LUECKE, MAYOR <br />DEPARTMENT OF LAW <br />CHARLES $. LEONE January 8, 2003 A.LnnEAN M. DEROSE <br />CITYATTORNEY CHIEF ASSISTANT CTTYATTORNEY <br />Ms. Karen White <br />President, South Bend Common Council <br />4"'Floor, County-City Building <br />South Bend, IN 46601 <br />Dear Ms. White: <br />Attached is a second Substitute Bi1188-02 which deletes much of the language of the <br />Statement of Purpose and Intent contained in the original Substitute Bill and which adds a <br />provision under Section II requiring that discussions between the City Administration and the <br />Common Council concerning sewer rates for 2005 and thereafter shall commence by June, 2004. <br />The changes to the Statement of Purpose and Intent were made at the suggestion of <br />certain large utility users. Because the Administration believes that the history of this Ordinance <br />is well documented, it is probably not necessary to include the history as part of the Statement of <br />Purpose and Intent. The Common Council has freedom to impose any rates now or in the future <br />that will assure the utility's "sound physical and financial condition." <br />Thank you for your favorable consideration of this substitute bill. <br />Sincerely, <br />Aladean M. DeRose <br />Chief Assistant City Attorney <br />AMD/cw <br />cc: Gary Gilot <br />Jack Dillon <br />John Nielsen <br />Paul Kempf <br />Dick Nussbaum <br />Robert Miller Sr. <br />THOMAS L.
