Dieter <br />President - City of South Bend Common Council <br />County - City Building - Room 400S <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />Dear President Dieter: <br />Enclosed are two (2) copies of the South Bend Public Transportation Corporation's ( "Transpo's ") 2013 <br />Operating and Capital Budget. Due to a recent enactment of Indiana law, Transpo is required to submit <br />its proposed budget and tax levy to the City of South Bend Common Council (the "Council ") for adoption <br />by the Council. Specifically, Indiana Code § 6- 1.1 -17 -20 requires that Transpo, as a political subdivision <br />governed by a majority of unelected officials, submit its proposed budget and property tax levy to the <br />Council for adoption. Pursuant to I.C. § 6- 1.1- 17- 20(e), the Council should review Transpo's budget and <br />proposed tax levy and adopt a final budget and tax levy for Transpo. <br />I.C. § 6- 1.1 -17 -3 sets forth the publication requirements relating to the Council's adoption of Transpo's <br />budget and levy. Pursuant to this code section, the first publication of Transpo's budget must occur by <br />September 13, 2012 and the second publication must be made by September 20, 2012. <br />Transpo's Board of Directors will vote to approve the budget and levy after it is formally adopted by the <br />Council. Transpo's Board of Directors will vote to approve the budget and levy at Transpo's regularly <br />scheduled monthly Board meeting on October 22, 2012. <br />On behalf of Transpo's Board of Directors, the Council's assistance in this budget process is greatly <br />appreciated. As I have expressed to the City of South Bend's Controller, I am willing to assist in this <br />process in any manner whatsoever. Please contact me if you would like to discuss any aspect of the <br />adoption of Transpo's budget. <br />Sincerely, <br />&IL- , 47cit <br />Christopher Kubaszak <br />Controller, South Bend Public Transportation Corporation <br />'Filed in. <br />Office <br />AUG �4 <br />COT% CLEER4k- <br />t� In <br />(574) 232 -9901 .
