Action, Inc. recently leased two portable classroom buildings from the South Bend Community School Corporation and intends to use the buildings as a Community Neighborhood Center for LaSalle Fillmore. This will assist in reducing the rental and utility costs of operating the Center in its present location. The CDBG funds would be utilized for remodeling materials for the inside and outside of the classroom buildings and parking lot construction materials and represent only a portion of the total costs involved. The interior remodeling would include dividing the building into rooms, lighting,and handicap accessibility. The exterior remodeling would include roofing, siding, dead bolt locks, outside lighting, and materials for parking lot construction.
