The <br /> proposal of $5 , 700. 00 was received from Koontz-Wagner which would be for <br /> 10 gauge wire and thus would meet the code requirements. <br /> Mr. Balsbaugh also noted that the sign to the Morris Civic Auditorium <br /> has shorted out and has been turned off with the approximate cost of <br /> repair being $2 ,000.00. The Century Center Board of Managers will look <br /> at this issue at its next board meeting. As a result there will be a <br /> further appropriation ordinance filed with the Common Council in the very <br /> near future. He also noted that the stage needs several improvements <br /> since many shows are outgrowing the size of our current stage. There <br /> are many producers who are unwilling to compromise or scale down the <br /> production thus the City of South Bend will lose such performances. <br /> He noted that Redevelopment has had a study done with the final report <br /> due in June of 1989 which studies this need utilizing buildings in the <br /> downtown area. <br /> Following further discussion Council Member Luecke made a motion <br /> seconded by Council Member Puzzello that Bill No. 21-89 be recommended <br /> favorably to Council. The motion passed. <br /> There being no further business to come before the committee, the meeting <br /> was adjourned at 3 : 45 p.m. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> Council Member Sean Coleman, <br /> Vice Chair Person <br /> Personnel and Finance Committee <br /> SC : srk <br />
