know that yet? <br /> Mr. Bulot replied, I don't know the answer to that question yet. <br /> Councilmember Jake Teshka arrived at the meeting at 5:32 p.m. <br /> Councilmember Broden stated, I would really benefit from a process map of some sort because <br /> this is a re-organization. I would like to know what we are going from, what we are going to, and <br /> how that will benefit the end uses. Change is change but change needs to be with good outcomes <br /> and I guess I want to be sure that, when we are making these decisions, we all have that in mind. <br /> There is sufficient wrap-up time and changes that merit that. I would appreciate that. <br /> Committee Chair White stated, Councilmember Teshka, you have any questions? <br /> Councilmember Jake Teshka stated,No not at this time.
