Box 1132 <br />South Bend, IN 46624 <br />ATTN: PEG LUECKE <br />RE: HISTORIC STREETLIGHTS ALONG RIVERSIDE DRIVE <br />Dear Ms. Luecke: <br />I have reviewed your letter of May 5th, with regards to <br />the streetlights on Riverside Dr. <br />As I have explained to the Historic Preservation <br />Commission, at the time of the knockdown of these lights there <br />were no old style lights available. I & M was within their <br />rights to install the fiberglass poles. Now that there are a <br />few old style lights available, I & M is not out of line in <br />asking for reimbursement to replace these poles. <br />Since this incident, the City has come to an <br />understanding with I & M that if an old style'light is knocked <br />down and there is no replacement available, not to install any <br />lights until they receive orders from us. <br />As far as the streetlights In City storage, this consists <br />of three (3) lights and poles. Once these are used up, we <br />have no more. <br />If you have any further questions regarding this matter, <br />please do not hesitate to contact me. <br />Sincerely, <br />Joseph J. Pluta, Director <br />Division of Engineering <br />JJP/slm <br />CC: Phil MCDonald, I & M Electric Co. <br />10 Richard Bennett, Riverside Dr. Historic Dist.
