<br />stated there was $306,000 in this year's budget. She said that this is not a total figure as gaa:
<br />and other items are not included and asked if the Council plans to check this out. Councilman
<br />Miller said that a projection should be made by someone. David Wells, Assistant City Engineer,
<br />said that it is not possible to say how much gas it takes to run a Sanitation truck for one day
<br />since it varies. He said that gas accounts are put in the Municipal Services Facility budget and
<br />then charged to the departments as they are used. Councilman Kopczynski asked Mr. Wells what was
<br />included in the items Garage Supplies and Tires and Tubes in the 1972 budget. Mr. Wells said he
<br />could not give an answer because he was out of town when the budget items were approved. Council-

<br />this matter.
<br />RESOLUTIONS
<br />RESOLUTION A RESOLUTION TRANSFERRING $4,367.29 FROM ACCOUNT
<br />Y -531 TO ACCOUNT Y -54, WITHIN THE FIREMEN'S PENSION FUND.
<br />This resolution was read at the regular Council meeting of June 26, 1972 and held over for public
<br />hearing at this meeting. Councilman Parent made a motion to strike the resolution from the
<br />record, seconded by Councilman Miller. The motion carried unanimously.
<br />RESOLUTION NO. 314 -72 A RESOLUTION TRANSFERRING $4,453.94 FROM ACCOUNT
<br />NO. Y -531 TO ACCOUNT Y -54, WITHIN THE FIREMEN'S PENSION FUND.
<br />WHEREAS, certain extraordinary conditions have developed since the adoption of the existing
<br />annual budget so that it is now necessary to appropriate more money that was appropriated in
<br />the annual budger for Account Y -54 within the Firemen's Pension Fund; and
<br />WHEREAS, a surplus exists within Account Y -532, also within the Firemen's Pension Fund,
<br />NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SOUTH BEND, INDIANA:
<br />SECTION 1. That the sum of $4,453.94 be transferred from Account Y -532 to Account Y -54, both
<br />being within the Firemen's Pension Fund.
<br />SECTION II. This Resolution shall be in full force and effect from and after its adoption by the
<br />Common Council and approval by the Mayor.
<br />/s/ Terry S. Miller
<br />Member of the Common Council
<br />A public hearing was held on this resolution at this time. Fire Chief Jack R. Bland, as Chairman
<br />of the Firemen's Pension Fund, gave-the presentation. He said the resolution is necessary due to
<br />the culmination of a longevity suit filed in 1964. The court has mandated that back payments be
<br />made to retirees. The money for these payments is to be taken from Account Y -531 and transferred
<br />to Account Y -54, both being within the Firemen's Pension Fund. Miss Guthrie asked why there was
<br />a difference in account numbers in the Resolution, Y -531 in one place and Y -532 in another.
<br />Chief Bland said that this was an error and that the correct Account Number should be Y -532.
<br />Councilman Miller moved to amend the title and Section 1 of the Resolution to change the account
<br />number to Y -532. Councilman Taylor seconded the motion to amend and it was carried. Councilman
<br />Parent made a motion that the resolution be adopted, as amended, seconded by Councilman Taylor.
<br />The motion passed unanimously.
