Kernan, Mayor <br /> 111. 1865 ' <br /> South Bend Common Council <br /> John Voorde Ann Puzzello Thomas Zakrzewski <br /> President Vice-President Chairman, Committee of <br /> the Whole <br /> June 8, 1988 <br /> Members of the Common Council <br /> 4th Floor County-City Building <br /> South Bend, IN 46601 <br /> Dear Council Members: <br /> I am introducing the attached Bill in my capacity as <br /> Chairman of the Human Resources and Economic Developement <br /> Committee. This Bill would amend the city's tax abatement <br /> procedures which are located in Chapter 2, Article 6 of the <br /> Municipal Code. <br /> The Bill basically incorporates changes required by the <br /> passage of Public Law Number 56-1988 dealing with economic <br /> revitilization areas. It also incorporates the requirement <br /> that a petitioner must provide the principal business <br /> activity number and description given to the proposed <br /> project by the Internal Revenue Service. It is my belief, <br /> that this additional information will assist the Common <br /> Council when reviewing a petitioner's request for tax <br /> abatement. This information would be taken in conjunction <br /> with the "Standard Industrial Classification Manual Major <br /> Group Number" which has been a requirement of our local <br /> procedures for the past several years. <br /> It should also be noted that in addition to this Bill being <br /> filed, that the forms of petition for both real and personal <br /> property, the instruction manual for tax abatement, and the <br /> forms of resolution for each type of abatement have also <br /> been modified. With the passage of this Bill, all of the <br /> local rules and regulations will be in conformity with State <br /> law. <br /> County-City Building • South Bend, Indiana 46601 • 219/284-9321 <br /> • Stephen Luecke Donald Niezgodski William Soderberg Ann Puzzello Linas Slavinskas <br /> First District Second District Third District Fourth District Fifth District <br /> Thomas Zakrzewski Sean Coleman Loretta Duda John Voorde Kathleen Cekanski-Farrand <br /> Sixth District At Large At Large At Large Council Attorney <br />
