SOUTH�\.N <br /> � •e ;:.,� {" may//�■• <br /> i/j,, `\ 1ii/w City of South Bend " <br /> _-, , <br /> /lii ,,f,',,`.-` '_ .;:a+,„;,...-,.` Joseph E. Kernan, Mayor <br /> \��\\\__ . <br /> Department of Administration and Finance <br /> Kevin C.Anion <br /> 1993 <br /> July 8, <br /> Mr. Stephen Luecke, President <br /> South Bend Common Council <br /> 4th Floor, County-City Building <br /> South Bend, Indiana 46601 <br /> Re: An Ordinance Amending Article 9 of Chapter 2 <br /> of the South Bend Municipal Code, Entitled <br /> "Human Rights Ordinance" <br /> Dear Mr. Luecke: <br /> I am attaching for filing an ordinance amending Article 9 of <br /> Chapter 2 of the South Bend Municipal Code, Entitled "Human Rights <br /> Ordinance." <br /> This Ordinance was comprehensively amended in July 1992, among <br /> other reasons, to conform South Bend's anti-discrimination law to the <br /> federal. Fair Housing Act, thereby providing citizens of South Bend <br /> with rights and remedies substantially equivalent to those granted <br /> under federal and state law. However, the South Bend amendments of <br /> 1992 did not include certain specific provisions of the Fair Housing <br /> Act, necessitating further amendment of the Ordinance at this time. <br /> Moreover, when this Ordinance was amended in July 1992, the <br /> definition of "handicapped" was expanded to parallel the definition <br /> of "disability" under the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA) , yet <br /> the term "handicapped" was retained in South Bend's Ordinance. <br /> Because federal and Indiana state law uniformly use the terms <br /> "disabled" or "disability," it is preferable to substitute in this <br /> Ordinance the more uniformly applied term "disabled" for the <br /> previously used term "handicapped." <br /> Your favorable consideration is requested. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Kevin . Horton <br /> Controller <br /> Attachment <br /> County-City Building • South Bend, Indiana 46601 • 219/284-9742 Fax 219/284-9892 <br /> Catherine A. Hubbard John D. Leisenring C. J.
