<br />WHEREAS, THE CHICAGO SOUTH SHORE AND SOUTH BEND RAILROAD (hereinafter called the

<br />over the streets of South Bend, and 
<br />WHEREAS, the City of South Bend is experiencing population growth and increased 
<br />vehicular traffic along and upon its streets, and 
<br />WHEREAS, -said increased vehicular traffic is complicated and made more hazardous by 
<br />the presence of the RAILROAD'S tracks across and along the streets of South Bend and the opera- 
<br />tion of the RAILROAD'S trains along said tracks, and 
<br />WHEREAS, it is the belief and conviction of the COMMON COUNCIL of the City of South 
<br />Bend that the traffic problems of the City and the congestion upon the streets over which the 
<br />RAILROAD operates its trains will be improved and lessened by the removal of the tracks and 
<br />the rail traffic thereon,
