PARENT, Mayor <br />COUNTY -CITY BUILDING SOUTH BEND, INDIANA 46601 <br />December 3, 1980 <br />219/2849241 <br />Members of the Common Council <br />4th Floor Council Chambers <br />County -City Building <br />South Bend, Indiana 46601 <br />Dear Council Members: <br />Attached is a proposed ordinance amending Chapter 9, <br />Article 2 of the Municipal Code of the City of South <br />Bend. This proposed ordinance amends the Smoke <br />Detector Ordinance passed earlier this year by the <br />Common Council. The amendments are necessary to cla- <br />rify the ordinance so that it may be enforced. <br />We have received substantial evidence of cooperation <br />from the citizens of the City of South Bend in install- <br />ing smoke detectors in the dwelling units covered by <br />this ordinance. However, confusion has arisen as to <br />the required placement. This proposed ordinance, if <br />passed by the Common Council, would alleviate this <br />confusion and, in addition, would bring the require- <br />ments for smoke detectors into compliance with require- <br />ments of the Indiana Construction Rules and Regulations. <br />I shall be happy to answer any questions you may have <br />about this proposed ordinance. <br />RLH /ESS:az <br />Att. <br />Very truly yours, <br />d1___e <br />Richard L. Hill <br />City Attorney <br />
