Peter H. Mullen <br />Director, Administration and <br />Finance <br />July 18, 1978 <br />CITY of SOUTH BEND <br />PETER J. NEMETH, Mayor <br />COUNTY -CITY BUILDING SOUTH BEND, INDIANA 46601 <br />Members of the Common Council <br />City of South Bend <br />4th floor County -City Building <br />South Bend, Indiana <br />Dear Council Members: <br />219/284 -9742 <br />There will be presented for first reading on July 24, 1978, an ordinance <br />appropriating the sum of $6,000.00 from the Revenue Sharing Trust Fund, to <br />be used in a rodent control project. As you may have read in the newspapers <br />recently, the City through the St. Joseph County Health Dept. has undertaken <br />an emergency rodent control program in (3) three areas of the City. They are: <br />LaSalle Park, the Cooper Triangle, and the Coquillard area. <br />This action was deemed necessary because of the alarming increase in rodent <br />sightings and, therefore, complaints. Upon inspecting the designated areas, <br />Health dept. officers reported a large increase in rat holes. Dr. McCraley, <br />St. Joseph County's Health Officer felt that emergency action was warranted <br />by the conditions found. <br />If you have questions in this matter, please feel free to contact my staff or <br />my office. <br />Sincerely, <br />TJee H. l en <br />oller <br />Director - Administration & Finance <br />
