<br />REPORT OF THE WAYS AND MEANS CCxy_RrITTEE
<br />To the Common Council
<br />of the Cit1r of South Bend:
<br />July 23rd, 1942
<br />Your committee on Ways and 11eans, who have been instructed to investigate the suggestion of the River Park Business
<br />Men's Association that the city of South Bend install a rubbish removal department, reports as follows:
<br />Your committee appreciates the fact that the removal of rubbish by the city would simplify this problem and be an
<br />important factor in keeping the City of South Bend cleaner and our streets in a safer condition.
<br />However, investigation develops that it would be next to impossible to procure the necessary truck equipment to take
<br />care of rubbish disposal, and further more it would necessitate an increase in the tax rate, which we are confident
<br />the citizens of South Bend would not approve, due to the fact that our people are already assessed high war taxes
<br />and are purchasing war bonds.
<br />Councilman Bishop made a motion to accept the report.

<br />CITY PLAN CCOUMISSION July 3, 1942
<br />To the Common Council
<br />City of South Bend, Indiana.
<br />Gentlemen:
<br />At the regular meeting of the City Plan Commission on July 2nd, the attached ordinance was recommended to your
<br />honorable body for passage.
<br />This ordinance is intended to give appropriate zoning classification to the four parcels of .land which were added
<br />to the city by Ordinances Nos. 3315, 3363, 3369 and 3381 and which have not yet been zoned.
<br />The accompanying map shows these several parcels in blue tint and marked with the section of the proposed ordinance
<br />applying to each parcel.
<br />As this is the original zoning of these annexed territories, this ordinance is initiated in the City Plan Commission
<br />without petition as is customary under such conditions.
<br />Yours truly,
<br />D. MOOMAW, Secretary
<br />
