Department of Public Parks <br />Administration Building <br />St. Louis Boulevard at Wayne Street <br />South ,Bend, Indiana 46617 <br />PHONE: (219) 284 -9401 <br />September 6, 1983 <br />Mrs. Beverlie Beck, President <br />South Bend Common Council <br />County -City Building <br />227 West Jefferson Boulevard <br />South Bend, Indiana <br />Dear Mrs. Beck: <br />The Department of Public Parks is requesting the Common Council to <br />approve an ordinance selling two acres of land off the west end of <br />Voorde Park. <br />The Board of Park Commissioners, on June 20, 1983, adopted a res- <br />olution stating that a portion of Voorde Park is no longer needed <br />for public use or park purposes and set August 2, 1983 for a public <br />hearing on said resolution. <br />At the August 2, 1983 meeting, there were no written or oral remon- <br />strances against the selling of the Voorde Park property and the Park <br />Board adopted a resolution expressing determination for sale of <br />certain real estate owned by the City of South Bend for park purposes. <br />Although the Park Board is usually against the selling of any park owned <br />land, the Board felt that the selling of a small unused portion of <br />Voorde Park would be in the best interest of the City of South Bend. <br />Your approval of the enclosed ordinance will be appreciated. <br />Very truly yours, <br />D NT OF P I PARKS <br />ames R. Seitz, <br />Superintendent <br />JRS:kb <br />
